HotPort Series 6000 Mesh Nodes
Mounting the Node
Your HotPort node is shipping with its backing plate attached. If it
has been removed for any reason, re-attach it now. Note that the
holes in the node are pre-tapped for the supplied metric screws; do
not use other screws.
Next, slide the node assembly onto the bracket, so that the four tabs
on the node assembly engage the straps on the bracket, as shown
in Figure 20.

Then tighten the four captive screws on the node assembly. This
locks the node onto the bracket. Don’t leave these screws loose; if
you do, it’s easy to knock the node off the bracket.

You’re now ready to make all the necessary cable connections to
your HotPort node.
