Instructions for Wall Mounting the NetVanta 1534/1544
Step
Action
1
Attach the mounting brackets (P/N 1200884G1) to the chassis using the provided screws (see
Figure 13 on page 34
).
2
Decide on a location for the NetVanta. NetVanta 1534/1544 units are mounted with the front
panel facing down (see
Figure 13 on page 34
). Keep in mind that the unit needs to be mounted
at or above eye level so that the LEDs are viewable.
3
Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick)
to a wall stud using #6 to #10 (2.5-inch or greater in length) wood screws.
Important! Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not provide
sufficient long-term stability.
4
Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two #6 to #10 wood screws (1 inch or
greater in length) through the unit’s brackets and into the mounted board (see
Figure 13 on
page 34
).
5
Proceed to the steps given in
Supplying Power to the Unit on page 36
.
