Chapter 3 Installing and Connecting the Router

Installing the Router

Setting the Chassis on a Desktop

You can place the Cisco ISR 4451-X on a desktop, bench top, or shelf.

Note Do not set the chassis in an area where the high accoustic noise can be an issue.

Warning To prevent personal injury or damage to the chassis, never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis using the handles on modules (such as power supplies, fans, or cards); these types of handles are not designed to support the weight of the unit. Statement 1032

Caution Do not place anything on top of the router that weighs more than 10 pounds (4.5 kg), and do not stack routers on a desktop. Excessive distributed weight of more than 10 pounds, or pound point load of 10 pounds on top could damage the chassis.

Caution Your chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling. For placing the router on a desktop, keep at least 1 inch (2.54 cm) of clear space beside the cooling inlet and exhaust vents.

After the router is installed, you must connect the chassis to a reliable earth ground. For the chassis ground connection procedures, see the “Chassis Grounding” section on page 3-11.
