I have had under the table saw dust collection for years using a Penn State DC-250 dust collector. Under the saw I used Rockler's Table Top Dust Hood, item number 26412, mounted under the saw in the cabinet. A 4" hose is connected at the back of the saw. See the first two pictures. The other picture show the above saw collection system which is found in a you tube video by Jim Jackson. I purchased the Rockler Universal Dust Collecting Port, item number 63508. I found that the amount of air moving at the dust collection hood was lacking. I stuck my hand up the hood and found that I have ample air movement, so my first solution was to add a this wall 4" plastic pipe in the center of the hood. It worked, but my visibility was reduced, so I thought that I would just eliminate the hood. You can see this in the pictures. It worked as I wanted and my visibility is better and a lot of the overhead sawdust is being collected.
