The white cable connects the LAN to the four personal area network (PAN) ports located on the bottom of the IntelliJack.

The black cable connects the LAN to the single pass- through port located on the front of the IntelliJack.

3Choose one pair of the provided screws that best fits your outlet box.

4Tighten the screws while holding the IntelliJack in place.

NOTE: The IntelliJack is designed to be mounted using the provided mounting plate or many after- market faceplates. However, some after-market faceplates stand out from the wall and do not provide a secure mounting surface for the IntelliJack. In such cases it is recommended to place the 3Com spacer between the IntelliJack and the after-market face plate. For more information on the different mounting plates and spacers, see Appendix B.
