DESCRIPTION |
 |
|
Ace Backstage Co., Inc.'s extra-large capacitiy use Super Double Wide Horizontal Panel Stage Pockets are the same size as the ACE Double Wide Pockets with Back Box except they provide almost 2X the "Connectivity" capacity using a Horizontal Panel Design. The basic construction incorporates 3 sub-assemblies: 1) A unique Trim-Bezel lid assembly with spring loaded hinge pins, 2) Two hinged cableway slot closures that mount directly to the Pocket Body Back Box, 3) A set of panel mounting brackets installed in the Super Double Wide Pocket Body Back Box (#BRK102BBX Back Box).
The Super Double Wide Pocket features welded heavy duty steel construction, choice of 2 decorator oven cured powder coat finishes (for the trim-bezel lid assembly), 2 lid choices (Standard Lid (SL) and Carpet Lid (CL)), plus solid brass or solid stainless steel trim bezel lid assembly finishes. Add a host of stock prefabricated or custom audio, communications, control, data, electric, video, and voice panels and connectors for a complete Stage Pocket System. The in-floor appearance is the same as the Double Wide Pocket.
The Super Double Wide Stage Pocket has the panel capacity for either:
• (8) #PNL-100 Series "Connectrix" Panels or
• (8) #PSW-100 Series Switchcraft® Panels or
• (4) #PNL-120 Series "Connectrix" Panels or
• (2) #PNL-140 Series "Connectrix" Panel or
• (8) #PE Series Single Gang Electric Duplex Switch Box Panels or
• (4) #FP3E Series Triple Gang Electric Duplex Switch Box Panels
The Super Double Wide Stage Pocket has the connector capacity for either:
• (48) "Connectrix" Connectors or
• (48) Neutrik® Connectors or
• (48) Switchcraft® Connectors or
• (50) "Connectrix" Connectors (using the #PNL-1425 Panel w/ center bar breakout)*
All ACE Super Double Wide Stage Pockets Trim-Bezel Lid assemblies are heavy duty welded steel construction, with a 1/8" (nominally 11 ga. (.120")) thick CRS steel Lid and Mounting Flange. The 14 ga. (.071") thick CRS steel Super Double Wide Pocket Body Back Box is precision die formed and jig welded. The Super Double Wide Stage Pocket resists bending under even the most severe stage loads.
Removable spring loaded hinge pins permits easy exchange of lids for carpet lids, locking lids, standard lids, and other custom application lids. A generous cable way slot of 3/8" x 16" permits easy cable exit from the stage pocket, even for large gauge cables. Two attached cableway slot channel closures close the slot when not in use. The Super Double Wide Stage Pocket has an easy installation into 10" x 18" cutout in the stage floor. Open easy access from top of the Super Double Wide Stage Pocket to connector panels makes for easy installation.
A scratch/wear resistant finish, oven cured powder coat is electro-staticly applied inside and outside the entire trim-bezel lid assembly. Decorator neutral Antique Copper Vein or Textured Black finishes are standard. A Solid Brass Lid and Mounting Flange as well as Solid Stainless Steel Lid and Mounting Flange are also available by special order. The Super Double Wide Pocket Body Back Box comes with a clear zinc finish (Mil Spec QQ-Z-325E Type I, Class II). The Super Double Wide Stage Pocket's solid rubber Lid Stops cradle the lid to prevent lid rattle.
Utilizing ACE's "Connectrix" System will allow mounting of up to 50 "Connectrix", Neutrik®, Switchcraft®, and/or Custom Connectors* in the Super Double Wide Stage Pocket. The Horizontal Panel Design in the Super Double Wide Pocket is designed for extra high capacity connectivity.

Generous combination conduit knockouts on four sides provides in-out-and-thru ways for both low voltage and AC electric cabling. Generous clearances above and below the panel(s) permit easy termination and access to an array of audio, video, data, communication and control connections.
ACE's Super Horizontal Panel Stage Pocket Systems offer "Connectivity" Solutions with a flexible, reliable, and simplistic design. The flexible design of the Super Double Wide Horizontal Panel Stage Pocket Lid and Mounting Flange along with the Super Double Wide Pocket Body Back Box, when used in combination with Custom and Prefabricated Aluminum "Connectrix" (Neutrik®/Switchcraft® combo cutout) Panels, Switchcraft® Panels, and our large selection of "Connectrix" (Neutrik®/Switchcraft® combo cutout), Switchcraft®, and Custom Connectors allow the Stage Pockets to be installed in many different applications.

Connectors using the generous rectangular “Connectrix” cutout will add to a growing array of adapter-mounted standard connectors. The adapter mount is plastic and provides ground isolation between the panel and connector.Click on the links above for our current selection of stock “Connectrix” system connectors.
When ordering, please specify model number and type of connector as well as panel model number (#PNL-100 Series, #PNL-120 Series, #PNL-140 Series, or #PSW-100 Series) the connectors will be loaded into. *NOTE: Specific High Density (HD) and Sub-D pattern connectors will require either 2 or 3 “Connectrix” Horizontal Spaces or 2 or 3 “Connectrix” Vertical Spaces, depending on connectors selected.

“CONNECTRIX” SYSTEM PANEL DESCRIPTION
Many pre-cut stock #PNL-100 Series, #PNL-120 Series, #PNL-140 Series “Connectrix” System connector panels and #PSW-100 Series Switchcraft® connector panels are available for the Super Double Wide Stage Pocket. Standard "Connectrix" and Switchcraft® Panels are created from high strength, tough, aircraft aluminum alloy (6061-T6) that is 1/16" (.062") or 1/8" (.125") thick. The standard panels mount with (4 or 6) self-tapping screws. Each panel is CNC machined to precisely mate with the designated connectors and in the pocket mounting holes. Each Standard "Connectrix" and Switchcraft® Panel is finished with oven cured semi-gloss black powder coat.
Most panels provide header space for custom engraving which is fast and easily accomplished on a separate dedicated CNC engraving machine. The finished panels show bright aluminum in the engraved characters and need not be back filled. ACE standard panels are flat, strong, and rigid like the typical thinner mild steel panels. Because the panels are machined and not punched they stay flat and undistorted unlike punched panels which distort in the punching process. The machined “Connectrix” style cutouts combine popular mounting patterns of the Neutrik “D” series and Switchcraft “E” series connectors with a generous rectangular cutout that mates with a growing array of adapter-mounted standard connectors. The adapter mount is plastic and provides ground isolation between the panel and connector.
Using the “Connectrix” system panel it is possible to mount any combination of modular jacks (RJ45, RJ11 etc.), BNCs, dual RCAs, mic jacks, speaker jacks and numerous other standard connectors without a single custom punch. This system provides for more connectors and mounting options in stock standard ACE panels. The benefit is faster order turn around and lower cost. Less custom fabrication for custom spec results with off-the-shelf stock prices.
