Middle Atlantic EFB6810BTCBK EVO Floor Box Surface Cover — Black
Overview
The Middle Atlantic EFB6810BTCBK is a black surface-mount cover designed for the EVO Floor Box (EFB) series. If you're finishing a conference room, command center, or AV-integrated workspace where floor boxes are already installed, this cover provides a clean, low-profile close-out with a standard receptacle configuration — no recessed pocket, no flush-mount complexity. The EFB6810BTCBK ships in black to coordinate with dark flooring finishes and dark-trim furniture common in modern enterprise spaces.
TAA compliance means this cover qualifies for federal, state, and local government procurement — a requirement on many GSA schedule purchases and DOD facility projects. Country of origin is India, meeting Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) TAA requirements for covered end products.
Key Features
- Surface Cover Style: the surface configuration sits on top of the floor box rather than flush with the floor — simpler installation in retrofit situations where cutting a flush opening is not practical or desired.
- Standard Receptacle Type: accepts standard receptacle inserts, so you're not locked into proprietary modules. Coordinate with the rest of your EFB series populated inserts without sourcing special-format components.
- Black Finish: coordinates with dark-finish raised flooring, dark carpet tile, and black furniture legs common in operations centers and AV-integrated boardrooms. Reduces visual distraction in camera-monitored spaces.
- TAA Compliant: qualifies for government and federally funded projects subject to Trade Agreements Act requirements — avoids procurement rejection on covered contracts.
- EVO Floor Box Series Compatibility: designed for the Middle Atlantic EVO Floor Box line. Verify your specific EFB model number before ordering — cover fit is series-specific.
Integration & Compatibility
The EFB6810BTCBK is part of the Middle Atlantic floor box accessory ecosystem. It is engineered to mate with EFB-series floor boxes and accepts standard receptacle inserts. If your installation requires a flush-mount cover or a cover in a different finish color, verify the correct cover SKU against your floor box model — Middle Atlantic offers multiple cover styles within the EFB line. For AV and structured cabling installations requiring power, data, and AV pass-through in a single floor box, pair this cover with the appropriate insert kit for your outlet and connector configuration.
For enterprise deployments requiring TAA-compliant infrastructure throughout — including network switches, patch panels, and cable management — this cover aligns with procurement requirements without requiring a waiver.

The EFB6810BTCBK is a straightforward surface cover for Middle Atlantic's EVO Floor Box series — the spec that matters most on a procurement like this is TAA compliance. If you're outfitting a government facility, a federally funded project, or any contract that flows down FAR TAA requirements, the EFB6810BTCBK's confirmed TAA status keeps your BOM clean without requiring a country-of-origin waiver.
Technical Highlights:
- TAA Compliant: country of origin is India — a TAA-designated country — which satisfies FAR 25.4 requirements for covered end products on federal contracts without an exception.
- Surface Cover Style: sits over the floor box rather than flush with the floor, which reduces the precision required during installation in retrofit concrete or raised-floor environments — no flush cutting needed.
- Standard Receptacle Type: works with standard insert modules, so you're not sourcing proprietary inserts. Coordinate with other EFB series covers and inserts across a multi-box installation without mixing module formats.
Deployment Considerations:
- Confirm the EFB floor box model number before ordering — cover fitment is series-specific within the Middle Atlantic EVO line, and a mismatch means a return.
- The surface mount profile adds height above the floor plane; in high-foot-traffic areas, verify that the raised profile meets your ADA and trip-hazard requirements before specifying surface over flush.
Best fit for government operations centers, federal command rooms, and TAA-required AV integration projects where floor box infrastructure needs to meet procurement compliance without custom sourcing.
