Step 5
Ensure that the front of the router is vertical, and tighten the eight bolts to 13 to 15 ft lbs (17.6 to 20.3 Nm).
Ensure that the router is always mounted in a vertical
position.
Note
Step 6
(Optional) When using the optional Cisco external omnidirectional antenna, connect it to the router point as
shown in the above figure. Hand-tighten the antenna to the router.
When the antenna is not installed on the router, it is mandatory to install the antenna dust cap that is
shipped with the router. This dust cap protects the router interior from environmental elements like
water, heat, cold, and dust.
