More clearance is required when stacking multiple Cisco 1100 ISRs or having heat removal capability to
maintain the surrounding air temperature to stay within the specified operating condition.
Note
Attaching the Chassis
The tasks that you perform for attaching the router chassis to the wall or for mounting it in a rack are based
on the specific model of the Cisco 1100 Series Integrated Service Router.
The recommended clearance when horizontally mounted is 1.5 inches on both sides for clearance and 1.75
inches on top. I/O side clearance is needed as it is required to access the cable connections. Clearance is not
required on the backside (opposite side from I/O face) unless DIN rail mounting is required. Clearance is
required to attach and mount the DIN rail bracket.
Mounting on the Wall
The Cisco 1100 Series ISRs have mounting key-hole slots on the bottom of the chassis for mounting the unit
on a wall or other vertical surface, as shown in the figure below.
