Mounting the Telephony Modem

You can either mount the Telephony Modem on a wall or place it on a desktop.

For wall-mount applications, you can mount the Telephony Modem with the indi-

cators facing upward (vertical) or to the side (horizontal).

Tools and Materials

For wall-mounted installations, make sure you have the following tools and mate-

rials before proceeding:

• for mounting on drywall: Two 1/4” (6mm) drywall anchors and a drill with

1/4” (6mm) bit (not included)

• for mounting on plywood or studs: two #6 x 1.5” (38.1 mm) self tapping

screws (included)

• screwdriver (flat-blade or Phillips, depending on what kind of screws you

use)

• wall-mount template (included)
• transparent tape (for temporarily securing the mounting template to the

wall)

Wall-mounting instructions

1 Position the mounting template on the surface where you intend to mount

the Telephony Modem and secure in place with transparent tape.

2 Drill holes through the template in the specified locations for the mounting

screws. After drilling holes, remove the template from the surface.

3 If using drywall anchors, set them into the wall. Then, drive the screws into

the wall leaving a gap of about 1/8” (3 mm) between the screw head and

the wall. If not using anchors, just drive the screws.

4 Orient the Telephony Modem with the indicator lights facing up or right, as

desired. Slip both mounting slots (in the back of the Telephony Modem) over

the screws, then slide the case down until the narrow end of the keyhole slot

contacts the screw shaft.
