How to mount your Ring Base
Station on a wall (optional)
You can mount your Base Station on a wall using
two wall anchors, two screws, and the mounting
slots located on the unit. The Base Station can be
horizontally mounted.
Before you begin
Before you begin, choose an appropriate
mounting place. The wall can be made of
cement, wood, or drywall. The mounting location
should be free of obstructions on all sides, and
the cables should be able to easily reach the Base
Station without strain. Leave sufficient clearance
between the bottom of the Base Station and
any flooring or shelving underneath to allow
access to cabling. In addition, leave enough
slack in all cables so that the Base Station can be
removed for any required maintenance without
disconnecting the cables. Also, you will need the
following items:
• Two wall anchors for #8 x 1-inch screws
• Two #8 x 1-inch pan head screws
• Drill with a 3/16-in. wood or masonry bit, as
appropriate for the wall composition
• A copy of the wall-mounting illustrations
shown in figure 2 (at right).
• Mount the Base Station as shown in figure 1
