Has anyone purchased or had a chance to lay their hands and eyes on the new Freud Router Fence? The Freud web site has no information on it regarding the fence. I’m wanting to find out what size the dust port is, what method of mounting it to a router table is needed, etc. If anyone could supply any information, I’d greatly appreciate it.

I had some printed material on it once upon a time, but have no idea where I put it. I remember something about the table attachments being a little specialised I think. If no one posts with personal experience, here's a link that should provide some hits with more info:

The SH-5 Router Table Fence has a 2-1/4" ID dust port. The fence includes mounting screws and requires 5/16" threaded inserts or T-nuts in the table. It was designed for use with the Freud BF3800 Insert Plate which is 9-1/4" wide so the mounting hole spacing is 10-1/16" OC. It can be used with larger insert plates by using the optional ALEPSH-5 adapter plate which increases the mounting hole spacing to 14".
