Abstract
A poke through fitting extending through an aperture in a floor, comprising a housing having a top surface, a portion of the housing received within the aperture in the floor. At least three electrical outlets are received within the housing, each of the outlets being accessible through at least one access opening in the top surface of the housing. Additionally, at least five telecommunication jacks are coupled to the housing.
Claims31
A poke through fitting extending through about a four inch diameter aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface, a portion of said housing received within the about four inch diameter aperture in the floor;
- at least three electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said outlets being accessible through at least one access opening in said top surface of said housing;
- and
- at least five telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing.
A low profile electrical fitting extending through about a four inch diameter aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface and a bottom surface, said bottom surface extending at least partially into the about four inch diameter aperture in the floor;
- at least six telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing;
- four electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said outlets being accessible through said top surface of said housing;
- and
- a cover coupled to said housing, said cover having a substantially planar surface that is generally parallel with the floor;
- said four electrical outlets having an uppermost surface and said at least six telecommunication jacks having an uppermost surface, said uppermost surfaces of said four electrical outlets and said at least six telecommunication jacks being generally parallel with the floor and extending in about the same plane as said substantially planar surface of said cover.
A low profile poke through fitting extending through about a four inch diameter aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface, a portion of said housing received within the about four inch diameter aperture in the floor;
- eight telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing and arranged adjacent the perimeter of said housing, a portion of each of said eight telecommunication jacks being received within the aperture in the floor;
- four electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said four electrical outlets being accessibly through said top surface of said housing;
- a cover coupled to said housing, said cover having a substantially planar surface that is generally parallel with the floor;
- a tubular wiring conduit coupled to said housing;
- and
- at least one substantially ring-shaped intumescent fire barrier coupled to said wiring unit;
- said four electrical outlets having an uppermost surface and said eight telecommunication jacks having an uppermost surface, said uppermost surfaces of said electrical outlets and said telecommunication jacks being generally parallel with the floor and extending in about the same plane as said top substantially planar surface of said cover.
A low profile poke through fitting, comprising:
- a housing having a central axis;
- a substantially circular array of electrical outlets coupled to said housing and having a center substantially aligned with said central axis of said housing;
- and
- a substantially circular array of telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing, having a center substantially aligned with said central axis of said housing, and being spaced radially farther from said central axis than said circular array of electrical outlets, wherein two telecommunication jacks are positioned between each adjacent electrical outlet.
A poke through fitting, comprising
- a housing having a top surface with an inner portion and an outer portion;
- a first electrical outlet being located at least partially within said inner portion and having a first radial line extending from a center of the top surface though said first electrical outlet;
- a second electrical outlet being located at least partially within said inner portion and having a second radial line extending from said center axis though said second electrical outlet, said first and second electrical outlets being adjacent to each other and said first and second radial lines defining a first segment in said top surface, said first segment spanning less than 180°;
- and
- at least two telecommunication jacks being located in between said first and second electrical outlets in said first segment.
A poke through fitting extending through an aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface and a central axis, a portion of said housing received within the aperture in the floor;
- at least three electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said outlets being accessible through at least one access opening in said top surface of said housing;
- and
- at least five telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing, at least a portion of each jack being located within about two inches from the central axis of said housing.
A low profile electrical fitting extending through an aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface, a bottom surface and a central axis, said bottom surface extending at least partially into the aperture in the floor;
- at least six telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing, at least a portion of each said jack being located within about two inches from the central axis of said housing;
- four electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said outlets being accessible through said top surface of said housing;
- and
- a cover coupled to said housing, said cover having a substantially planar surface that is generally parallel with the floor;
- said four electrical outlets having an uppermost surface and said at least six telecommunication jacks having an uppermost surface, said uppermost surfaces of said four electrical outlets and said at least six telecommunication jacks being generally parallel with the floor and extending in about the same plane as said substantially planar surface of said cover.
A low profile poke through fitting extending through an aperture in a floor, comprising:
- a housing having a top surface and a central axis, a portion of said housing received within the aperture in the floor;
- eight telecommunication jacks coupled to said housing and arranged adjacent the perimeter of said housing, a first portion of each of said eight telecommunication jacks being received within the aperture in the floor and at least a second portion of each said jack being located within about two inches from the central axis of said housing;
- four electrical outlets received within said housing, each of said four electrical outlets being accessibly through said top surface of said housing;
- a cover coupled to said housing, said cover having a substantially planar surface that is generally parallel with the floor;
- a tubular wiring conduit coupled to said housing;
- and
- at least one substantially ring-shaped intumescent fire barrier coupled to said wiring unit;
- said four electrical outlets having an uppermost surface and said eight telecommunication jacks having an uppermost surface, said uppermost surfaces of said electrical outlets and said telecommunication jacks being generally parallel with the floor and extending in about the same plane as said top substantially planar surface of said cover.
