Installation Preparations
OL-30 505 -01 13
Consider these recommendations:
Choose a location close to your computer if you will also use the residential
gateway for high-speed Internet service.
Choose a location that is near an existing RF coaxial connection to eliminate the
need for an additional RF coaxial outlet.
Choose a location that is relatively protected from accidental disturbance or
harm, such as a closet, basement, or other protected area.
Choose a location so that there is plenty of room to guide the cables away from
the residential gateway without straining or crimping them.
Choose a location that allows adequate ventilation around the residential
gateway.
Choose a location for the residential gateway that is adjacent to your telephone
equipment if you plan on connecting your phone directly to the residential
gateway.
Note: If you are using the residential gateway to provide service to several
telephones, a professional installer can connect the residential gateway to your
existing home telephone wiring.
How Do I Mount the Residential Gateway on a Wall? (Optional)
If you wish, you can mount the residential gateway to a wall. This section describes
how to mount the residential gateway to a wall, and includes a list of equipment you
will need along with suggestions for choosing an appropriate place to mount the
residential gateway.
Select an Appropriate Place to Mount the Residential Gateway
You may mount the residential gateway to a wall that is made of cement, wood, or
drywall. When choosing an appropriate mounting place, refer to the following
recommendations:
Ensure that the mounting location is free of obstructions on all sides, and the
cables should be able to easily reach the residential gateway without strain.
Leave sufficient clearance between the bottom of the residential gateway and any
flooring or shelving underneath to allow access to cabling.
Allow enough slack in all cables so that the residential gateway can be removed
for any required maintenance without disconnecting the cables.
Choose a location that allows adequate ventilation around the residential
gateway.
