CHAPTER 4 Mounting the Device
Mediant 500 Gateway & E-SBC | Hardware Installation Manual
Wall Mounting
You can mount the device on a wall, using a special wall-mounting bracket. The bracket enables
you to hang the device in a horizontal (rear panel facing up) or vertical (rear panel facing right)
position. The bracket is a customer-ordered item and is shipped in a kit of five wall-mounting
brackets. The areas of the wall-mounting bracket are shown below:
Figure 4-2:
Wall-Mounting Bracket Parts
●
1 - Spacers to separate the device from the bracket.
●
2 - Keyholes for hanging the bracket on the wall.
●
3 - Screw-holes for attaching the bracket to the device's side panels
●
4 - Ground-screw hole for attaching the bracket to the device's grounding hole.
When choosing the area on the wall to mount the device, make sure that sufficient space is
available for attaching the cables on the front and rear panels.
➢
To mount the device on a wall:
1.
Mark the drilling locations of the four mounting holes on the wall. You can use the wall-
mounting bracket as a template. Place the bracket flat against the wall in the desired hanging
orientation - horizontal or vertical (see the following figures). Make sure that the bracket is
horizontal with the floor (you can use a level). With a pencil, stencil the keyholes on the wall.
The distances between the keyholes depend on the orientation in which you want to hang the
device:
●
Horizontal position: The horizontal distance between the keyholes is 200 mm (7.87 in.) and
the vertical distance is 135 mm (5.31 in.):
