Physical Installation
There are three ways to place the Router. The first way is
to place the Router horizontally on a surface. The second
way is to mount the Router on a wall. The third way is to
mount the Router in a standard-sized, 19-inch high rack.
Horizontal Placement
The Router has four rubber feet on its bottom panel. Set
the Router on a flat surface near an electrical outlet.
WARNING:
Do not place excessive weight
on top of the Router; too much weight could
damage it.
Wall-Mount Placement
The Router has two wall-mount slots on its bottom
panel. The distance between the two slots is 94 mm
(3.70 inches).
Two screws are needed to mount the Router.
