Installation and Operation
2-2
The DAV/DAS101CM modules can be attached to a CPM
mini architectural adapter plate (MAAP) mounting frame and
mounted in a wall or furniture using either a one-gang wall
box or a wall bracket. Alternatively they can be mounted in
the chassis of a device (such as a CIA Series interface) that
accommodates connector modules, or attached to a CPM Series
rack-mountable frame for mounting in a standard equipment rack.
Installing a Wall Box or Wall Bracket
For wall and furniture mounting installations, the installation
site must be deep enough for both the wall box (or the DAV/
DAS, if using a wall bracket) and the cables. The box should be
at least 2.5" (6.4 cm) deep. Install cables into the wall, furniture,
or conduits before installing a wall box or bracket.
1
. Place the wall box or mounting bracket against the
installation surface; mark the guidelines for the opening on
the wall or furniture.
2 . Cut out the material from the marked area.
3 . Insert the wall box/bracket to check the opening’s size and
fit. Enlarge or smooth the edges of the opening if needed.
4 . Feed cables through the wall box’s punch-out holes,
ground shields, and
secure cables with
cable clamps to
provide strain relief.
Grounding shields
}
W To prevent
short circuits, the
outer foil shield can be cut
back to the point where the cable exits the cable clamp.
Connect both braided and foil shields to an equipment
ground at the other end of the cable. Insulate any
exposed shields with heat shrink
5 . Insert the wall box or wall bracket into the opening, and
attach it to the wall, stud, or furniture, leaving the front
edge flush with the outer wall or furniture surface.
To attach a wall box to wood, use four #8 or #10 screws or
10-penny nails. A minimum of 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) of screw
threads must penetrate the wood.
To attach a wall box to metal, use four #8 or #10 self-tapping
sheet metal screws or machine bolts with matching nuts.
