- Preinstallation Information
- Step 1 Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap that you provide, ensuring that it makes good skin contact.
- Step 2 Do not touch any exposed contact pins or connector shells of interface ports that do not have a cable attached.
- Step 1 Obtain a broadband or Ethernet connection from your service provider.
- Step 2 Remove the cables and product documentation from the plastic bag. Remove the router power adapter and the black power cord from the accessory kit.
- Step 3 If you ordered a wireless router, remove the antenna from the box.
- Step 4 Gather the Ethernet devices to be connected to the router: servers, workstations, or PCs. Make sure that there is a network interface card (NIC) in each device for connecting to the Ethernet ports.
- Step 5 If you plan to configure the software by using Cisco IOS commands and the console port, provide an ASCII terminal or a PC that is running terminal emulation software to connect to the console port.
- Step 6 If you plan to connect a modem, provide the modem and modem cable.
- Step 7 If you plan to use the cable-lock feature, provide a Kensington or equivalent locking cable.
- Step 8 Read the safety warnings (see the “Safety Warnings and Guidelines” section on page 2-1) and information about preventing damage to the router (see the “Preventing Damage to the Router” section on page 2-3).
- Router Mounting Procedures
- Step 1 Attach the antenna to the reverse-polarity threaded Neill-Concelman (RP-TNC) connector on the front of the router, and then tighten the antenna.
- Step 2 Orient the antenna vertically (straight up).
- Step 1 Place the unit upside-down on the flat surface.
- Step 2 Attach the four rubber pads to the recessed areas on the bottom of the unit.
- Step 3 Place the unit right-side-up on the flat surface.
- Step 4 If you have a wireless router, connect the radio antenna to the router (see the “Connecting a Radio Antenna to a Wireless Router” section on page 3-1).
- Step 5 Place the power supply unit on a desktop near an AC power source. Do not stack the power supply on the router.
- Step 1 If you have a wireless router, connect the radio antenna to the router (see the “Connecting a Radio Antenna to a Wireless Router” section on page 3-1).
- Step 2 Position the router on the wall to determine where to attach the two mounting screws. Make sure the distance between the screws is 8.25 in. (see Figure 3-1 on page 3-2).
- Step 3 Mount the router on a wall stud or a hollow wall. Perform one of the following, as appropriate:
- Step 4 Insert the wood screws or wall anchors (whichever you used) into the mounting-screw holes on the router. Mount the router vertically, with the front panel facing upward and the connection to the power cord facing downward.
- Step 1 If you have a wireless router, first connect the radio antenna to the router (see the “Connecting a Radio Antenna to a Wireless Router” section on page 3-1).
- Step 2 Using a number 2 Phillips screwdriver and four screws, install a bracket to each side of the router as shown in Figure 3-2.
- Step 3 Using two pairs of screws on each side (supplied with the rack) attach the router to a 19-inch rack. Install the lower pa...
