What do I need to arrange before my Note Array is installed?

Whoever hangs the Notes, a few things always sit with your team. Having them done before installation day keeps everything on schedule.

Electrical

An outlet for each Note, on a dedicated circuit, installed by a licensed electrician

Structural backing

Wood studs or blocking behind the full array. Each Note weighs 16.5 lb (7.5 kg).

A plywood panel secured to the studs or blocking also works, and gives every wall plate a flat surface.

Network cabling

An Ethernet connection for each Note. Wi-Fi works too, but we recommend Ethernet for arrays.

These stay with your team even when our installers or your integrator handle the mounting.

Recessed outlets need straight C5 cords, which are sold separately. See How do I plan power outlets for a Note Array?

Our team: We can handle mounting, precise leveling, display pairing and final setup. Your array is ready to use when we leave.
Your integrator or contractor: They work from the wall templates and our installation articles, and we support display pairing remotely. Send them How do I lay out a Note Array with the wall templates? and How do I mount and hang a Note Array?
Your own facilities team: Smaller arrays are well within reach of an in-house team. Follow the same two articles, and book time with our team if you'd like a second set of eyes.

The template from every Note's box is saved and with your installer.
Outlets are in, on their circuit, at the locations marked from the templates.
Backing is in place behind the full footprint, or your panel is built and ready to hang.
Your IT team has confirmed the network can take every Note.
An Ethernet cable is run to each Note's position, if you're going wired.
You know which account will own the array, so every Note can be paired to it. See How do I set up and activate a Note Array?
