NOTE: Consider making the actual cutout opening slightly smaller than the provided dimensions. This provides a margin of error
if the opening needs to be expanded. Too little wall material removed is always better than too much.
2. Thread the incoming cables (Ethernet and Micro-USB) from their terminal locations through the surface opening, leaving
enough slack in the wiring to accommodate any re-positioning of the panel.
3. Remove the Backbox knockouts and thread incoming cables through the knockout holes.
4. Gently push the Backbox into the mounting surface.
This Backbox uses two Locking Tabs to secure the Backbox to the wall. For typical mounting surfaces, such as drywall, the
locking tabs are the primary method for securing the Backbox to the wall.
To ensure a stable installation, the thickness of the wall material must be a minimum of .50 inches (1.27cm) and a
maximum of .875 inches (2.22cm). The mounting surface should also be smooth and flat. For thin walls or solid surfaces,
use mounting screws (not included) - see FIG. 8.
5. Extend the Locking Tabs by tightening the Locking Tab screws until snug.
FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 show the Locking Tabs on the RMBK-1001 and RMBK-701 Backboxes:
CAUTION: The maximum recommended torque to screw in the locking tabs on the plastic Backbox is 5 IN-LB [56 N-CM].
Excessive torque on the tab screws can strip out the locking tabs or damage the Backbox.
Extend the Locking Tabs only AFTER the Backbox is inserted into the wall.
When installing the Backbox, make sure that it is positioned correctly.
The Backbox is clear to allow visual confirmation that the tabs have been extended and are gripping the wall, as well as in
assisting with removal if necessary.
