Installing the Cisco RV260W

To prevent the device from overheating or being damaged:

• Ambient Temperature — Do not operate the device 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.

WARNING This unit contains a replaceable battery.

CAUTION Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect

type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

Desktop Mounting

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

Wall Mounting

The RV260W router has two wall-mount slots on the bottom panel. To
mount the router on a wall, you will need to use the wall-mount kit screws
(included).

Guidelines for Mounting the Router on a Wall

When choosing a location for mounting the router on a wall, consider cable
limitations and wall structure.

• Mount the router with the front panel facing upward. Make sure to mount
the router low enough so that you can see the LEDs.

• Make sure that the power supply rests on a horizontal surface such as
the floor or a table. If the power supply is not supported, the strain on
the power adapter cable could cause it to disconnect from the router.

• Do not install the router or its power supply next to a heat source of any
kind, including heating vents.

You can mount the router on a hollow wall or a wall stud. To mount the
router, follow these steps:

STEP 1 Position the router on the wall to determine where to attach the two

mounting screws. Drill two pilot holes at approximately 109 mm
apart.

STEP 2 Insert a screw into each hole, leaving a gap between the surface

and the base of the screw head of 1 to 1.2 mm.

STEP 3 Place the router wall-mount slots over the screws and slide the

router down until the screws fit snugly into the wall-mount slots.

WARNING Insecure mounting might damage the router or cause injury.

Cisco is not responsible for damages incurred due to insecure
wall-mounting.

WARNING For safety reasons, please ensure that the heat dissipation

holes are facing sideways.
