Figure 2-6 Wall-Mounting Brackets (Bottom of Router)
The following conditions must be met when you mount the router:
• Because you will use the LEDs as status and problem indicators, the LEDs on
the front panel must face upward and must 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 could place strain on the power
supply cable and cause it to disconnect from the connector on the router back
panel.
To mount the router on a wall, follow the steps given after Figure 2-7.
