Crestron® One-Touch Cable Retractors (FT2A-CBLR-1T Series) offer a refined cable management solution for use with Crestron FT2 ELEC FlipTop Series. Each cable pulls out smoothly up to 5 ft (1.5 m), and retracts gently back into the FlipTop™ with the touch of a button. The button on each module is backlit for visibility in a darkened room and is labeled with an international symbol icon indicating the connection type.
Automate one-touch retractors by connecting the retractors in a FlipTop to a control system and a switch or to a DMPS via a single Cresnet cable. Custom programming can trigger all the cables to retract after five minutes of no video being detected.
The retractor mechanism allows for a compact design that is ideal for applications where vertical clearance is limited beneath the table.
Each One-Touch Cable Retractor is composed of a retractor enclosure and pass-through module. The enclosure attaches to the FlipTop chassis beneath the table, while the module installs in the top of the FlipTop. A cable tail is provided below the table for connection to a DM® transmitter or similar interface device.1
The pass-through module occupies two module slots within the FlipTop. The retractor enclosure slides onto the side of the FlipTop chassis beneath the table and locks into place with a snap. Retractors normally install at the left and right ends of a module row but may also be installed in the middle of a row by adding an FT2A-CBLR-BRKT series mid-row adapter bracket (one per row, each sold separately).
The following one-touch, retractable HDMI® cable is offered:
FT2A‑CBLR‑1T-HD: 10.2 Gbps HDMI cable with a male HDMI Type A connector at both ends.
The following 4K compatible cables offered feature a minimum TMDS bandwidth of 18 Gbps to support ultra high-definition digital video signals up to 4K60 4:4:4. Active circuitry is employed for optimal performance.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑DP: DisplayPort™ cable with a male DisplayPort connector at both ends.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑DP‑HD: Cable with a male DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table and a male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the table; converts DisplayPort to HDMI to allow connection of a DisplayPort source to an HDMI input.1
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑MDP‑DP: Cable with a male Mini DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table and a regular-sized male DisplayPort connector at the sink end below the table; converts Mini DisplayPort to standard DisplayPort to allow connection of a Mini DisplayPort source to a DisplayPort input.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑MDP‑HD: Cable with a male Mini DisplayPort connector at the source end above the table and a male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the table; converts Mini DisplayPort to HDMI to allow connection of a Mini DisplayPort source to an HDMI input.1
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑4K‑USBC‑HD: Cable with a male USB Type-C® connector at the source end above the table and a male HDMI Type A connector at the sink end below the table; converts USB-C to HDMI to allow connection of a USB-C source to an HDMI input.1
A USB-C power module is available to support charging devices:
FT2A-CBLR-1T-USBC-PWR: USB Type-C cable with a male connector at the source end above the table and a male USB Type-C connector at the sink end that connects to a third-party USB power supply. Supports up to 60 W of power for charging devices only (does not transfer video or data).
NOTE: Crestron does not offer a USB power supply. A third-party power supply must be used with the device.
Additional models are available to support analog and data signals. These cable retractors are passive.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑VGA: VGA cable with a male HD15 connector at both ends; supports resolutions up to Full HD 1080p.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑AUDIO: Unbalanced stereo audio cable with a male 3.5 mm mini-TRS connector at both ends.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑CAT6: CAT6 LAN cable with a male RJ‑45 connector at both ends.
- FT2A‑CBLR‑1T‑USB: USB 2.0 cable USB Type-A male to USB Type-B male under the table to support connection to a codec or extender.
NOTE: FT2A‑CBLR‑1T series retractors are only compatible with FT2 ELEC series FlipTops. They are not compatible with FT2 MECH series FlipTops. See also the FT2A‑CBLR‑GR Series Gravity Cable Retractors for a lower cost alternative.
