port, 12 port, 24 port, or 48 port configurations.  The 

OnTime Store

 offers a single port 

PoE injector for sale to support demonstration systems.  

Note that Midspan Power 

Injectors can also be configured for battery backup. 

The OnTime Clocks require connection to a PoE enabled LAN.  PoE power is usually 
injected into the LAN using either PoE enabled Ethernet switches or Mid Span power 
injectors.  Consult with your IT Group to make sure that the required PoE equipment is 
in place. 

4.4.  Surface Mounting the Analog Clock 

The following is a recommended procedure for surface mounting the analog clock: 

1.

 

Determine the clock mounting location. 

2.

 

Mark the Mounting Point location.   

Note that the Mounting Point is located 2½

” 

(6.35 cm) below the top of the clock rim. 

3.

 

Refer to Figure 2 to install the junction box for the data cable (if required) 
centered 2 ½

 (5 cm) to the right of the Mounting Point. 

 

Figure 2:  Analog Clock Mounting Template 

4.

 

Insert a flat-head fastener suitable for the wall surface at the marked point and 
tighten. 

5.

 

Withdraw the fastener until there is a ¼

” 

(or a little more than ½ cm) gap 

between the mounting surface and the back of the fastener head. 

6.

 

Insert the data cable into the jack located at the back of the OnTime Clock.
