Desktop-Mounting the Chassis

Step 1 Verify that a suitable AC power outlet is available.

Caution Do not plug this unit into an AC outlet that does not have a UL-certified receptacle that is properly tied into the building ground.

Step 2 Place the four rubber feet (from the accessory kit) in the four indentations on the underside of the chassis. This helps provide proper airflow through and around the chassis.

Step 3 Place the Cisco IAD on the desktop.

Caution Do not place anything on top of the chassis that weighs more than 10 lb (4.5 kg). Excessive weight on top can damage the chassis.

You can place Cisco IAD2435 on a desktop.

Caution Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 5 pounds (2.25 kg), and do not stack routers on a desktop. Excessive distributed weight of more than 5 pounds, or pound point load of 5 pounds on top could damage the chassis.

Installing the Ground Connection

Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

Warning AC connected units must have a permanent ground connection in addition to the power cable ground wire. NEBS-compliant grounding satisfies this requirement. Statement 284

Warning This equipment needs to be grounded. Use a green and yellow 12 to 14 AWG ground wire to connect the host to earth ground during normal use. Statement 242
