Install the Cables in the Cable-Management Bracket

No specific card level cable-management will be provided on the SIP carrier cards. SPAs utilize the SPA cable-management
brackets that are provided with each SPA as part of their accessory kits. Cables coming off the front side of the SPAs and SIPs
utilize the chassis level cable-management brackets provided on the chassis rack mount brackets (see Figure 8).
To secure shared port adapter interface cables and input or output cables connected to the Cisco ASR 1006 Router, follow these
steps:
Step1 When installing the network interface cables, route the cables up to and through the cable-management bracket ‘U’
device. If you are using very thin cables that slip through the bracket openings, insert nylon cable ties through the holes
in the bracket and wrap them around the cables to secure them. See Figure 8.
Step2 Route the excess cable out through either end of the bracket, coil it, and secure it to the rack using nylon cable ties or
some other mode of attachment.
Step3 It might be necessary to bundle longer cables to avoid tangling them. Do this at the cable-management bracket or at
the rack, but leave enough slack in the cables to remove processor modules and change cables as required. Also, do not
block the power supply air vents with cables.
This completes the procedure for installing the cables in the cable-management bracket. Proceed to the “Start the System”
section on page 15 to complete the installation.
