18 CHAPTER 2: HARDWARE INSTALLATION
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.
Using the Rubber
Feet
Use the four self-adhesive rubber feet to prevent your Router from
moving around on your desk or when stacking with flat top units. Only
stick the feet to the marked areas at each corner of the underside of your
Router.
Wall Mounting There are two slots on the underside of the Router that can be used for
wall mounting.
When wall mounting the unit, ensure that it is within reach of the power
outlet.
You will need two suitable screws to wall mount the unit. To do this:
1 Ensure that the wall you use is smooth, flat, dry and sturdy and make two
screw holes which are 150 mm (5.9 in.) apart.
2 Fix the screws into the wall, leaving their heads 3 mm (0.12 in.) clear of
the wall surface.
3 Remove 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.
When making connections, be careful not to push the unit up and off the
wall.
CAUTION: Only wall mount single units, do not wall mount stacked
units.
Connecting the
Router
To power up your Router, and then connect it to your modem and to a
computer, do the following:
1 Plug the power adapter into the power adapter socket located on the
back panel of the Router.
2 Plug the power adapter into a standard electrical wall socket. Wait for the
Alert LED to stop flashing.
