Wiremold® Floor Box now Accepts Round Poke-Thru-Style Cover




Legrand/Wiremold now offers a six-compartment floor box with the same 8" round cover as the popular Evolution™ Series Poke-Thru device. This gives designers the option of a round cover as well as the ability to have matching covers when Wiremold® Resource RFB6E Series floor boxes and Evolution Poke-Thru devices are used in the same space.

Resource RFB Series floor boxes are versatile activation solutions that provide power, communication, and audio/video services to open space areas or directly to workstations. Large openings provide full access to all compartments and ample space to make connections, an important consideration especially for audio/video installers.

RFB6 Series Floor Boxes are also available with new FloorPort™ rectangular activation covers, as well as round Evolution covers. These covers incorporate TopGuard™ protection to prevent water, dirt, and debris from entering the power and communication device compartments. These covers are UL Listed to U.S. and Canadian standards for tile, terrazzo, carpet, and wood floors. Covers are available in nickel, brass, bronze, black, and gray.

High-Capacity Work Surface Portals


Legrand/Wiremold has introduced high-capacity work surface portals that provide convenient table-top access to electrical, voice, data, video, and audio services. Evolution™ Series work surface portals are based on the design of the popular Evolution™ Series poke-thru device. These robust units have the capacity to accommodate large devices and cabling, yet install unobtrusively into any table top.

Evolution Series work surface portals differ from many table-top products in that the cover is fully closed, even when computers, projectors, and other equipment are plugged in and in use. The cover assembly features two unique spring-loaded slide cable egress doors that provide access without using flip lids, doors, or pop-ups. Power receptacles and voice, data, and A/V connections are mounted below the table surface, which protects the connections and minimizes obstructions on the table surface.

Evolution Series work surface portals are available in 6" or 8" sizes. Other options include surface- or flush-style and cord-ended or hard-wired versions. Solid, die-cast aluminum covers feature durable, powder-coated colors: nickel, bronze, brass, gray, and black.
