Installing the Cisco RV260P

To prevent the device from overheating or being damaged:

• Ambient Temperature — Do not operate it in an area that exceeds an
ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C).

•Air Flow — Be sure that there is adequate airflow around the device. If
wall mounting the device, make sure that the heat dissipation holes are
to the side.

• Circuit Overloading — Adding the device to the power outlet must not
overload that circuit.

•Mechanical Loading — Be sure that the device is level and stable to
avoid any hazardous conditions and that it is secure to prevent it from
sliding or shifting out of position. Do not place anything on top of the
device, as excessive weight may damage it.

Desktop Mounting

For desktop mounting, place the device on a flat surface so that it sits on its
four rubber feet.
