Middle Atlantic NM Four Tracjack Bezel BO - PBB4TJWH

Middle Atlantic PBB4TJWH Non-Metallic Four TracJack Bezel Box

The Middle Atlantic PBB4TJWH is a white, non-metallic four-port bezel box engineered specifically for use with Ortronics TracJack and Series II modules. Measuring 3-1/4" L x 3" W x 3-1/4" H, this compact enclosure accommodates both communication and power wiring in structured cabling installations — making it a practical termination solution for AV, data, and security infrastructure in commercial and institutional environments. If you're specifying a clean, compliant wall or surface outlet point for TracJack deployments, the PBB4TJWH is the direct fit.

Key Features

• Non-Metallic Construction: Plastic housing eliminates the EMI interference risk associated with metallic bezels in proximity to sensitive communication lines — relevant when running data and low-voltage signal in the same outlet cluster.
• Four-Port Capacity: Accepts up to four TracJack or Series II modules in a single faceplate footprint, consolidating voice, data, video, and power into one clean termination point rather than stacking multiple single-port outlets across a wall surface.
• FT-4 Flame Rating: Meets FT-4 standards, meaning the material self-extinguishes and won't propagate flame — a code compliance requirement in many commercial construction projects and a specification your AHJ will check during rough-in inspection.
• Ortronics TracJack and Series II Compatibility: Designed as a direct mechanical fit for Ortronics TracJack and Series II modules, so you're not shimming, cutting, or adapting — the modules seat and snap as intended, keeping installation time and rework risk to a minimum.
• Communication and Power Wiring Support: The interior cavity accommodates both communication wiring and power wiring runs, which matters in multi-function outlet locations common in conference rooms, classrooms, and security equipment closets.
• PSB3 Device Box Compatible: When paired with the PSB3 device box, the assembly accommodates wireless devices, extending its utility beyond hardwired connectivity to wireless access point mounting scenarios.
• White Finish: The white color integrates cleanly with standard commercial wall plate finishes and drop-ceiling environments, reducing the need for aftermarket painting or custom cover matching in new construction or renovation installs.
• Compact Footprint — 3-1/4" x 3" x 3-1/4": The controlled depth of 3-1/4" fits within standard wall cavity clearances, preventing box conflicts with insulation, blocking, or adjacent rough-in hardware in typical stud-wall construction.

Integration & Compatibility

The PBB4TJWH is purpose-built for Middle Atlantic and Ortronics structured cabling systems. It accepts Ortronics TracJack modules and Series II modules directly — these are the connectivity inserts for Cat5e/Cat6 data jacks, coax, fiber, HDMI, and keystone-style power outlets common in commercial AV and network infrastructure deployments. When specifying this bezel box as part of a larger structured cabling installation, confirm your TracJack module variant (TracJack vs. Series II) against the modules being populated — both families are supported in a single PBB4TJWH, but mixing families in one box is intentional by design, not an afterthought. For wireless integration at the same outlet location, the PSB3 device box pairs with this bezel to support wireless device mounting without a separate enclosure. This makes the PBB4TJWH compatible with mixed wired-and-wireless termination points in AV infrastructure and security headend closets. Pair with a compatible patch panel solution upstream for a fully organized horizontal cabling run.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What modules are compatible with the PBB4TJWH?

A: The PBB4TJWH is designed to accept Ortronics TracJack and Series II modules. Both module families are supported within the same bezel box.

Q: Can the PBB4TJWH accommodate power wiring as well as data?

A: Yes. The bezel box is designed to accommodate both communication wiring and power wiring, making it suitable for multi-function outlet locations.

Q: Does the PBB4TJWH meet any flame or safety ratings?

A: Yes. The PBB4TJWH meets the FT-4 flame rating standard, which requires the material to be self-extinguishing and non-flame-propagating — a common code compliance requirement in commercial construction.

Q: What are the exact dimensions of the PBB4TJWH?

A: The PBB4TJWH measures 3-1/4" in length, 3" in width, and 3-1/4" in height.

Q: Can the PBB4TJWH support wireless device installations?

A: When paired with the PSB3 device box, the PBB4TJWH assembly can accommodate wireless devices at the same outlet location.

Q: Is the PBB4TJWH metallic or non-metallic?

A: Non-metallic. The housing is plastic construction, which avoids EMI interference concerns near sensitive communication lines.

Marty Allison

The PBB4TJWH comes up regularly on commercial AV and security infrastructure projects where integrators need a compliant, clean termination point for TracJack module deployments. The FT-4 flame rating is the detail I always flag first — in occupied commercial buildings, your AHJ will verify this on inspection, and a non-rated enclosure will generate a correction notice that stalls final walk-through.

Technical Highlights:

• FT-4 Flame Rating: Self-extinguishing material that won't propagate flame along the cabling run — satisfies the fire code requirement that shows up in commercial tenant improvement permits and new construction ITPs.
• Four-Module Capacity (3-1/4" x 3" x 3-1/4"): Four ports in a footprint under 3-1/4" deep means you can consolidate Cat6, coax, fiber, and power keystone inserts in one outlet location without a double-gang box or a custom cut in finished drywall.
• Non-Metallic Construction: Eliminates the ground-loop and EMI coupling risks that come with metallic bezels when low-voltage data and audio lines share an outlet — common in conference rooms and security head-end closets where signal integrity matters.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm your TracJack module variant before specifying quantity — the PBB4TJWH supports both TracJack and Series II in the same box, but if your project spec calls for a specific module generation across all outlets, verify the insert fits the slot before the rough-in order ships.
• The PSB3 device box pairing for wireless support requires a separate accessory order — the PBB4TJWH ships as the bezel only and does not include a device box or any TracJack modules in the box.

This bezel box is the right specification for conference room AV buildouts and security equipment rooms in commercial tenant improvement projects where code compliance, module compatibility, and a clean finished appearance are all non-negotiable at closeout.
