Cisco ASR 1002-X Router Overview and Installation
-When mounting this unit 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, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing
the unit in the rack. Statement 1006
We recommend that you allow at least 1 or 2 inches (2.54 or 5.08 cm) of vertical clearance between the
router and any equipment directly above and below it.
To install the chassis in the rack, perform the following steps:
Step 1
On the chassis, ensure that all the screw fasteners on the installed components are securely tightened.
Step 2
Ensue that your path to the rack is unobstructed. If the rack is on wheels, ensure that the brakes are
engaged or that the rack is otherwise stabilized. (See the next sections on the types of racks you can use
to install the chassis.)
(Optional) Install a shelf in the rack to support the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router. This helps support the
Step 3
chassis when you secure it to the rack.
Lift the chassis into position between the rack posts with the help of another person.
Step 4
Align the mounting bracket holes with the rack post holes and attach the chassis to the rack.
Step 5
Note
Position the chassis until the rack-mounting flanges are flush against the mounting rails on the rack.
Step 6
Tip
Hold the chassis in position against the mounting rails in the equipment rack and perform these steps:
Step 7
Insert the bottom screw into the second hole from the bottom of the rack mount ear and use a

hand-held screw driver to tighten the screw to the rack rail.
Tip
b.
Insert the top screw into the second hole from the top of the rack mount ear diagonally from the
bottom screw, and tighten the screw to the rack rail.
Insert the four screws to secure the chassis to the rack equipment.
c.
As a result of using the specified rack mount bracket ear holes, the cable management bracket can be
Tip
easily attached to the rack mount bracket when the chassis is in the rack.
Tighten all the screws on each side to secure the chassis to the equipment rack.
Step 8
OL-13208-11
If you are using a shelf, raise the chassis to the level of the shelf. Let the bottom of the chassis
rest on the brackets, but continue to support the chassis.
To allow space to attach the cable management brackets to the chassis in the rack easily, ensure
that you use the rack mount bracket ear holes mentioned in the subsequent steps.
To make installation easier, insert one screw at the bottom of the chassis and the next screw at
the top of the chassis diagonally from the first screw.
