Cabling is away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and

 

sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband

 

amplifiers.

 

Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.

 

Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case

 

is not restricted. 3Com recommends you provide a minimum of

 

25 mm (1 in.) clearance.

OfficeConnect units. Only stick the feet to the marked areas at each

 

corner of the underside of your Router.

If you are stacking your Router with other OfficeConnect units, install the

 

Router at the top of the stack. Refer to the documentation supplied with

 

your other OfficeConnect unit for details on using the stacking clip.

 

A stacking clip is not supplied with the Router. Use the stacking clip

 

supplied with another stackable OfficeConnect unit.

There are two slots on the underside of the Router that can be used for

 

wall mounting.

outlet.Do not install the Router more than 200 cm above the ground.

 

You will need two suitable screws to wall mount the unit. To do this:

1Ensure that the wall you use is smooth, flat, dry and sturdy and make two screw holes which are 150 mm (5.9 in.) apart.

2Fix the screws into the wall, leaving their heads 3 mm (0.12 in.) clear of the wall surface.

3Remove any connections to the unit and locate it over the screw heads. When in line, gently push the unit on to the wall and move it downwards to secure.
