Ballroom Floor Box Withstands Heavy Loads, Offers Capacity and A/V Flexibility

Legrand/Wiremold has introduced new floor boxes for audio/video applications that withstand the heavy loads associated with wheeled vehicles in locations such as hotel ballrooms, exhibition halls, convention centers, entertainment venues, and museums.  These boxes feature rugged construction, including heavy-duty covers, and provide ample capacity for audio/video devices.  New CCBBS Series small ballroom floor boxes are designed for above-grade (CCBBS) and on-grade (CCBBS-OG) concrete floors.    

CCBBS Series small ballroom floor boxes are based on an open A/V system that accommodates devices from a wide range of manufacturers such as Ortronics, Extron Electronics, Crestron, and others.  They offer plenty of capacity with up to 12 gangs of proprietary and industry-standard faceplates.  These floor boxes also feature designed-in features for ease of installation, including a minimum of 3" of wiring capacity behind each device face plate, ¾" to 2" trade size knockouts, and a removable/repositionable divider for separation of services.

The heavy-duty cast aluminum cover has been designed and tested to meet static loads of 25,000 lbs.  The cover, which has a self-closing handle, rotates 180° to provide full access to the interior of the box.  Two large cable egress areas offer plenty of capacity and flexibility for wires and cables.  Covers designed for carpet installations maximize carpet and minimize the amount of metal showing. 

TopGuard™ protection prevents water, dirt and debris from entering the floor box compartments and devices.  CCBBS Series floor boxes have been UL listed to U.S.  and Canadian safety standards for carpet, tile, and wood covered concrete floors.
