We have established partnerships in each region with select furniture manufacturers. Please refer to the links below for specific space types and product standards, guidelines, and recommendations.

Specifications

• Include post stop to restrict arm rotation and protect workstation panels from damage
• Fully coordinated with the workstation privacy panel (ie arm does not extend over the panel or hit the panel).
• The monitor arm should allow for the top line of the monitor to adjust between 41.8" - 52.8"AFF, to correspond with the seated eye height of most individuals.
• Intuitive adjustments (height, tilt, rotation)
• Clamp mount
• Integrated cable management
• Color: Silver, Gray or White
• VESA plates: 100mm x 100mm
• Warranty: 12-15+ years, 24/7 support ideal
  
  

Coordination notes

• For all locations (especially assigned workstations and private offices, where associates may have a non-standard monitor), the design partner is responsible for confirming weight against monitor arm specifications.
• For planning purposes, we've included a target ratio of monitor and monitor arm configurations for Flex workstations below. This can change site to site based on specific business needs and product availability. The design partner is responsible for confirming these details with Red Hat IT prior to ordering monitor arms.
  • 1/3 with a dual monitor setup
  • 1/3 with a single curved ultrawide monitor
  • 1/3 with a single monitor
     

Installation notes

• Monitor arms should not be over-tightened when installed, and a tool kit should be issued to the local FacOps team to adjust any arms that encounter this issue.
• Monitor arms should be mounted in a way that allows the monitor(s) to be centered horizontally on the work surface, with the monitor(s) placed roughly arms’ length from the individual.
• When 2 monitors and arms are used, monitor arms should be installed towards the left and right rear corners of the worksurface, to allow for ideal monitor placement
• Each individual monitor will have its own arm - no dual arms.
   

Office (Private or Team)-specific monitor arm installation details

• Monitor arms should be clamp-mounted to the far (long) edge of the workstation, approximately 17” (425mm) from the edge of the surface facing the wall to the centerline of the monitor arm base.
• In private and team offices, the monitor arms should be installed with the smart stop set for 360 degree rotation capability.

Specifications

• MB1 | Wall-mounted magnetic marker board with marker tray

• Strong preference for markerboards that require traditional magnets over those that require rare earth magnets.
   

Coordination notes

• Wall-mounted magnetic marker boards should be the default choice of product for all writable surfaces. Marker boards should not be located opposite a camera to reduce glare.

Key features

• Flush-mount box ordered and installed by the furniture vendor
• The edge of the flip-top box must have a clear space for cables to pass through to the table surface without being crushed
• Power outlets must have enough clearance to support a Mac charger
   

Example products

Details specific to the number and type of outlets needed can be found in each space type's information. It is the responsibility of our partners to validate that the product meets the power and data requirements outlined in each space type.

The images below are only examples of Red Hat's preferred features, exact product offering varies widely by table manufacturer and region. Examples shown here are not intended to be interpreted as product endorsements.

The following list is intended for a typical CapEx project delivery scope.  Confirm all items with the Workplace Delivery Program Manager at project kick-off.
