Installing a Wall/H-Frame Mount Kit
A sturdy, plumb wall or H-frame can provide an effective mounting structure for elevating the cabinet above the ground,
particularly in areas subject to severe surface conditions such as flooding, mud, or heavy snow. Wall/H-frame mounting also
allows cabinets to be installed in locations where the required terrestrial right-of-way may be unavailable.
Use the Clearfield wall-mount kit to provide the mounting fixture. The wall/H-Frame mount kit consists of mounting brack
-
ets that attach directly to a wall or H-frame and a conduit feedthru assembly which provides exact entry locations for cable
conduits.
You can install the mounting kit onto an existing wall, or you can construct an H-frame at the installation site to support the
cabinet. Installing the wall/H-frame mount kit requires trenching cable conduit to the site and installing the mounting kit on
the wall or H-frame.
