Wall Requirements for ACX500 Outdoor Routers
NOTE: The information provided in this topic is applicable for both the ACX500 outdoor router
variants—ACX500 outdoor router and ACX500 outdoor router with PoE.
You can install the ACX500 outdoor router on a wall. When choosing a location, allow at least 6 in.
(15.2 cm) of clearance between the sides of the chassis (with the router in installed position) and
adjacent equipment or walls. Ensure that the wall onto which the router is installed is stable and
securely supported. If you are mounting the router in sheetrock (wall board with a gypsum plaster core)
or in wall board not backed by wall studs, use hollow wall anchors capable of supporting the combined
weight of two fully loaded chassis. Insert the screws into wall studs wherever possible to provide added
support for the chassis.
Use the wall-mounting kit from Juniper Networks to mount the router on a wall. The wall-mounting kit
is not part of the standard package and needs to be ordered separately.

You can install the ACX500 outdoor router on a pole. When choosing a location, allow at least 6 in.
(15.2 cm) of clearance between the sides of the chassis (with the router in installed position) and
adjacent equipment or walls. Ensure that the pole onto which the router is installed is stable and
securely supported. Ensure that the pole should be able to carry the load of the fully configured router.
The width of the pole must be within the range of 2 in. (5 cm) through 16 in. (40.6 cm) for the pole-
mounting brackets to fit properly.
Use the pole-mounting kit from Juniper Networks to mount the router on a pole. The pole-mounting kit
