Installing the Cisco 810 ISR
Installing on a Table
To install the router on a table or other flat horizontal surface, firmly place the router on a table or other
horizontal surface. Keep at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) of clear space for heat dissipation.
Connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis ground connection procedures, see the
“Installing the Router Using the Configurable Low Profile DIN Mount” section on page 2-32.
Mounting on a Wall
The Cisco 819 ISR has mounting holes on the bottom of the chassis for mounting the unit on a wall or
other vertical surface. The attachment hardware is provided.
Tip When choosing a location for wall-mounting the router, consider cable limitations and wall structure.
To mount the router on a wall, follow these steps:
Step 1 Remove the screws on the sides of the routers.
Step 2 Attach the standard brackets to the chassis using the three screws provided for each bracket. (See
Figure 2-25.)

Step 3
Install the router to a wall stud using two number-10 wood screws, round- or pan-head, with number-10
washers or two number-10 washer-head screws. The screws must be long enough to penetrate at least 1.0
inch (25.4 mm) into the supporting wood or metal wall stud. (See Figure 2-26.)
Note The orientation of the Cisco 819 ISR products is critical when wall-mounting. The router must
be oriented as shown in Figure 2-26 with the left side of the router rotated up (as viewed from
the IO side) to comply with IP41 and safety criteria. No other wall mounting orientation is
supported.
