Mounting Avaya Vantage on a wall plate

Last Updated : Jun 08, 2020 |

About this task

You can wall mount Avaya Vantage™ using two screws or a telephone wall plate. This procedure describes how to mount Avaya Vantage™ on a pre-installed standard dual-stud telephone wall plate.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have the following items:

  • A rubber wedge included with the device in the box.

  • A short Ethernet cable, between 4 to 12 inches long, with short RJ45 connectors.

  • A standard dual-stud telephone wall plate that is installed on the wall.

Procedure

  1. Attach the rubber wedge to the back of the Avaya Vantage™ device towards the base.

    The rubber wedge has a self-adhesive area that you can attach to the surface of the device. It stabilizes the wall-mounted device to prevent movement when you touch or tap the screen.

  2. Plug the Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the rear panel of the device.
  3. Pass the Ethernet cable through the middle gap of the stand and connect the other end to the wall jack.

    If you use a short cable as suggested, you can fold the extra length of the cable in the space between the stand and the unit.

  4. Optional If you are using an external power supply or an RJ9 headset, connect the power adapter cord or the headset to the device.

    These ports are on the rear panel of the device, which are not accessible when the device is wall mounted. Therefore, carry out this step before you mount the device.

  5. Close the device stand to make it rest on the rubber wedge.
  6. Align the slots on the device stand with the wall plate studs and slide the device down until it attaches securely to the wall plate.
