Installing on a Wall

To mount the device on a wall:

1Ensure that the mounting location meets the following requirements:

The surface of the wall must be capable of supporting the device.

Allow at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) space on the sides for proper ventilation and 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the back for power cable clearance.

The location must not be exposed to direct sunlight.

The location must be at least 2 feet (61 cm) away from any heating vents, and no area-heating vent should point towards the device.

The location must be ventilated to prevent heat buildup.

Do not locate the device near any data or electrical cabling.

The power cable must be able to reach an outlet.

2Place the supplied wall-mounting bracket on one side of the device, ensuring that the mounting holes on the device line up to the mounting holes on the rack-mounting bracket. The following figure illustrates where to mount the brackets.

4Repeat the process for the wall-mounting bracket on the other side of the device.
