Based on home vacuum motor attached to the lower shelf and activated with the router, the vacuum created in the cabinet draws most of the dust created on the top. Larger chips and finer dust are all kept inside the cabinet.

Tabletop lifts to allow router access and dust removal.

Front panel opens as well.

The filter prevents dust from returning to the workshop.
Rear view of the table reveals the vacuum motor on the bottom shelf.

The unique feature of my router table is its self contained dust collection system.
