Mounting the SWE
NOTE: Structured Wiring Enclosures are available in
many sizes. For purposes of this installation
guide, a 30” SWE is used in order to accom-
modate a full featured application.
1.
Determine the location of the enclosure inside the
subscribers home. Normally, the FiberPoint MEM will
be housed inside the SWE as shown below.
2.
Using the Enclosure and a level, mark the four mount-
ing hole locations. See ‘Figure 3-1: Structured Wiring
Enclosure Access Points’.
3.
Using the correct drill bit for the screws required, pre-
drill the marked locations.
4.
Using appropriate fasteners, mount the SWE to the
side of the subscribers home.
NOTE: The SWE can be flush mounted or recessed to
an interior wall provided proper airflow exists
behind the cover and that temperatures do not
exceed recommended levels (See Reference
Section in the back of this manual).
