ABSTRACT:
A flush-mounted multi-service floor outlet, to provide electrical power and multiple voice/data access jack outlets has a unitary, longitudinally compartmented cylindrical metal housing for location in penetrating relation through a cement floor. The power, voice and data connections are normally routed through the ceiling space of the underlying room and are sealed within conduits that are threaded into a base portion of the metal housing. The outlet housing is dimensioned to achieve a nominal fit within a standard sized hole drilled through the concrete floor, and to provide a minimal diametrical clearance with the drilled hole as to render the installation effectively fireproof. A threaded retaining nut may be used to secure the outlet housing in place. Internal compartment partitions isolate the respective ones of power, voice and data conductors and terminations, the partitions being withdrawable so as to provide effective access and facilitate installation and servicing of the respective services. The slim, substantially planar top face of the outlet fits effectively flush with the usual carpet floor covering.
