Wallplates• Quick Start Guide
CAUTION
Installation and service must be performed by authorized
personnel only. These units must be installed in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and with
local electrical codes.
These wallplates are passive devices and do not provide
buffering or other processing.
To install the Wallplates, follow these steps and see the appropriate
section of this manual for details:
Step 1
Select the site and run cables
through the wall or furniture where
the wallplate(s) will be installed.
Step 2
Prepare the site
: cut a hole (see page A-7 for a template), and install
an electrical box or mud ring/mounting bracket (see page 1-2).
Cable clamps should be used to hold the cables in place for strain
relief. Trim back and/or insulate exposed cable shields with heat
shrink to reduce the chance of short circuits.
Step 3
Attach connectors
to the input and output cables. See pages 1-4 to
1-7 for wiring diagrams.
Step 4
Connect the terminated output cables
to the Wallplate’s rear panel
connectors. See page 1-4 for details. An application example is
shown on the next page.
