Cisco ASR 1004 Hardware Installation Guide

To prevent the chassis from overheating, never install a Cisco ASR 1002-X Router in an enclosed room
that is not properly ventilated or air conditioned.
Caution
•
Always install the heavier equipment in the lower half of a rack to maintain a low center of gravity to
prevent the rack from falling over.
•
Install and use the cable management brackets included with the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router to keep the
cables organized and out of the way of the cards and processors. Ensure that cables from other equipment
already installed in the rack do not impair access to the cards or require you to disconnect cables
unnecessarily to perform equipment maintenance or upgrades.
•
Install rack stabilizers (if available) before you mount the chassis.
•
Provide an adequate chassis ground (earth) connection for your router chassis.
In addition to the preceding guidelines, review the precautions for avoiding excessive temperature conditions
described in the “Site Environmental Requirements” section on page 5-9 .

your chassis, see the “Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Component Overview” section on page 2-1 for
information about site considerations.
If you are not rack-mounting your Cisco ASR 1000 series chassis, place it on a sturdy equipment shelf or
tabletop.
