Wall Mounting
If you mount the Communications Gateway on the wall, you must:
■ Locate the unit as specified by the local or national codes governing residential or
business cable TV and communications services.
■ Follow all local standards for installing a Network Interface Unit/Network Interface
Device (NIU/NID).
■ Mount the Communications Gateway with the battery terminals facing up or
sideways. To prevent possible leakage, do not mount the Communications Gateway
with the battery terminals facing down.
If possible, mount the Communications Gateway to concrete, masonry, a wooden stud,
or other very solid wall material. Use anchors if necessary; for example if you must
mount the unit on drywall.
To replace a CG4500E with a CG5500E, you can mount the new uni t on the existing
mounts. You may need to adjust the depth of the mounting screws so they protrude from
the wall as shown on page 52.
