Unit Installation NetVanta 6240 Series Hardware Installation Guide

Wall Mounting the NetVanta

By following these instructions exactly, the NetVanta can be safely mounted on the wall.

• To avoid damaging the unit, use only the screws included in the shipment when

attaching mounting ears to the chassis.

• When wall mounting the NetVanta, care must be taken not to damage the power cord.

Do not attach the power cord to the building surface or run it through walls, ceilings.

floors, or openings in the building structure.

• The socket-outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

Instructions for Wall Mounting the NetVanta

Step Action

1 Remove the mounting brackets. Rotate them 90 degrees so that the portion of the bracket with

the mounting holes is flush with the bottom of the chassis. Reattach the mounting bracket to the

chassis (see Figure 3 on page 21).

2 Decide on a location for the NetVanta, keeping in mind that the unit needs to be mounted at or

below eye-level so that the LEDs are viewable. The NetVanta 6240 can only be wall mounted

with the front panel facing to the right or left (see the example in Figure 3 on page 21).

3 Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/4-inch to 1-inch thick)

to a wall stud using #6 to #10 (2.5-inch or greater in length) wood screws.

Important! Mounting to a stud ensures stability. Using sheetrock anchors may not provide

sufficient long-term stability.

4 Have an assistant hold the unit in position as you install two #6 to #10 (1-inch or greater in

length) wood screws through the unit’s brackets and into the mounted board (see Figure 3 on

page 21).

5 Proceed to the steps given in Supplying Power to the Unit on page 22.
