OL-5786-03
Setting Up the Chassis
Cisco 2811, Cisco 2821, and Cisco 2851 routers can be installed in 19 (48.26-cm)- and 23-inch
(58.42-cm) racks. Cisco 2801 routers can be installed only in 19-inch racks, and cannot be center
mounted. Use the standard brackets shipped with the router for mounting the chassis in a 19-inch rack;
you can order optional larger brackets for mounting the chassis in a 23-inch rack.
Note
Brackets for 23-inch (58.42-cm) equipment racks are not available for Cisco 2801 routers.
You can mount the router in the following ways:
•
Center mounting—Brackets attached in the center of the chassis with only the front panel facing
forward. (This option is not available on Cisco 2801 routers.)
•
Front mounting—Brackets attached at the front of the chassis with the front panel facing forward.
•
Rear mounting—Brackets attached at the rear of the chassis with the rear panel facing forward.
