Middle Atlantic EVO FLR BX Surf CVR W FLR Insert - EFB45CTCAA

Middle Atlantic EFB45CTCAA EVO Series Floor Box Surface Cover with Floor Insert

Overview

The Middle Atlantic EFB45CTCAA is the surface-style cover assembly for the Evolution Series (EVO) EFB45 raised floor box, finished in brushed aluminum. If you are running structured cabling, power, or AV feeds through a raised floor environment — data centers, boardrooms, control rooms, or open-plan offices with access floors — this cover completes the floor box installation with a low-profile surface mount profile that sits flush against the floor tile cutout rather than recessing below it. The EFB45CTCAA includes the floor insert, giving you everything needed to close out the box in a single part number.

TAA compliance is confirmed for this SKU, making it a straightforward choice for federal, state, and local government projects subject to the Trade Agreements Act, as well as GSA Schedule procurements where country-of-origin documentation is required.

Key Features

• Surface Cover Style: the surface profile keeps the cover plate above the floor plane rather than flush-recessed — easier to service and re-open after the floor tile is reinstalled, which matters on raised access floors where repeated access is expected.
• Brushed Aluminum Finish: a commercial-grade metal finish that holds up to foot traffic and wheeled equipment without the scuffing or crazing you get from painted steel covers; matches standard brushed-aluminum floor tile trim in most raised-floor environments.
• Standard Receptacle Type: configured for standard receptacle cutouts, so it pairs with the common duplex or modular insert options in the EVO EFB45 family without requiring custom bezels or adapters.
• Floor Insert Included: the kit ships with the floor insert — you are not sourcing the cover plate and insert separately, which reduces the chance of a size or finish mismatch on install day.
• TAA Compliant: verified compliant with the Trade Agreements Act for this SKU (EFB45CTCAA), supporting procurement on government contracts and GSA schedules without additional country-of-origin waivers.

Integration & Compatibility

The EFB45CTCAA is designed as the cover assembly for the Middle Atlantic EVO EFB45 raised floor box platform. Verify your specific floor box model number against Middle Atlantic's EFB45 series compatibility matrix before ordering — the cover style (surface vs. recessed) and receptacle type must match the box body and the inserts you intend to populate. This cover is intended for raised access floor applications; it is not designed for poured-concrete or below-grade installations. For floor box accessories and related infrastructure components, confirm tile cutout dimensions match the EFB45 footprint prior to installation.

Ted Perry

The EFB45CTCAA is the surface-style cover for Middle Atlantic's EVO EFB45 raised floor box — the detail that often gets overlooked until the floor tiles go back down. The brushed aluminum finish and surface-mount profile are the two specs that matter most at install time: surface style means you can pull the cover without disturbing the tile, and the metal finish survives the kind of repeated service access you see in control rooms and network operations centers where the floor gets opened every few months.

Technical Highlights:

• Surface Cover Style: lifts clear of the floor plane, so re-access on a raised floor does not require prying against the tile edge — a real time-saver on quarterly infrastructure audits.
• Brushed Aluminum Finish: holds up to rolling cart and chair traffic without cosmetic degradation; consistent with standard raised-floor tile trim finishes used in most commercial data center and AV control environments.
• TAA Compliance (verified for EFB45CTCAA): government and GSA-schedule projects can spec this part directly without a separate country-of-origin review — compliance is confirmed at the SKU level, not assumed from the product family.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm the cover style (surface, not recessed) matches your floor box body and tile cutout depth before ordering — swapping cover styles after tile installation is a disproportionately disruptive correction on a finished raised floor.
• The standard receptacle type works with the common EVO EFB45 insert options, but if your project specifies custom or non-standard insert configurations, verify fitment against Middle Atlantic's current EFB45 insert compatibility list before procuring in quantity.

Best fit for control rooms, network operations centers, and government facilities on raised access floors where TAA compliance is a hard procurement requirement and the floor box will be serviced more than once over the installation's life.
