Mounting on A Wall
The Altitude 300-2 can be mounted on a vertical surface using the universal mounting bracket. The
vertical position should be with the Ethernet cable and lock hasp pointing up. Select the location for the
unit and use the bracket as a template to mark the holes in the ceiling. For each of the four plastic
anchors supplied with the unit, drill 4.8 mm (3/16”} pilot holes, 24.5 mm (1”) deep. If wall anchors are
not being used, drill 3.2 mm (1/8”) holes, 1 inch (25.4 mm) deep. Install the bracket using the screws
from the kit. The Altitude 300-2 is designed to slip into the mounting slots on the bracket and slide
down (Figure 5). Secure the unit with a padlock or a cable tie. Follow standard procedures for
connecting the Ethernet cable, antenna shrouds for integrated antennas, and the plastic cover.
WARNING!
The Altitude 300-2 is not secured to the bracket unless a padlock is used. If a padlock is not used the
unit should be secured to the bracket by a cable tie through the lock hasp. Failure to secure the unit is
hazardous.
Mounting on A Table or Shelf
The Altitude 300-2 can be installed on a table or shelf using the stick-on feet supplied in the unit kit.
After the feet are applied, place the unit on the horizontal surface and attached the powered Ethernet
cable. If the unit is to be locked, use a standard computer cable and lock. The computer lock hole is
located at the rear of the Altitude 300-2 (Figure 1). Install and adjust the antennas for optimal
performance. Install the plastic cover and secure the antennas and Ethernet cable.
