Chapter 4 Cisco ASR 1006 Router Overview and Installation

Connecting Power to Cisco ASR 1006 Router

Note DC input power cables must be connected to the PDU terminal studs in the proper positive

(+)and negative (–) polarity. In some cases, the DC cable leads are labeled, which is a relatively safe indication of the polarity. However, you must verify the polarity by measuring the voltage between the DC cable leads. When making the measurement, the positive (+) lead and the negative (–) lead must always match the (+) and (–) labels on the power distribution unit.

An earth ground cable is required for each DC PDU. We recommend that you use at least 6-AWG multistrand copper wire. This wire is not available from Cisco Systems; it is available from any commercial cable vendor.

The ground wire cable lug should be dual-hole (as shown in Figure 4-15) and able to fit over M6 terminal studs at 0.625 inch (15.88mm) centers. Recommended lug terminal wire size Panduit part number:

LCD8-14A-L for 8AWG wire size

LCD6-14A-L for 6AWG wire size

Note To avoid hazardous conditions, all components in the area where DC input power is accessible must be properly insulated. Therefore, before installing the DC cable lugs, be sure to insulate the lugs according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Warning When you install the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last.
