Procedure
Step 1
Hold the Back Plate flush against the wall or pillar, and then mark through its bores where you will drive
holes into the wall.
Step 2
Use a drill or an awl to drive wall bores that are 0.8125 in. (20.6375 mm) deep and 0.2344 in.
(5.9531 mm) in diameter.
Step 3
Seat the No. 5 anchors inside the wall bores.
Step 4
Align the bores in the Back Plate with the seated anchors. Threaded studs on the Back Plate should point
at you.
Step 5
Do the following for each bore in the Back Plate:
a.
Carefully position a flat washer (No. 8) over the bore.
b.
Thread a No. 4 screw through the flat washer and down into the corresponding bore.
c.
Tighten the screw inside the seated anchor.
Step 6
Place the Front Cover on a flat surface, such as a table or workbench. Its side supports should point
at you.
Step 7
Flip your DMP upside-down and place it inside the Front Cover. The Cisco logo on the DMP chassis
should touch the center cross on the Front Cover.
Step 8
Snap the Front Cover onto the Back Plate so that they contain the DMP between them.
Step 9
Thread a No. 1 screw through each side support bore in the Front Cover, until the screw head forms a
level plane with the side support.
Step 10
Insert the Locking Plate through the bearing slot in either side of the Front Cover, and then push it
through the bearing slot in the opposite side.
Step 11
Use the mouth of the Locking Plate to secure the case. This prevents its theft and the theft of your DMP.

Mounting to a Flat-Panel Display
You can use your mounting kit to mount a DMP to almost any VESA-compliant flat-panel display that
is attached to a third-party VESA bracket. You can mount your DMP above or below the flat-panel
display, whether the display is oriented in landscape mode (horizontal) or portrait mode (vertical).
Note
See the manufacturer documentation for your display to learn if its casing is VESA-compliant and, if so,
where you can obtain a compatible VESA bracket for it. Cisco does not sell VESA brackets or kits.
The LCD-mount Plates for this product might not be long enough to mount your mounting kit to an
extremely large flat-panel display, even if that display is VESA-compliant.
