Instructions for Wallmounting NetVanta 2050, NetVanta 2054, or NetVanta 2100

Step Action

1 Decide on a location for the NetVanta. Mount the unit at or below eye-level so that the LEDs are

viewable.

2 Prepare the mounting surface by attaching a board (typically plywood, 3/ 4" to 1" thick) to a wall

stud.

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

sufficient long-term stability.

3 Install two #8 (1 1/ 2" or greater in length) wood screws into the mounted board following these

guidelines and referring to Figure 9:

• Screws should be spaced horizontally, approximately 5” apart. Find exact positioning by

using the location of the two eyed insets on the bottom of the NetVanta as a guide. You can

also use the Mounting Template located on your ADTRAN OS Documentation CD.

• Screws should be horizontally level with each other.

• Leave approximately 1/4” of the screws protruding from the board to allow the heads of the

screws to slide into place in the unit’s keyed insets.

4 Slide the keyed insets on the bottom of the NetVanta chassis securely onto the screws.

5 Proceed to the steps given in Supplying Power to the Unit on page 29.
