Wall Mounting NetVanta 4300/4400 Series
By following these instructions exactly, the NetVanta can be safely mounted to the wall.
Remove the mounting ears from the NetVanta. Rotate them 90
o
so that the portion of the
bracket with the mounting holes is flush with the bottom of the chassis. Reattach them to the
chassis (see Figure 20 on page 46).
Decide on a location. All NetVanta 4000 Series units are mounted with the front panel facing
u
p. Keep in mind that the unit needs to be mounted at or below eye level so that the LEDs are
visible.
Important! M
ount the chassis with LEDs facing up (not facing sideways or down).
Important! Whe
n wall mounting the NetVanta 4430, do not remove the SFP slot covers unless
an SFP has been installed in the slot.
Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywo
od, 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick)
to a wall stud using #6 to #10 (2.5-inch or greater in length) wood screws.
Important!
Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not provide
sufficient long-term stability.
Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you
install two #6 to #10 wood screws through the
unit’s brackets and into the mounted board.
Proceed to the steps given in Supplying Power to the Unit on page 46.
