INSTALLATION - BACk BOx
Install back box
1.
Install the back box in the hole and secure using the included hardware. This
includes the two doglegs that are adjusted to snug the back box up against
the inside of the wall (Do not use a cordless drill; tighten by hand only). The
doglegs have a minimum clamping distance of 3/8" (9.5 mm) and a maximum
distance of 7/8" (22 mm). The large power pocket opening should be on the
bottom of the box. If using metal clad wire, the box will have to be installed
upside down to accommodate the bend radius of this type of wire (e.g., BX).

Pull/Connect the wire

2.
Pull the electrical feed from the light switch or electrical outlet through the
back box. Install the strain relief into the power pocket.
3.
Secure the electrical wire to the uninstalled power pocket by passing it
through the strain relief (for use with non-metallic cable such as Romex®). If
using metallic cable, you will need to provide the correct strain relief for this
cable. The knockout is for a standard 3/8" (9.5 mm) strain relief.
4.
Connect the electrical wire to the flying leads from the power supply and to
the flying ground lead on the power pocket. Do not remove the metal choke
from the flying leads of the power supply.

Power pocket assembly

5.
Once the electrical wire has been connected, slide the power supply into the
power pocket. Manipulate the wires into the wire management side of the
power pocket. Feed the power supply lead and the communication cable
through the holes on the trade separator plate. Fit the plate snugly in place
on top of the power supply and snap shut.
6.
The CAT-5 communication cable and the power supply lead should be visible
and unobstructed at the top of the power pocket. Slide the power pocket
through the back box opening and snug it into place.
7.
Line up the hole in the back box with the hole in the power pocket lip. Remove
the plastic pin from the expandable grommet and install the grommet in the
holes. Replace the pin in the grommet to secure the power pocket to the back
box.
