About the Extron AVTRAC 480C Low Profile Floor-Mount Raceway System for Power, Data, + AV Connectivity
The Extron AVTRAC 480C is a comprehensive, low-profile floor-mount raceway system engineered to manage and distribute power, data, and audio-visual connectivity in modern collaborative spaces. Unlike simple cable channels, it is a modular, integrated solution designed for permanent installation in conference rooms, training facilities, and corporate boardrooms where floor-based access to utilities is required. The system's primary purpose is to provide a safe, organized, and aesthetically pleasing pathway for a wide array of cables while offering convenient, flush-mounted user access points at table or seating locations. Its low-profile design minimizes tripping hazards and visual obstruction, blending seamlessly with commercial flooring to maintain a professional room aesthetic.
The raceway system is constructed from durable, high-impact materials and features a multi-channel design that physically separates power, data, and AV cabling. This segregation is critical for preventing electromagnetic interference, ensuring signal integrity for sensitive AV and network signals, and complying with electrical and building codes. The AVTRAC 480C includes specialized, modular connector plates that can be configured with various Extron or industry-standard fittings, such as power outlets, HDMI ports, USB data ports, and network jacks. These service modules are designed for tool-less installation and replacement, allowing for easy reconfiguration as room technology needs evolve over time.
Installation and scalability are key strengths of the system. The raceway sections interlock to create continuous runs that can be cut to length on-site, accommodating rooms of various sizes and layouts. It is designed to integrate with floor boxes and can transition to wall or furniture pathways. The cover plates sit nearly flush with the floor surface and are available in a range of finishes to match flooring materials. By consolidating all necessary connectivity into a single, organized, and code-compliant floor system, the Extron AVTRAC 480C eliminates unsightly and hazardous cable sprawl, providing a reliable, flexible, and future-proof infrastructure for technology-enabled spaces.
