Attaching the Cable-Management Bracket

Attaching the Cable-Management Bracket

The cable-management brackets mount to each rack-mount bracket on the chassis to provide cable-management to both sides of the chassis (parallel with card orientation). These brackets are screw mounted to the rack-mount brackets to allow easy installation and removal of cables.

The cable-management brackets for the Cisco ASR 1004 Router contain three independent cable-management “U” type features with four screws and provides cable dressing of each card module slots. For Cisco ASR 1000 SIPs, these brackets work in tandem with shared port adapter product feature cable-management device to allow installation and removal of adjacent cards without the need to remove cables.

Note Make certain that the cable-management bracket “U” type feature is facing upwards when you attach it to the chassis.

Follow these steps to attach the cable-management brackets to both sides of the Cisco ASR 1004 Router in the equipment rack:

Step 1 Align the cable-management bracket to the rack-mount bracket on one side of the Cisco ASR 1004 Router. The cable-management bracket aligns to the top hole of the chassis rack-mount bracket.

Step 2 Using a Phillips screwdriver, insert the screw through cable-management bracket and into the chassis rack-mount and tighten the screw.
