Cabinet Wall Mount Kit Installation
If the cabinet is to be wall mounted, a wooden backboard
MUST
be installed when the location
has masonry or plasterboard walls. This backboard is recommended for all Wall Mount
installations. A ½-inch plywood material is sufficient for most installations. The backboard should
be mounted at a convenient height, about one (1) meter above the floor, and be bolted to wall-
studs in a number of places to distribute the weight of the system.
Space should be available on the backboard for separate Telephone and LAN wiring distribution
frames (MDF) and for optional equipment such as music sources, etc.
The optional Cabinet Wall Mount kit mounts to the wall then the cabinet is attached to the Wall
Mount kit. The Wall Mount kit permits the cabinet to swing on hinges for access to the back
plane telephony cabling. The hinges may be placed on either side of the cabinet prior to
installation. Select the hinged side so as to obtain maximum clearance and lighting. Also, to
keep the cabinet from swinging open, a latch is provided. Follow the steps below and Figure
4.3.1.3-1 for installation.
