CHAPTER 4 - INSTALL HARDWARE
CHAPTER OVERVIEW
This chapter explains how to install a V-Station 4G or V-Flex 4G device, how to mount a
wall plate, how to attach a device to a wall plate, and how to make the required
electrical connections to the device.
4.1 INSTALL HARDWARE
4.1.1 WALL-MOUNTING SCHEMES
The V-Station 4G and V-Flex 4G devices are mounted, by use of a mounting plate,
either directly to a wall or to an electrical box recessed in the wall. The V-Station 4G
device can be flush mounted only. The V-Flex 4G device can be either flush or recess-
mounted on a wall.
The V-Station 4G Extreme devices are mounted, by use of a stainless steel mounting
plate, directly to a wall.
4.1.2 INSTALLING A MOUNTING PLATE
The procedure for mounting a wall plate directly to a wall is as follows:
Hold the mounting plate onto the wall in the desired location, trace the square hole that
will be cut out, and mark the mounting screw locations. Note that for the V-Flex 4G,
the large square hole is at the bottom and for the V-Station 4G the hole is to the
right.
Cut out the square hole with a jigsaw or drywall saw. If the V-Flex 4G device is to be
recess-mounted, cut out a hole in the drywall to accommodate the rear extension on
the device housing.
Drill holes for the nylon wall anchors and install them.
Fish wires through the wall to the square hole.
Align the hole in the wall plate with the hole in the wall.
Fasten the mounting plate to the nylon wall anchors in the wall with the provided
screws.
If the V-Flex 4G device is to be recess-mounted on an electrical box, a double gang box
is required to accept the rear extension of the housing.
If mounting the V-Station 4G device to an electrical box, attach the mounting plate to a
single
