Chapter 5 Preparing Your Site for Installation
Safety Guidelines
• The environmental conditions your installation site must meet to maintain normal operation
Before installing your Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router, you must consider power
and cabling requirements that must be in place at your installation site, special equipment for installing
the router, and the environmental conditions your installation site must meet to maintain normal
operation. This chapter guides you through the process of preparing for router installation.
The shipping package for the router is engineered to reduce the chances of product damage associated
with routine material handling experienced during shipment:
• Router should always be transported or stored in its shipping package in the upright position.
• Keep the router in the shipping container until you have determined the installation site.
Inspect all items for shipping damage. If an item appears damaged, contact a Cisco customer service
representative immediately.
Safety Guidelines
Before you begin the installation or replacement procedure, review the safety guidelines in this section
to avoid injuring yourself or damaging the equipment.
Note This section contains guidelines and do not include every potentially hazardous situation. When you
install a router, always use common sense and caution.
Safety Warnings
Safety warnings appear throughout this publication in procedures that, if performed incorrectly, might
harm you. A warning symbol precedes each warning statement.
Before you install, configure, or perform maintenance on the router, review the documentation for the
procedure you are about to perform, paying special attention to the safety warnings. If you need
translations of the safety warnings.
Note Do not unpack the system until you are ready to install it. Keep the chassis in the shipping container to
prevent accidental damage until you determined an installation site. Use the appropriate unpacking
documentation included with the system.
Read the installation instructions in this document before you connect the system to its power source.
Failure to read and follow these guidelines could lead to an unsuccessful installation and possibly
damage to the system and components.
