Modular Operator Console

A modular operator console is the furniture and cable infrastructure for control rooms, command centers, security operations, traffic management and industrial process control. It supports monitors, keyboards, CPUs, communication equipment and operator comfort over long shifts.

The modular design allows straight rows, curved rows and custom shapes. Consoles can be joined end-to-end, and each position can be configured with different monitor arms, drawers and equipment shelves.

Typical work surface height is 720 mm to 750 mm, with a depth of 800 mm to 1,000 mm. A single operator position is usually 1,400 mm to 1,800 mm wide, enough for two to four monitors and a keyboard. Corner and curved modules keep the operator within reach of all screens.

Choose a curved layout for a small control room with a shared video wall, and a straight layout for a row of independent positions. Leave at least 1,200 mm behind the console for chair movement and service access.

The frame is welded steel with adjustable feet and removable panels. The work surface is high-pressure laminate (HPL) or melamine, with a matching edge band. HPL is more durable and scratch-resistant; melamine is a lower-cost option for light use.

Cable management includes vertical risers, horizontal trays, CPU holders, power strips and monitor arms. Cables should be routed inside the console and through the floor or wall, not across the work surface. Label power and data cables separately.

Options include monitor arms, CPU holders, keyboard drawers, equipment shelves, power outlets, USB charging, LED lighting and acoustic panels. Custom colors and logos can be applied to the front panels.

Consoles ship flat-packed or partially assembled in wooden crates. Typical lead time is 20 to 30 working days after drawing approval, with 1 set as the minimum order. Site assembly usually takes 1 to 3 days for a small control room.
