Radio Frequency Interference
When electromagnetic fields act over a long distance, radio frequency interference (RFI) can be propagated. Building wiring can often act as an antenna, receiving the RFI signals and creating more EMI on the wiring.
If you use
Lightning and AC Power Fault Interference
If signal wires exceed recommended cabling distances, or if signal wires pass between buildings, you should consider the effect that a lightning strike in your vicinity might have on the Cisco 1000 Series Router.

Rack-Mounting and Location Guidelines
The Cisco 1000 Series Router is designed for standalone,
The sections that follow describe criteria for selecting a rack to mount the Cisco 1000 Series Router, guidelines for placing the rack for reliable operation, and safety precautions to take to prevent bodily injury when mounting a Cisco ASR1000 Series system in a rack.
Precautions for Rack-Mounting
The following
•Do not move large racks by yourself. Due to the height and weight of a rack, a minimum of two people are required to accomplish this task.
•Ensure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
•Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
•Do not step or stand on any component or system when servicing other systems or components in a rack.
•When mounting the Cisco 1000 Series Router in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
•If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, then install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.
