Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 10 pounds (4.5 kg), and do not stack 
routers on a desktop. Excessive distributed weight of more than 10 pounds, or pound point load of 
10 pounds on top could damage the chassis.

Your chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling. For placing the router on a 
desktop, keep at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) of clear space beside the cooling inlet and exhaust vents.

After the router is installed, you must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis 
ground connection procedures, see the

This section explains how to mount Cisco 2811 routers on a wall or other vertical surface. Mounting

The following warning applies to Cisco 2811 routers:

This unit is intended to be mounted on a wall. Please read the wall mounting instructions carefully 
before beginning installation. Failure to use the correct hardware or to follow the correct procedures
