About an Hoffman/NEMA Enclosure Installation
The recommended RS4000 installation is a wall mount, but if necessary the RS4000
can be housed inside a protective NEMA or Hoffman box that is manufactured with
external corner tabs for standard wall mounting, above or below a ceiling. When
installing in the Hoffman/NEMA box, the RS4000 attaches to an optional
Hoffman/NEMA box mounting plate, which replaces the standard wall mount bracket.
Meru leaves the placement and orientation of the Hoffman/NEMA enclosure to the
customer. It will be necessary to drill holes through the plastic NEMA enclosure with
a Meru-provided template to enable the antenna and Ethernet cabling to exit the
enclosure. Instructions for performing this task are provided in the section “Creating
