4.
Determine mounting height and mark top hole locations.
Measure and mark the top mounting hole locations on the
wall, in a straight level line. This can be done by lifting and
leveling the cabinet then marking the mounting hole loca
tions, or without lifting and using the equipment as a
template. The horizontal distance between the holes in
the mounting flanges is shown in Figure 11. Two of the
holes are 16” apart on centers, to facilitate mounting on
standard walls with studs 16” apart on centers. The vertical
distance between the holes in the top and bottom mount
ing flanges is 25.2”. Westell recommends a minimum of 3
mounting bolts in each mounting flange. In addition to al
lowing for a comfortable installer working height (leave
about 30” under the cabinet), leave adequate space under
Boxer for cable access (or an optional battery box), as
stated in Paragraph 3.3, as well as in front of the mounting
to allow the door to open and at the sides in the event of
any multiple installations. With a marking utensil, mark
the top mounting holes to be drilled, in a level horizontal
line, at the desired wall height.
5.
Drill top mounting holes.
Drill appropriately‐sized pilot
holes, slightly smaller than the width and depth of the mount
ing bolts, screws or fasteners, at the marked locations.
Do not
drill the holes too large.
6.
Partially install bolts.
Partially install the bolts until only 1/2”
remains.
7.
Lift cabinet, and align mounting holes.
Lift the cabinet to
the protruding bolts, align the top mounting flange keyholes
with the bolts, then hang the cabinet from the bolts. If using
lift equipment, use two cables or straps of equal length, one
connected to each lift ear, for a balanced symmetrical lift.
The lift ears are provided at the top of the cabinet, one at
each side wall, and each lift ear has a 2” hole in it.
8.
Fully install the top mounting bolts.
Verify the cabinet is
level. Finish driving the top mounting bolts until they are
snug and the cabinet is flush and tight against the wall.
Manually test the bolt tightness to verify the bolts will sup
port the cabinet weight before the next step. Correct any
level or mounting bolt discrepancies.
9.
Mark and drill bottom mounting holes.
Mark the exact
locations for the bottom bracket's mounting bolts through
the predrilled slotted holes in the bottom mounting brack
et.
Drill appropriately‐sized pilot holes, slightly smaller
than the width and depth of the bolts, at the marked loca
tions.
Do not drill the holes too large.
10.
Install bottom mounting bolts.
Insert and drive all bottom
bolts completely in to their final seated position. Finish the
installation by verifying all bolts are firm and snug.
11.
Determine next step, or close up cabinet and clean the site.
Repeat Steps 6‐8 of Paragraph 3.6.1 to determine the next
step or finish the physical cabinet installation.
3.6.3
Mounting on a Pole or Post
Order the optional A90‐BXA‐PM02 pole mount kit (shown in
Figure 14 and listed in Table 4) for details and instructions on
pole‐mounting the Boxer cabinet. See Figure 15 for a brief
installation procedure. If mounting both the Boxer cabinet and
the Boxer battery box, use pole mount kit A90‐BXA‐PM03.
3.6.4
Mounting on a Concrete Pad
When mounted on an optional battery cabinet or skirt, the Boxer
cabinet can be mounted on a concrete pad. Order the optional
A90‐BXA19‐PT1 pad mount kit (listed in Table 4) for details on
pad‐mounting the Boxer cabinet.
‐ NOTE ‐
Always follow local safety precautions and standard operating
procedures for grounding the equipment when installing, up
grading, repairing or maintaining equipment. Any instructions or
information contained herein is subordinate to local codes, oper
ating procedures or practices.
3.7
Making Ground Connections
Eight sets of bond/ground posts, a ground lug, and an ESD jack
are provided on a ground plate on the interior floor of the cabi
net (see Figure 16). The posts are provided to bond both
network and customer equipment or communications cables.
An external earth ground rod or wire (#6 AWG) must enter the
cabinet and be connected to the ground lug located on the interi
or ground plate. Ground lug hardware should be tightened to 20
inch‐pounds.
Make all ground connections prior to any telecom
munications cable connections.
1.
Locate or establish an external earth ground.
Find or
create an external and appropriate earth ground, per com
pany practice and local codes.
2.
Remove a knock‐out for the earth ground wire.
Per
company practice, determine which cabinet knock‐out
hole location should be used for earth ground wire en
trance (a small forward knock‐out is recommended). If
not already removed, remove the selected knock‐out.
3.
Install a rubber grommet or liquid‐tight fitting.
Install
either conduit and an appropriate and liquid‐tight fitting
or a rubber grommet in the knock‐out hole.
