Abstract

An interface module supportable by a support member includes a housing, having an upper portion defining an access opening and a lower portion, and an interface assembly. The interface assembly is mounted to the upper portion at the access opening. The interface assembly includes an interface device, the interface device having an electrical connection element. The lower portion is placeable in a first orientation spaced-apart from the upper portion to provide substantially unhindered access to the electrical connection element, and in a second orientation secured to the upper portion to define an open region between the lower portion and the interface assembly. Examples of the interface device include a utility power interface device, a reduced power electrical interface device, a USB device, an audiovisual interface device, a data interface device, and a communication interface device. The interface module can include rows of interface assemblies overlying the same open region.
