Cisco ASR 1006 User Manual

Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection
Connecting the Cisco ASR 1006 Router chassis to ground is required for all DC powered installations and
any AC powered installation where compliance with Telcordia grounding requirements is necessary.
The dual-lug chassis stud must be installed, the SIP and SPA must be fully inserted and screwed in and
earthed to prevent a potential hazard in a telecom line.
Caution
Have the recommended tools and supplies available before you begin this procedure.
The following image shows how to attach the ground lugs on the Cisco ASR 1006 chassis.

This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the
absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority
or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024
Warning
Before you connect power or turn on power to your chassis, you must provide an adequate chassis ground
(earth) connection for the chassis. A chassis ground connector is provided on each Cisco ASR 1006 Router.
There is a stud on the side of the chassis and on the DC power supply (primary grounding stud).
