MATE3 Surface Mount Kit (FW-MB3-S)

This document contains instructions for installing the MATE3 on a bracket for wall or surface

mounting. The surface-mount bracket allows enough space behind the MATE3 that the CAT5

cable can be brought directly into the MATE3 without routing the cable through a wall. In

addition, the bracket can be attached to an existing mounting plate, such as the OutBack

FLEXPower ONE assembly. This is usually only done when a bracket is being replaced.

NOTE:

The cable can be routed into the back of the mounting bracket through an opening in

the wall or surface. This cabling method can be used if the cable must be concealed inside a

wall or brought from one room to another.

IMPORTANT: Hardware Required

Because this bracket is intended for mounting against many different types

of walls (wallboard, masonry, etc.), the attachment hardware is not

included. The user must provide screws, anchors, and anything else

appropriate for that particular mounting material. (Machine screws are

provided for attaching the bracket to a FLEXpower ONE assembly.)

If the cable will be routed through the wall into the back of the mounting

bracket, it may be necessary to cut or drill a hole in the appropriate

location. This step should be performed before mounting.

The CAT5 cable must be brought through the hole and made available to

plug into the MATE3 before performing this installation (see next page).

Instructions NOTE: If the cable is not being brought through a hole in the wall, steps 2 and 4 can be ignored. 1. Place the mounting bracket against the wall in the desired location. If an opening has been made in the wall for the CAT5 cable, align the hole in the bracket with the opening in the wall. 2. Insert the CAT5 cable through both holes. 3. Use appropriate mounting hardware to attach the bracket to the wall.
