Fastening the Plywood Mounting Surface to a Wall

For an indoor installation, the AT-iMG646MOD series intelligent Multiservice Gateway must be mounted on
a plywood surface that complies with the following specifications:

ˆ

Recommended minimum size of 12 in. by 12 in. (31 cm by 31 cm)

ˆ

Recommended minimum thickness of 0.5 in. (1.2 cm)

ˆ

Rated for indoor use. Medium density fiberboard (MDF) is not recommended.

To fasten the plywood to the wall, perform the following procedure:

1. Select a reasonably flat wall location

2. Using a 3/16 in. (4.5 mm) wood or metal drill bit, drill a hole through each corner of the plywood (only),

approximately 1 in. (2.5 cm) from the edge.

3. Using the plywood as a template, mark the location for the holes on the wall.

4. Using a 3/16 in. (4.5 cm) of the appropriate type drill bit, drill the four holes in the wall at least 1in. (2.5

cm) deep.
