The templates are not shown at full size. Pay attention to
the measurements shown on the templates.

• If the Extender will be installed in a wall box, place the
box against the installation surface and draw a line on
it around the outside of the box.
• If the Extender will be installed without a wall box
(using mud rings or fastening it directly to the wall or
furniture), measure and mark the surface for the cutout
area indicated in the template.
3. Cut out the material from the marked area.
4. Check the opening size by inserting the wall box (if used)
or the Extender (if no box is used) into the opening. The
box and line driver should t easily into the opening.
Enlarge or smooth the edges of the opening if needed.
5. Feed cables through the wall box punch-out holes, and
secure them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.
6. Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources
of short circuits. Trim back and/or insulate shields with
heat shrink.
