FUNCTIONALITY

Secretlab Magnus

SECRETLAB MAGNUS DESK - MONITOR ARMS 23 INCH DEPTH MAX

A traditional, fixed height desk. The flip-up Cable Management tray takes up approx 4 inches of worksurface depth, therefore monitor stands and monitor arms will be at 23" deep max from the front of the desk.  Additionally, some monitor arm brands may not fit with the depth and width of the cable tray space. Our dual monitor arm did not fit, our single monitor arm did fit, but just barely.
