Chassis Grounding
After the router is installed, you must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis
ground connection procedures, see the
“Installing the Chassis Ground Connection” section on page 4-5
.
Setting the Chassis on a Desktop
You can place a Cisco IAD2801 on a desktop or shelf. If you are placing a Cisco IAD2801 on a desktop,
you must first install the four rubber feet that are supplied in the accessory kit. They provide space for
air circulation and antiskid protection. Peel the rubber feet from the adhesive strip, and stick them onto
the features marked “+” on the bottom of the chassis.
Warning
To prevent personal injury or damage to the chassis, never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis using the
handles on modules (such as power supplies, fans, or cards); these types of handles are not designed
to support the weight of the unit.
Statement 1032
Caution
Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 10 pounds (4.5 kg), and do not stack
routers on a desktop. Excessive distributed weight of more than 10 pounds, or pound point load of
10 pounds on top could damage the chassis.
Caution
Your chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling. For placing the router on a
desktop, keep at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) of clear space beside the cooling inlet and exhaust vents.
After the router is installed, you must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis
ground connection procedures, see the
“Installing the Chassis Ground Connection” section on page 4-5
