Chapter 6 Cisco ASR 1002 Router Overview and Installation

Installing the Cisco ASR 1002 Router in a Rack

Note Make sure the rack is stabilized.

Step 1 (Optional) Install a shelf in the rack to support the Cisco ASR 1002 Router. If you are using a shelf then raise the chassis to the level of the shelf. Let the bottom of the chassis rest on the brackets, but continue to support the chassis. Using two people, lift the chassis into the rack using the side handles and grasping underneath the power supply bays.

Step 2 Position the chassis until the rack-mounting flanges are flush against the mounting rails on the rack.

Note Use the second hole up from the bottom of the rack-mount bracket and the second hole down from the top of the rack-mount bracket. This will make it easier to attache the cable-management bracket to the chassis in the equipment rack.

Step 3 Hold the chassis in position against the mounting rails while the second person finger-tightens a screw to the rack rails on each side of the chassis.

Step 4 Finger-tighten screws to the rack rails on each side of the chassis.

Step 5 Tighten all screws on each side to secure the chassis to the equipment rack.
