Fellowes Desk In Slide - 2x power, USB-A/C, HDMI & Cat6A silver

An ode to the Fellowes Desk In Slide

Curtain up, curtain down

In the theatre, the curtain only opens when the show begins. The Fellowes Desk In Slide works exactly the same way: two panels slide aside and there are power, USB, HDMI and network, ready for their part. Once the meeting is over, the curtain closes again. (Applause is welcome, but not required.)

Why the Fellowes Desk In Slide?

Everything for a meeting in one compartment

The Fellowes Desk In Slide is a built-in power unit with HDMI, network and USB for meeting tables and desks. You get two earthed type F sockets, a USB-A and a USB-C charging port, and an HDMI and a Cat6A connection. Laptop on power, phone on the charger and your screen on the monitor or projector: you sort it all from one spot in the table top.

Two sliding panels instead of a lid

The connections of the Fellowes Desk In Slide sit under two panels that you slide aside. So nothing flips up above the table top. With the panels closed, all you see is a neat strip of 284 by 100 mm. Handy on a meeting table that holds laptops one moment and only coffee cups the next.

Charging via USB-A and USB-C

The USB-A and USB-C ports of the Fellowes Desk In Slide charge at up to 20 W. That's enough for phones, tablets and earbuds. You charge a laptop via its own power cord in one of the two sockets.

How to use it

HDMI and network: cables on both sides

The HDMI and Cat6A connections of the Fellowes Desk In Slide are couplers. Under the table top you connect a cable to the screen or the network, and on top you plug in the cable from your laptop. Those HDMI and network cables don't come with the Fellowes Desk In Slide, so do factor them in.

The connection cable

The Fellowes Desk In Slide has a 1.8 metre cable with a 3-pin connector. You plug a connection cable with a mains plug into it, which you can order at the top of this page in 1, 3 or 5 metres. Already have a suitable connection cable with a 3-pin connector? Then choose "None".

Ergonomic benefits

A built-in power unit won't change your posture, but the Fellowes Desk In Slide does save you bending down and searching under the table for a free socket or an HDMI cable. Everyone at the table connects from their chair. That makes a meeting room you share with others a lot more pleasant to use.

Also worth knowing

Measure before you cut

For the Fellowes Desk In Slide, you cut a 270 x 72 mm opening in the table top. The unit is 62.3 mm high. So check that there's no frame, drawer or cable tray in the way under the table top at that spot. Also leave room for the HDMI and network cable you connect underneath.

Pros and cons

• Power, USB, HDMI and network in one compartment
• Sliding panels, nothing flips up
• Narrow 72 mm cut-out
• Available in black and in black with silver panels
• Less ideal if you want to charge a laptop via USB-C
• Less ideal if you don't want to cut your table top

In short: the Fellowes Desk In Slide is a built-in power unit with HDMI and network for meeting tables and desks. Important: 270 x 72 mm cut-out, HDMI and network cables are sold separately.
