Chapter 7 Cisco ASR 1004 Router Overview and Installation
Installing the Cisco ASR 1004 Router in a Rack
Note In the next step, insert the top screw diagonally from the bottom screw that you just
attached.This helps with keeping the chassis in place.
b. Insert the top screw into the third hole down from the top of the rack-mount ear and tighten the screw
to the rack rail.
c. Insert a screw in the middle of the rack-mount bracket on both sides of the chassis.
d. Repeat these steps for the other side of the chassis.
Note As a result of using the specified rack-mount bracket ear holes, the cable-management bracket
can be easily attached to the rack-mount bracket when the chassis is in the rack.
Step 8 Tighten all screws on each side to secure the chassis to the equipment rack.
You can install your Cisco ASR 1004 chassis on a two-post rack or a four-post rack. For instructions,
see the “Two-Post Rack Installation” section on page 7-14 or the “Four-Post Rack Installation” section
on page 7-15.
Two-Post Rack Installation
The Cisco ASR 1004 Router can be installed on a two-post rack, either 19 inch or 23 inch.
Note 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.
Caution 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.
Step 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.
