5.1.3 Cabinet Wall Mount Kit Installation
If the cabinet is to be wall mounted, a wooden backboard MUST be installed when the location
has masonry or plasterboard walls. This backboard is recommended for all Wall Mount
installations. A ½-inch plywood material is sufficient for most installations. The backboard should
be mounted at a convenient height, about one (1) meter above the floor, and be bolted to wall-
studs in a number of places to distribute the weight of the system.
Space should be available on the backboard for separate Telephone and LAN wiring distribution
frames (MDF) and for optional equipment such as music sources, etc.
The optional Cabinet Wall Mount kit mounts to the wall then the cabinet is attached to the Wall
Mount kit. The Wall Mount kit permits the cabinet to swing on hinges for access to the back plane
telephony cabling. The hinges may be placed on either side of the cabinet prior to installation.
Select the hinged side for maximum clearance and lighting. Also, to keep the cabinet from
swinging open, a latch is provided. Follow the steps below and Figure 5.1.3-1 for installation.
1. Disassemble the hinges by separating the hinge body and removing the hinge pin.
2. Mount the separated hinge bodies, two to the Wall Mount bracket and two to the cabinet
using the M6 x 8 mm machine screws; two (2) for each hinge body provided.
3. Use the Wall Mount kit to mark the location of four (4) mounting holes for the Wall Mount
kit as shown in Figure 5.1.3-1. Assure the Wall Mount holes are level and plum.
4. Drill four (4) 7 mm holes for the plastic wall anchors provided.
5. Fully Insert a wall anchor into the each of the four (4) holes, insert and tighten screws
leaving about 6 mm (¼-inch) exposed.
6. Place the Wall Mount kit on the four (4) screws and tighten the screws securely.
7. Insert the hinge pins and mount the cabinet to the Wall Mount kit by aligning the hinge
bodies with the hinge pins and lower into place.
8. Finally, mount the Cabinet Latch to the Wall Mount bracket and cabinet using the six M3
x 6 mm screws provided. The latch must be installed on the side opposite of the hinges.
