3. Mounting Recommendations 

 
For best performance, please consider the following: 
 

  The router should be mounted on a flat solid work surface. 
  The DIN rail adapter is included for DIN rail mounting. 
  Whip antennas should be kept at least 6 cm from cables and metal surfaces on all 

sides.  When using an external antenna in an exposed area, a lightning surge 
suppressor should be used. 

  An external antenna should be used when mounting the router on a metal surface or 

inside a metal enclosure.
