I'm not sure what material is asbestos in this plugboard, probably the
laminates in the backer board.
Unless you saw or break up the material asbestos is not much danger.
Most applications where it is present in large quantities will try to
contain or seal the material in place rather than removing and disposing
of it.
If you ran over this thing with a truck, or took out the backer and ran
it thru a table or bandsaw you would have a problem. Leave it together
and you are probably safe.
I am worried about the siding on my house than something like this. All
asbestos, and about 1/2 installed by me when I was maybe 10 or 12 (1965
was an innocent time).
