The Cisco 7301 router operates as either a tabletop or a rack-mounted unit. A rack-mount kit is standard
equipment included with the Cisco 7301 router when it is shipped from the factory. The kit provides the
hardware needed to mount the router in a standard four-post 19-inch equipment rack or a two-post rack
or a 21–23-inch equipment rack.
If you are not rack-mounting your Cisco 7301 router, place it on a sturdy tabletop or platform.
