The HRE-712 List 2 enclosure attaches to a laminated, stainless mounting base which attaches to a rack or flat
mounting surface. The right angle dressing of the HRE-712 List 2 stub precludes vertical mounting to a pole.
This section contains separate mounting instructions for each of these installations as follows:

If the cable stub connects to an underground cable, dress the cable down the wall to the splice case.
If the cable stub connects to an aerial cable, form a drip loop in the cable and dress it up the wall to the splice
case.
The domed enclosures and common mounting base are packaged separately and shipped in a
single carton.
While mounting the enclosure using any of these procedures, hold the enclosure securely to
prevent personal injury or damage to the enclosure.
Because of the size and weight of the enclosure, you may want to remove the dome before
beginning the mounting procedure. For more information, see
