Cisco ASR 1004 Hardware Installation Guide

Two-Post Rack Installation
The Cisco ASR 1004 Router can be installed on a two-post rack, either 19 inch or 23 inch.
Inner clearance (the width between the inner sides of the two posts or rails) must be at least 19 inches
(48.26cm). The height of the chassis is 6.95 inches (17.653 cm). Airflow through the chassis is from front
to back.
Note
If you are using a two-post rack secure the rack to the floor surface to prevent tipping and avoid bodily
injury and component damage.
Caution
SUMMARY STEPS
1.
Position the chassis so the front is closest to you and lift it carefully into the rack. To prevent injury, avoid
any sudden twists or moves.
2.
Slide the chassis into the rack, pushing it back until the brackets meet the mounting strips or posts on both
sides of the rack.
3.
Keeping the brackets flush against the posts or mounting strips, align the holes in the brackets with the
holes on the rack or mounting strip.
4.
For each bracket, insert and tighten two screws to the rack on both sides.
