Chapter 3 Installing the Cisco uBR7225VXR Router

Installing the Chassis in a Workbench or Tabletop Environment

Step 6 Insert the 10/32 x 3/8 slotted screws (two to a side) through the brackets and into the mounting strip (use the top and bottom bracket holes, shown in Figure 3-2 on page 3-4, Figure 3-3 on page 3-4, Figure 3-4 on page 3-5, and Figure 3-5 on page 3-5). Using a 7/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver, tighten all the screws.

This completes the procedure for installing the chassis in the rack. Proceed to the “Cabling” section on page 3-13to continue the installation.

Installing the Chassis in a Workbench or Tabletop Environment

The Cisco uBR7225VXR universal broadband router should already be in the area where you will install it, and your installation location should already be determined. If not, refer to the “Site Requirements” section on page 2-5.

When installing the router on a workbench or tabletop, ensure that the surface is clean and in a safe location and that you have considered the following:

The Cisco uBR7225VXR router requires at least 3 inches (7.72 cm) of clearance at the inlet and exhaust vents (the right and left sides of the router).

The Cisco uBR7225VXR router should be installed off the floor. (Dust that accumulates on the floor can be drawn into the interior of the router by the cooling fans. Excessive dust inside the router can cause overtemperature conditions and component failures.)

There must be approximately 23.25 inches (59.06 cm) of clearance at the front, and 19 inches (48.3 cm) at the back of the Cisco uBR7225VXR router for installing and replacing field-replaceable units (FRUs), or accessing network cables or equipment.

Make sure that blank cable interface line card and blank power supply filler plates are installed in empty slots.

The Cisco uBR7225VXR router will receive adequate ventilation (it is being installed in an enclosed cabinet where ventilation is adequate).

If you plan to install the cable-management bracket on the front of the chassis, set aside the cable-management bracket and the four M3 x 6-mm Phillips panhead screws.

Warning Do not stack the chassis on any other equipment. If the chassis falls, it can cause severe bodily injury and equipment damage. Statement 48

Complete the following steps to install the Cisco uBR7225VXR router on a workbench or tabletop:

Step 1 Remove any debris and dust from the tabletop or workbench, and the surrounding area. Also make sure that your path between the router and its new location is unobstructed.

Step 2 On the chassis, ensure that all captive installation screws on the network processing engine, cable interface line cards, and each power supply are tightened.

Warning Two people are required to lift the chassis. To prevent injury, keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. Statement 164
