6. Wall Mounting the Enclosure
1. Mount the enclosure to wall studs
Do not attempt to mount the enclosure to the wall with equipment in the enclosure.
The supporting surface must be able to safely support the combined load of the equipment and
all attached hardware and components. For the actual weight, size and load capacity of the
enclosure, view the product specifications and other support resources at tripplite.com/support.
• Installers are responsible for providing wall-mounting hardware. Use a minimum of four screws (not included, sizes will
vary by model) to secure the enclosure in place. Make sure to use the included fender washers with the mounting screws
inside and outside the cabinet's mounting holes, with the foam side of washer against cabinet.
• Make sure mounting screws are anchored into the center of the studs. Use of a stud finder is highly recommended.
• If there is no stud at the mounting location, it is recommended you install studs at the desired location to secure the
enclosure in place. DO NOT use plastic expansion wall anchors, threaded drywall anchors, threaded drywall toggles,
sleeve-type hollow wall anchors (a.k.a. molly bolts) or toggle bolts, due to the weight of the enclosure.
• Use suitable mounting means when installing to cinder block, concrete, or wood studs. It is the installer's responsibility to
choose suitable mounting hardware (not supplied). Do NOT use plastic expansion wall anchors, threaded drywall anchors,
threaded drywall toggles, sleeve-type hollow wall anchors (a.k.a. molly bolts) or toggle bolts, due to the weight of the
enclosure.
• If placing the enclosure over a telecommunications receptacle, remove the wall plate, then fasten the enclosure to the
wall. Once secured, fasten the wall plate over the receptacle.
• If no telecommunications receptacle is available, a surface mount box (or biscuit jack) and equipment cord can be
mounted inside the unit.
• Use an adhesive-backed surface mount box.
