*This bracket can be used for both wooden and concrete poles. It provides additional flexibity
and, because utility companies often charge to drill holes in local utility poles, you can save
costs by using both bolts and straps to attach the enclosure. Follow the directions for wooden
and concrete pole installation to install these brackets

There must be no more than two feet separating the stand-alone generic enclosure from the existing
enclosure. The recommended optimal distance between enclosures is between 6 and 24 inches.
