Mounting the Electronics Enclosure
Detailed instructions for mounting the Electronics Enclosure are below. Before installing the
enclosure, review the following requirements and if necessary, consult the Site Survey results.
It is suggested if the location is difficult to access, wire the system before mounting, but keep the
power supply unplugged until finished wiring all peripherals and mounting the support brackets.
The electronics enclosure must be located no further than 12.2 linear-meters [40 linear-feet] from
the antenna(s) to allow for bends in the 15.2 cable meters run [50 cable feet]. The enclosure, which
weighs 5.17kg [11.4lbs], has keyhole slots at its edges to facilitate wall-mounting, but the
enclosure must have 2.5cm [1 in] clearance on all sides. Do not mount the electronics enclosure
beneath potential water sources (e.g. a sprinkler or pipe).
It is suggested to locate the enclosure directly above (or nearest to) the conduit’s endpoint, so the
length of exposed coax cable is minimal. Limiting exposed cable prevents RF interference, but do
not cut the coax cable (refer to the
“Placement”
section in Chapter 4: Wiring).
Using the included ENT Tubing (flexible conduit is supplied in the kit), route the cable from the
matching board to the arrival point near the electronics enclosure.
Installation procedures are listed for each type of material on which the enclosure can be installed:
•
Wood Surface
,
•
Drywall
, and
•
Concrete.
