4.1 Tabletop or Shelf Placement
To install the Allworx 6x on a tabletop or shelf:
1. Remove the four rubber feet from the packaging.
2. Turn over the chassis and notice the triangle on each corner (2 large triangles in front, 2 smaller in back).
3. Remove the paper backing from each rubber foot and place one foot in each triangle.
4.2 Wall Mount
To mount the Allworx 6x on ½” drywall:
1. Verify that there is sufficient clearance around the server’s front and rear panels to allow power, network,
and telephony connections.
2. Use self-drilling drywall anchors rated for at least 20 lbs with screws that are either #6 or #8. Locate two
anchors that will support the upper end of the unit using the wall mount template included in Section 13.
Install the anchors per the anchor manufacturer’s recommendation. Install the mounting screws into the
anchors leaving approximately 1/8” between the bottom of the screw head and the wall.
3. Slide unit onto mounting screws. Adjust screw height if necessary to insure a snug fit against the wall.
Caution: The Allworx server must be securely mounted to the wall to avoid equipment damage or
personal injury.
Note: The unit must be mounted with the front facing forward, not up or down (see Figure 3).
