Installing the Cisco 805 Router 2-15
Mounting the Router
Figure 2-7 Wall-Mounting Brackets (Bottom of Router)
When mounting the router, the following conditions must be met:
Because you will use the front panel LEDs as status and problem indicators, the router
front panel must face upward and be easily visible.
The back panel must face downward to reduce strain on the cable connections.
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 Figure2-9. The last page of this manual provides a
template for measuring the distance between the screws.
