3. If your Ethernet cable feeds through the wall, then cut or
drill a circle approximately 25 mm in diameter, just below
the bottom center of the Mounting Bracket (as shown
above). Then feed the CAT5/6 cable through the hole.
4. Insert the M3x20 Screw Anchors into the 6 mm holes. Secure
the Mounting Bracket to the wall by inserting the M2.9x20
Screws into the anchors.
5. Connect the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port.
