Abstract: A pedestal supply unit for use with furniture, includes a vertically extendable pedestal support, an upper housing carried by the pedestal support and including supply outlets, an encircling shield round the supply outlets and a cover above the shield and so located as to define an opening between the shield and the cover to enable cabling to pass from the unit to adjacent equipment. The cover may be a top which matches the work tops of associated furniture units, and a flexible cable carrier with ball end connectors may be used for transferring cabling between units.
