Rack-Mounting and Wall-Mounting Cisco 3600 Series Routers and the Cisco Redundant Power System 21
Required Tools and Equipment
If you need to install network modules or WAN interface cards, you can do so either before or after
mounting the router, whenever you have better access to the rear panel of the router. For instructions,
refer to your router installation and configuration guide, or your network module and WAN interface
card configuration notes.
Note When choosing a wall on which to mount the router, consider cable limitations and wall
structure.
Required Tools and Equipment
You need the following tools and equipment to install a Cisco 3600 series router on a wall:
• Number 2 Phillips screwdriver
• Small flat-blade screwdriver (Cisco 3620 router only)
• Plastic washers (Cisco 3620 router only)
• Plywood board at least 24 inches wide, 19 inches high, and 1/2-inch thick (60 x 50 x 1.3 cm)
• Eight M3.5 or #6 x 1/2-inch flat-head wood screws
• Four wood screws, at least 3/16-inch x 2-1/2 inches, to mount the plywood to the wall
• ESD-preventive wrist strap
Cisco Systems does not supply the board or screws.
The Cisco 3620 router requires 19-inch rack brackets to mount on a wall (shipped with the router),
and the Cisco 3640 router requires 23-inch or 24-inch rack brackets to mount on a wall (specify
when you order, or order separately). Figure 27 shows the wall-mount brackets.
