Mounting a Device Against a Wall

When no cabinet is available, you can mount the USG6510E, USG6510E-POE, USG6530E on a wall. The customer must have expansion screws for wall-mounting.

Precautions

Before unpacking the carton, ensure that the packing carton is intact and not damaged or soaked. Stop unpacking if the USG is rusted or soggy. Then, investigate causes and contact the supplier.

Tools and Accessories

  • Ruler
  • Marker
  • Hammer drill
  • Vacuum cleaner
  • Hammer
  • Phillips screwdriver
  • Mounting ears and matching screw (purchased separately, BOM numbers: 21240477)

Procedure

  1. Fix mounting ears to both sides of the panel with ports using M4 screws.

  2. Determine the locations of four mounting holes on the wall using a ruler and mark the mounting holes with a marker.

    • The wall must be a bearing wall. Otherwise, the wall is not suitable for wall-mounting.
    • Ensure that the height of mounting holes is proper so that the indicators are easy to view.

  3. Drill holes and install expansion bolts.

    Ensure that the expansion bolts are secure and reliable. Otherwise, the tension after cables are connected may cause the USG6510E, USG6510E-POE, USG6530E to fall.

    1. Use a φ8 drill bit to drill holes in the marked positions.
    2. Insert expansion bolts into the holes and screw the nuts to fasten the expansion bolts.
    3. Remove the nut, flat washer, and spring washer.

  4. Secure the USG on the wall and fasten the flat washers, spring washers, and nuts in order.

    The USG supports upward mounting and downward mounting. To prevent water from entering into ports and causing device damage, you are advised to mount the USG with ports facing downward.

Follow-up Procedure

After wall-mounting is complete, verify that:
  • The USG is securely fixed on the wall.
  • A clearance of 10 cm is maintained around the USG and the air flow is not blocked.
