Mounting the SonicWave 224w

NOTE: Complete installation and mounting instructions for this product are available in translation in the
Safety and Regulatory Reference Guide for this product. See
The SonicWave 224w comes with a mounting plate so it can be mounted on the wall. This section describes how
to attach the mounting plate to an indoor wall or junction box.
The mounting plate has four holes that are intended for use with mounting screws, two on each side. Use #6
(3.5mm) zinc plated pan head machine screws (sheet metal screws) of length 1.25 inches (31.75 mm). When
mounting on drywall, anchors should be used. Anchors must accommodate the screws and be rated to hold at
least 10 lbs (4.5 kg).
SonicWave 224w Mounting Plate
To attach the mounting plate to a wall:
1 Place the smooth side of the mounting plate against the wall with the Ethernet ports showing through
the center hole, and mark the locations for the screws. Use all four positions or select two holes that are
far enough apart to hold the access point securely to the wall.
2 Drill starter holes at the marked locations. For a wood wall, use a drill bit that fits the screws. For drywall,
use a drill bit that fits the anchors.
3 For drywall, screw in the anchors.
4 Place the mounting plate against the wall with the holes lined up on the marks or anchors.
5 Using the screws and a screwdriver, securely attach the mounting plate to the wall.
