A modular furniture panel including a bracket including a plurality of telecommunications connectors. The bracket is positioned within the modular furniture panel and provides an interconnection point for routing telecommunication cable from a telecommunications closet to the work area. The bracket may be fitted with a variety of telecommunication connectors to accommodate different cable types (copper, optical fiber, co-axial, etc.). Panel covers conceal the bracket and cable located in the interior of the panel. Areas on either side of the bracket are used for cable management including storage, routing and/or splicing of cables.

Modular furniture interconnection panel

A rotatable grommet for opening or closing access to a panel opening. The rotatable grommet is a C-shaped grommet having a grommet opening approximately the same size as the access area of a panel opening. The rotatable grommet includes a post that engages an arched slot formed in the panel. The ends of the arched slot define the open and closed positions for the rotatable grommet. The rotatable grommet includes a handle having handle protrusions that ease rotation of the rotatable grommet. At least one latch establishes friction between the rotatable grommet and the panel opening so that the rotatable grommet will not be inadvertently opened or closed.
