Chapter 4 Site Planning Considerations

Noise Control

Noise Control

A routing system can generate large amounts of fan noise. The 8-slot line card chassis has some built-in noise reduction, such as fan speed control. If the routing system is installed in an environment where excessive noise could be harmful to personnel, some other noise reduction options could be attempted. Passive noise reduction could include the installation of foam panels to insulate the surrounding area from the noise.

Additional noise-reduction measures have to be designed on an individual site basis.

Cisco Installation Services

Cisco or a Cisco partner can provide a complete installation, from planning to power up. For information about Cisco or Cisco partner installation services, consult Cisco Customer Advocacy.

System Testing, Certification, and Warranties

After the routing system has been installed, it must be tested and certified. Consult Cisco Customer Advocacy for information about testing, certification, and warranties.
