damage. The wall structure should be capable of supporting
at least four times the weight of the mounted equipment.

professional to install the enclosure or to provide specic
mounting instructions for your wall structure.
The number of mounting holes on the rear door of the
enclosure will vary depending on the model of your enclosure.
Each mounting hole can accommodate an M8, M10, 5/16”, or
3/8”bolt.

1. Decide where in the enclosure you want to install the
equipment and insert the cage nuts in the mounting rails.
2. Line up the mounting holes on the equipment with the cage
nuts.
3. Insert the screws through the mounting holes on the
equipment and into the cage nuts.
