6 Installing and using the Expedience OSU
Attach the mounting bracket to the outside of the building
1 Where possible, install the OSU on the side of the building that has the greatest exposure
to the communications tower of the service provider.
The service provider can provide information about tower locations that can provide the
OSU with greatest signal exposure.
2 Install the mounting bracket to the building. The bracket (like the OSU) must be installed
vertically.
• Drill the two top holes 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) apart. Drill the bottom holes 7 inches (18
cm) below the top holes. Figure 5 provides a template for drilling the holes.
• If possible, drill one upper hole and its corresponding lower hole into a stud. Do not
allow the OSU to be supported by the building’s siding only.
• If installing the OSU on a brick or masonry surface, use lead screw anchors.
• After the holes are drilled into the building, drive the screws (illustrated in Figure 4)
through the holes on the mounting bracket and into the building.
Figure 4 illustrates the screws to use to attach the mounting bracket to the building.
