Preinstallation Requirements and Planning for Cisco 2800 Series Routers
OL-5784-01
  General Site Requirements
Site Environment
Cisco 2800 series routers can be placed on a desktop or installed in a rack. This Cisco 2811 router can 
also be wall mounted. The location of your router and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring room 
are extremely important considerations for proper operation. Equipment placed too close together, 
inadequate ventilation, and inaccessible panels can cause malfunctions and shutdowns, and can make 
maintenance difficult. Plan for access to both front and rear panels of the router. 
When planning your site layout and equipment locations, remember the precautions described in the next 
section “
,” to help avoid equipment failures and reduce the possibility of 
environmentally caused shutdowns. If you are currently experiencing shutdowns or an unusually high 
number of errors with your existing equipment, these precautions may help you isolate the cause of the 
failures and prevent future problems.
