With PoE, the power is supplied directly through the Ethernet port through the PS- POE-AF PoE Injector, available from AMX.

  • Page 17: Installation

    The NXD-430 is contained within a clear outer housing known as the back box (FIG. 4). This back box is removed when installing the device into a wall or into a Rough-In Box. Because of the backbox, the device may be installed into either a pre-wall surface using a CB-TP5i Rough-In/wallbox, or into a solid surface using the included locking tabs or either solid surface or drywall screws.

    Installing the NXD-430 and NXD-435 into Drywall The NXD-430 and NXD-435 come with a clear plastic backbox (FIG. 8) designed to attach the panel to standard drywall. This backbox has a locking tab on three of the four faces (missing only on the face containing the space for the connections) to help lock the backbox to the wall.
  • Page 22 The back box is clear to allow visual confirmation that the tabs have been extended and are gripping the wall. This also allows visual confirmation that the tabs have been retracted away from the wall if the entire assembly has to be removed from the wall for any reason.
