About the HSA 822MS Hideaway Enclosures
The Extron HSA 822MS is a furniture-mounted, motorized
architectural solution for computer video interface connector
access and control. The top (table) surface of the HSA can be
made from the portion of the furniture that is removed for the
HSA installation to provide an inconspicuous appearance
(figure 1-1).

The HSA 822MS provides space for four double space (double-
height) or eight single space Extron Architectural Adapter Plates
(AAPs), two standard grounded AC power receptacles, and four
RJ-45 (Category [CAT] 6) connectors. The HSA is available in a
US version, with US power receptacles, and an international
version. Several different types of power receptacles are
available for the international version, including UK, French,
Israeli, Australian, Indian, European, and Swiss receptacles.
The motorized action is remotely controlled by contact closure.
The control mechanism uses discrete high or low signals to
report the HSA's up or down position. Safety devices prevent
injury and equipment damage.

HSA 822MS • Introduction
The installed enclosure fits flush within a table or podium top,
storing the AAPs and connectors out of the way and out of
sight. To access the AAPs and connectors, the user touches a
button, send s a control system command, or presses down on
the top of the enclosure. A stepper motor slowly raises the
AAPs and connectors into view.
The AAP spaces and RJ-45 connectors are arranged back-to
back, while the AC receptacles are back-to-back on the sides
perpendicular to the AAPs.
A cable inside the enclosure connects the user AC receptacles to
an IEC connector on the underside of the enclosure. The same
power cable supplies the stepper motor that drives the panel up
and down.
Cables inside the enclosure route the front panel RJ-45 signal
lines to RJ-45 connectors on the underside of the enclosure.
With an optional conversion kit, one or more of the RJ-45 (data)
lines can be converted to an RJ-11 (telephone) line.
