Note: When mounting the Telephony Gateway on drywall, try to position the
Telephony Gateway so at least one of the screws is fastened to a stud.
This may prevent the Telephony Gateway from pulling out of the wall in
the future. To prevent overheating of the Telephony Gateway, do not
block the ventilation holes on the sides of the unit.
