Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 10 pounds (4.5 kilograms), and do not stack routers on a desktop. Excessive weight on top of the router could damage the chassis.

Do not install the router or power supplies next to a heat source of any kind, including heating vents.

The top surface of the router is hot since heat is dissipated through the top. Do not keep any object in direct contact with the surface for a prolonged period.

Installing Antennas

The Cisco 890 series wireless routers have three reverse-polarity threaded Neill-Concelman (RP-TNC) connectors on the back panel. The antennas that are shipped with the router are dual-band 2.4-GHz to 5-GHz omnidirectional dipole antennas.
