Setting the Chassis on a Desktop

You can place Cisco 1900 series routers on a desktop or shelf. The Cisco 1900 series router is shipped with the rubber feet attached to the chassis to protect the desktop.

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 kilograms). Excessive weight on top of the router could damage the chassis.

Chassis Grounding

After the router has been installed, you must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis ground connection procedure, see the “Installing the Chassis Ground Connection” section on page 4-9.

Wall-Mounting the Chassis

Warning If your Cisco 1900 series router uses a DC power source, you cannot wall-mount it.

Warning Read the wall-mounting instructions carefully before beginning installation. Failure to use the correct hardware or to follow the correct procedures could result in a hazardous situation to people and damage to the system. Statement 378
