Warning No operator serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel. Warning Before working on a chassis or working near power supplies, unplug the power cord on AC units; disconnect the power at the circuit breaker on DC units.
Chapter 2 Installation Preparing for Installation Warning To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV) circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and WAN ports contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and WAN ports both use RJ-45 connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.
Chapter 2 Installation Preparing for Installation Unpacking the Box Figure 2-1 shows the items included with your router. If any of the items is missing or damaged, contact your customer service representative.
Chapter 2 Installation Preventing Router Damage Preventing Router Damage Follow these guidelines when connecting devices to your router: • Connect the color-coded cables supplied by Cisco Systems to the color-coded ports on the back panel. • If you must supply your own cable, see Appendix A for cabling specifications. If this appendix does not provide specifications for a particular cable, we strongly recommend ordering the cable from Cisco Systems.

Chapter 2 Installation Mounting Your Router Mounting on Wall You can mount your router on a wall or other vertical surface by using the molded mounting brackets on the bottom of the router and two number-six, 3/4-in. (M3.5 x 20 mm) screws. You must provide the screws. Figure 2-8 shows the mounting brackets. Caution If you are mounting your router on drywall, use two hollow wall-anchors (1/8 in. with 5/16-in. drill bit, or M3 with 8-mm drill bit) to secure the screws.
Chapter 2 Installation Mounting Your Router • The power supply must rest on a horizontal surface such as the floor or a table. If the power supply is not supported, it might place strain on the power supply cable and cause it to disconnect from the connector on the router back panel. To mount the router, follow the steps in Figure 2-9. The last page of this manual provides a template for measuring the distance between the screws.
