Find a Location
Note: Before connecting your Netopia 4753, be sure to read the important safety information contained in
Appendix E, “Technical Specifications and Safety Information.”
When choosing a location for the Netopia Router, consider:
■ Available space and ease of installation
■ Physical layout of the building and how to best use the physical space available for connecting your Netopia
Router to the LAN
■ Available wiring and jacks
■ Distance from the point of installation to the next device (length of cable or wall wiring)
■ Ease of access to the front of the unit for configuration and monitoring
■ Ease of access to the back of the unit for checking and changing cables
■ Cable length and network size limitations when expanding networks
For small networks, install the Netopia 4753 near one of the LANs. For large networks, you can install the
Netopia 4753 in a wiring closet or a central network administration site.
