Wall mounting instructions
Note: When mounting the Telephony Modem on drywall, try to position the
Telephony Modem so at least one of the screws is fastened to a stud. This may
prevent the Telephony Modem from pulling out of the wall in the future. To prevent
overheating of the Telephony Modem, do not block the ventilation holes on the sides
of the unit.
1. Position the mounting template on the surface where you intend to mount the
Telephony Modem and secure in place with transparent tape.
2. Drill holes through the template in the specified locations for the mounting screws. After
drilling holes, remove the template from the surface.
