5) Install the System Into the Mounting Surface

1.

Install the unit into the cutout in the mounting surface.

Make sure that all cables from the backside terminations pass through 

the cutout.

For terminations for which the far end of the cable is not accessible 

(either because the cable has been run under carpet, in a conduit or 
structure, or is otherwise fixed), the cable must be placed through the 
cutout in the table prior to installation, as indicated in FIG. 5. 

2.

Open the door and rotate the four mounting screws located inside and 
at each end of the HPX base assembly in order to rotate the retaining 
tabs out under the mounting surface.

Note: Make sure that the retaining tabs are down and folded out of the 
way prior to installing the unit in the mounting surface.

3.

Continue to tighten the mounting screws until the mounting tabs 
contact the backside of the mounting surface to retain the HPX 
Assembly (FIG. 6).  

Note: For surfaces less than ¾" (19mm) thick, use the supplied plastic 
spacers by fixing them to each end of the cutout using the supplied double 
sided tape (FIG. 7). 

6) Install the System Into the Mounting Surface

1.

Terminate the backside connections as required for each cable exiting 
the HPX system. 

2.

Secure these cables and the power cable to either of the end caps 
using the supplied wire ties (FIG. 8). 

3.

Secure the cables in at least one additional location after they have 
been secured to the system so as to prevent undue stress on the 
system if the cables are inadvertently kicked, snagged or pulled.

Note: The socket-outlet (Connection to Mains Power branch circuit) shall 
be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
