Middle Atlantic 6AT2PAVGY 6-In Prewired AV Poke-Thru Device Flush Cover
Overview
The Middle Atlantic 6AT2PAVGY is a 6-inch prewired AV Evolution poke-thru device with a flush cover in gray finish, designed for recessed floor or surface installations in commercial AV and structured-cabling environments. It ships in a gray (GY) color variant and carries TAA compliance — relevant for federal, state, and government-funded projects where Buy American / Trade Agreements Act sourcing is a procurement requirement. If you are specifying for a GSA schedule or government contract, the 6AT2PAVGY checks that box without a waiver process.
The device body measures 7.25 in (18.4 cm) in both height and width, with a depth of 16.25 in (41.3 cm) — plan your floor or surface cavity accordingly before ordering. Overall installed dimensions run 11.5 in × 11.5 in × 19.5 in (292.1 × 292.1 × 495.3 mm), which determines the cutout and plenum clearance you need at the install site. Confirm floor/wall thickness and cavity depth against these numbers before committing to this unit versus a shallower-body poke-thru option.
The flush cover style keeps the surface profile low and clean — appropriate for conference rooms, boardrooms, training spaces, and open-plan offices where a raised or domed cover would be a trip hazard or aesthetic issue. Flush-mount poke-thrus in this class are typically deployed at table-center or floor-box positions in AV-integrated meeting environments, providing cable management and connection access without exposed conduit or surface raceways.
Middle Atlantic's AV infrastructure and enclosure line is well-established in commercial integrator workflows. The 6AT2PAVGY fits within the 6AT prewired AV Evolution poke-thru family, which is designed for drop-in deployment alongside AV furniture and mounting infrastructure. For structured-cabling planning guidance, consult a cable management resource to verify conduit routing and floor-cavity compatibility before installation. Integrators sourcing power and connectivity accessories for the same installation should verify jack module compatibility with the prewired harness included in this unit.
Key Features
- Flush Cover Style: keeps the installed surface at floor or table level — eliminates the raised-cap profile that causes trip hazards and ADA concerns in high-traffic conference and training spaces.
- TAA Compliant: qualifies for GSA Schedule purchases and government-funded AV projects without requiring a country-of-origin waiver — a hard requirement on many federal and state contracts.
- Compact Face Dimensions (7.25 in × 7.25 in body): fits standard commercial poke-thru cutout patterns; the 11.5 in × 11.5 in overall footprint is the spec to confirm against your floor tile or table cutout template.
- 16.25 in depth: requires adequate below-floor or in-wall cavity — verify plenum and structural clearance before rough-in; shallow-cavity sites may require a different model.
- Gray (GY) finish: matches standard commercial carpet tile and conference furniture finishes; specify the correct color variant at order time since cover finish is not field-swappable post-installation.
- Prewired AV Evolution platform: factory-terminated harness reduces on-site termination time and the associated risk of field-wiring errors in tight floor-box cavities.
Integration & Compatibility
The 6AT2PAVGY is part of Middle Atlantic's 6AT prewired AV Evolution poke-thru series. Confirm jack module compatibility and harness configuration with the prewired assembly before ordering — module selection determines which AV, USB, or power connections are available at the box face. Verify cutout dimensions (11.5 in × 11.5 in overall) against your floor box or table cutout template, and confirm the 16.25 in body depth clears all structural and plenum obstructions in the cavity below.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Middle Atlantic 6AT2PAVGY TAA compliant?
A: Yes. The 6AT2PAVGY is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, making it eligible for GSA Schedule and government-funded AV project procurement without a country-of-origin waiver.
Q: What are the installed dimensions of the 6AT2PAVGY?
A: The overall installed dimensions are 11.5 in × 11.5 in × 19.5 in (292.1 × 292.1 × 495.3 mm). The device body itself is 7.25 in (H) × 7.25 in (W) × 16.25 in (D).
Q: What cover style does the 6AT2PAVGY use?
A: It uses a flush cover style, which keeps the installed surface profile low — suitable for conference rooms and open-plan spaces where a raised cover would be a hazard or aesthetic concern.
Q: What color is the 6AT2PAVGY?
A: The 6AT2PAVGY ships in gray (GY) finish. Confirm you are ordering the correct color variant at time of purchase, as cover finish is set at the factory.
Q: How deep a floor or wall cavity does the 6AT2PAVGY require?
A: The device body is 16.25 in (41.3 cm) deep. Ensure your floor or surface cavity provides at least this clearance, plus any required plenum or structural buffer, before specifying this unit.
The spec that drives most 6AT2PAVGY install decisions is the 16.25 in (41.3 cm) body depth — I've seen integrators order this unit and then discover on rough-in day that their raised-access floor cavity is only 12 inches deep. Measure the cavity before you spec the poke-thru, not after. Beyond that, the 6AT2PAVGY's TAA-compliant designation is what moves it onto government AV bids where a gray flush-cover poke-thru would otherwise require sourcing documentation nobody wants to chase down mid-project.
Technical Highlights:
- Overall footprint 11.5 in × 11.5 in: matches standard commercial floor-box cutout templates — no custom millwork needed in most raised-access installations.
- Flush cover profile: eliminates the raised cap that creates ADA and trip-hazard flags in occupied conference and training spaces — a meaningful detail on occupied-space retrofits.
- TAA compliance: hard-requirement on GSA schedule and federal AV contracts; the 6AT2PAVGY meets it without a waiver, which keeps procurement moving.
Deployment Considerations:
- Verify the 16.25 in body depth against your actual floor cavity before rough-in — this is the most common mismatch on poke-thru installations and is not correctable on-site.
- The gray (GY) finish is factory-set; if your project specifies a different cover color, order the correct variant at time of purchase — there is no field-swappable cover option confirmed in the evidence.
The 6AT2PAVGY is the right call for government-funded conference room builds and corporate AV integrations where TAA compliance is a contract requirement and a flush, low-profile floor connection point is specified — not a general-purpose poke-thru for every application.
