About Mounting Location Requirements
You can mount a Cisco VG202, Cisco VG202XM, Cisco VG204, or Cisco VG204XM voice gateway
chassis onto either a wall or on a desk or shelf.
The mounting location must provide the following:
• Adequate access to the chassis. See Access to the Chassis, page 2-1.
• Access to a suitable power source. See Power Source, page 2-2.
• Allowance for adequate heat dissipation and airflow around the chassis. Inadequate ventilation can
result in overheating and damage. See Temperature Control and Ventilation, page 2-2.
• Access to an appropriate earth ground. See Installing the Ground Connection, page 3-7.
Access to the Chassis
Allow space at the back of the chassis for cable connections. Also consider the need to access the chassis
for future upgrades, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
