4 Site Environment
Do not place this product in an environment with flammable or explosive gases, or smoke.
The installation site must be free from leaking or dripping water, heavy dew, and humidity. If the relative
humidity is high, use dehumidifiers or dehumidifying air conditioners.
The installation site must be well ventilated. Ensure that air vents on the equipment are not blocked.
Do not install the equipment in a dusty environment.
Leave at least 50 mm clearance at the rear and both sides of the chassis for heat dissipation.
If multiple routers are installed in a cabinet/rack, leave at least 1 U (44.45 mm) distance between each two
routers.
Ensure that the temperature and humidity at the installation site meet the router operation requirements. For
the specific requirements, see the Hardware Description for your router on the Huawei support website.
5 Installing the Router
Scenario 1: Desk Mounting
Scenario 2: Wall Mounting
The AR100/AR120/AR150/AR160/AR200 and AR1200 series routers can be desk-mounted.
Do not stack routers on top of or closely next to each other.
Some router models provide a security slot ( ) on the panel of the chassis. You can install a security lock
(separately purchased) in this slot to protect the router against theft.

The AR100/AR120/AR150/AR160/AR200 and AR1200 series routers can be wall-mounted.
Before drilling holes in a wall, make sure there are no power cables in the wall to avoid electric shock.
Ensure that there are no flammable or explosive materials near the router and no obstructions within 100 mm around the router.
The panel with interfaces must face down to protect the interfaces from water.
