Mounting Endpoint on a Wall or Vertical Surface
A floor joist along an outside basement wall is an ideal location for an endpoint . Mount the endpoint away from large, metal
objects, such as water heaters or furnaces that may block the signal .
For optimum performance outdoors, mount the endpoint as high as possible with minimal sur rounding obstructions and a
clear line-of-sight signal path to the gateway receiving antenna .
1 . Position the endpoint on the wall and mark the two mounting holes .
NOTE:
N
Be sure the endpoint is positioned so the cable exits at the bottom right . This ensures that the antenna is at
the top of the endpoint .
2 . Drill two mounting holes in the wall (if needed) .
3 . Place an anchor in each hole (if needed) .
4 . Position the endpoint over the holes and mount it with the appropriate size screws . Do not over tighten screws .
