Chapter 2 Installation

Mounting Your Router

The following conditions must be met when you mount the router:

•Because you will use the LEDs as status and problem indicators, the front panel must face upward and be easily visible.

•The router must be mounted low enough for you to see the LEDs in case you need to troubleshoot a problem.

•The power supply must rest on a horizontal surface such as the floor or a table. If the power supply is not supported, it might place strain on the power supply cable and cause it to disconnect from the connector on the router back panel.

To mount the router, follow the steps in Figure 2-8. The last page of this manual provides a template for measuring the distance between the screws.
