2. Mounting the Enclosure
● For new construction flush mounting, mount the enclosure on a stud using two (2) Metal Wood Screws.
● For old work flush mounting you may mount the enclosure to the front of the studs using two (2) Metal Wood Screws or break the tabs off and use
four (4) metal wood screws attaching the enclosure to the inside of the studs.
3. Cabling Rough-In and Mounting Brackets
Install appropriate cables from each location leaving enough overage on each end to allow easy installation and mark all cable ends with necessary
information. Each cable run should comply with all codes. Good wiring practices should be followed at all times.
Secure the Mounting Brackets to the back of the enclosure using the included six (6) bracket mounting screws. If access to the USB ports on the TV
power supply is needed, remove the large knock-out above or below mounting brackets.
4. Duplex Receptacle Knock-Out (sold separately)
● Remove receptacle knock-out in bottom of the panel.
● Install UL and/or ETL approved receptacle box.
● Run proper wires (according to code) to the receptacle box.
● Install UL and/or ETL approved receptacle rated 125 VAC.
● Install receptacle cover.
● Ensure that all work is done by a licensed electrical contractor.
5. Install Trim Ring
To complete the installation, when the TV will not be installed against the wall, place the trim ring onto the Connected Media Box aligning the grooves
on the sides with the slots on the box. Use the included four (4) screws to screw it into place. Use caution not to over tighten the screws, doing so may
cause deformation of the trim ring.
If the TV will be mounted directly against the wall, do not install the trim ring.
Installation Instructions:
1. Location Selection
The Connected Media Box will fill an entire stud bay horizontally. Make sure the box will fit either below the TV mount or to the side and still be able to
be covered by the TV. The outside dimensions of the trim ring are 17.50” W x 18” H.
Locate the panel in close proximity to a 110VAC for power requirements of amplifier or security panels. There is an outlet knockout in the bottom of the
panel for the installation of an UL and/or ETL approved
outlet or J-Box.
NOTE: Have a licensed electrician install the outlet to meet current code requirements.
NOTE: There is no fire rating on this panel, therefore, it should not be installed in fire rated walls.
