Instructions for Wall Mounting
Step Action
1 Decide on a location for the NetVanta 300 Series unit. Keep in mind that the unit needs to be
mounted at or below eye-level so that the LEDs are viewable.
2 Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/ 4-inch to 1-inch thick)
to a wall stud.
Important! Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not
provide sufficient long-term stability.
3 Install two #8 PAN headscrews (1 1/ 2-inch or greater in length) wood screws into the mounted
board, following these guidelines and referring to Figure 5:
• Screws should be spaced horizontally, approximately 5 inches apart. Find exact positioning
by using the location of the two keyed insets on the bottom of the NetVanta 300 Series unit
as a guide.
• Screws should be horizontally level with each other.
• Leave approximately 1/4 inch of the screws protruding from the board to allow the heads of
the screws to slide into place in the unit’s keyed insets.
4 Slide the keyed insets on the bottom of the unit’s chassis securely onto the screws.
5 Proceed to the steps given in Getting Started on page 26.
