the RU; At least 100 mm on the two sides of the RU;
10
At least 400 mm in front of the RU, and At least 20 mm at the rear of RU.
2.1.1 Wall Mount
Refer to the steps below to mount the RU to a wall. 1. Use a power tool to
drill four holes,then insert the wall anchors into the holes. 2. Apply the
four wall mounting screws into the wall anchors and fix the bracket.
3. At the bottom of the RU, place the four feet into the corresponding
positions on the bracket and push down to slide it into the bracket. 11
4. Slide down the RU so the stopper on the bracket can fix it. 12
5. Apply security screw and finish assembly.
2.1.2 Pole Mount (60 mm400 mm)

2.3 Powering on the RU
The RU can be powered via a PSE or a DC adaptor. If both are available, choose
the DC adaptor over the PSE. Please make sure your PSE device can support
802.3bt, as the RU’s full loading power consumption will exceed 802.3at
specifications.
The steps below describe ways of powering on the RU.
1. RU power source:
