Abstract

A raised access floor service box can have a plurality of entry points that are segregated from one another. Each of the plurality of entry points can be associated with a corresponding plurality of segregated chambers. At least one of the segregated chambers can be configured to be a secure chamber, which further can include a door to the chamber. The door to the secure chamber can include a lock that secures and prevents the door from opening when the lock is in a locked position, thus securing the cables and cable connections within the security chamber. In addition, the raised access floor service box can have connector ports that are only accessible within the security chamber. The raised access floor service box thus allows for various types of cables, with various levels of security, to be associated with a single raised access floor service box.
