Installing the CPE Under a Desk
Tip
We recommend that you attach the Ethernet, telephone, and power cables to the
CPE before mounting it under a desk because the connectors are hidden from view
after the CPE is installed. For more information, see the connection procedures
beginning on page 2-17.
Follow these steps to install the CPE under a desk:
Step 1
Position the desk so that it is at least 1/2 inch (12.7 millimeters) from the wall to
allow space for cabling between the wall and the desk. (See
Figure 2-3
,
Figure 2-4
, and
Figure 2-8
.)
Step 2
Locate the screw template. The template is used to align the mounting screw holes
and is also used as a guide to make sure the screws are installed under the desk
with proper clearance.
Step 3
Position the screw template underneath the desk so that the two side-by-side slots
face the front of the desk (See
Figure 2-3
.) This ensures that the cables will face
the rear of the desk after the CPE is installed.
Note
Do not attach the screw template to the desk yet.
Note
Allow a minimum of three inches (7.6 centimeters) between the rear of
the desk and the screw template so that there is enough room for the
cables to clear the wall. (See Figure 2-3.)
