Wiremold ALTP-2S - ALTP Series Aluminum Tele-Power Pole

The ALTP-2S from the ALTP Series delivers a sleek, high-performance solution for integrated power and data distribution in modern spaces. Crafted from satin anodized extruded aluminum, this tele-power pole combines durability with a refined aesthetic suitable for conference rooms, classrooms, lecture halls, and commercial environments. Its two-compartment design keeps power and communications organized, while factory wiring provides reliable, ready-to-use outlets. With a length of 10'5" (3.2 m), the ALTP-2S offers flexible placement along walls or ceilings and minimizes clutter by routing cables through dedicated channels. Whether you’re upgrading an existing space or outfitting a new build, this pole brings clean lines, simple maintenance, and dependable performance to every installation.

• Premium construction and finish: Satin-oxidized, corrosion-resistant aluminum ensures long-term resilience in busy environments. The nominal material thickness is.060" (1.5 mm), delivering a sturdy profile that maintains its appearance even with heavy daily use.
• Ideal length with dual channels for organization: At 10'5" (3.2 m), this pole spans broad areas while providing two separate channels—one dedicated to power and one for communications—so cords remain neatly separated and accessible for service or upgrades.
• Ready-to-use power with multiple outlets: Factory-wired with four 15A 125V NEMA 5-15R receptacles, the ALTP-2S ensures you have ample, conveniently placed outlets for laptops, projectors, displays, and peripheral devices without the need for extensive field wiring.
• Dedicated communications knockout for clean data routing: A single 1/2" (12.7 mm) trade size knockout in the base cover provides a clean entry point for data cabling, enabling a streamlined integration of network, audio-visual, or signaling lines alongside power.
• Versatile mounting and flexible installation: Designed with mounting versatility in mind, the ALTP-2S supports T-bar mounting for suspended ceilings and is suitable for wall-mount configurations where space dictates. The two-channel design simplifies servicing, upgrades, and future reconfigurations while preserving a professional look.

How to install Wiremold ALTP-2S

Installing the ALTP-2S is designed to be straightforward in professional environments, with emphasis on safe electrical practices and clean cable management. Follow these steps to achieve a neat, compliant installation that maximizes accessibility and minimizes disruption to surrounding spaces. Always adhere to local electrical codes and engage a licensed electrician for critical or high-load configurations.

• Plan and assess: Identify the best mounting location—along a wall line for easy outlet access or in a ceiling zone where ceiling mount is preferred. Confirm there is adequate clearance for service access, and determine the routing path for both power and communications cables.
• Prepare mounting surfaces: For suspended ceiling installations, ensure the T-bar grid is aligned and sturdy. For wall installations, select appropriate mounting brackets or anchors compatible with the wall material. Have mounting hardware, cable guards, and grommets ready to protect cables at entry points.
• Mount the pole: Install the ALTP-2S using the approved mounting method for the chosen configuration. If using T-bar mounting, secure the pole to the grid with the recommended fasteners, ensuring the pole is plumb and stable. For wall-mount setups, attach brackets per the manufacturer’s guidelines and verify the pole is securely anchored.
• Route power and data cables: Open the two-compartment channels and route electrical conductors in the power channel, keeping high-current cables separated from communication lines. Use proper separators, spacers, and cable ties to prevent movement, abrasion, or interference.
• Connect outlets and KO: Verify the four NEMA 5-15R receptacles are connected to a dedicated 125V circuit and properly terminated. If you plan to utilize data, connect communications cabling through the 1/2" KO at the base, using suitable grommets or bushings to maintain cable integrity and safety.
• Test and finalize: Once wired, restore power and test each outlet for proper voltage and grounding. Check data continuity where applicable, confirm the pole is secure, and replace any covers. Clean the surface and document the installation for maintenance records and future service planning.
