The Cisco ASR 1002 Router requires at least 3 inches (7.62 cm) of clearance at the inlet and exhaust
vents (the front and top/rear sides of the chassis).
The Cisco ASR 1002 Router should be installed off the floor. Dust that accumulates on the floor is
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 19 inches (48.3 cm) of clearance at the front and rear of the chassis to
install and replace FRUs, or to access network cables and equipment.
The Cisco ASR 1002 Router needs adequate ventilation. Do not install it in an enclosed cabinet
where ventilation is inadequate.
Have the cable-management bracket available if you plan to install it on the front of the chassis.
An adequate chassis ground (earth) connection exists for your router chassis (see the
Chassis Ground Connection" section on page
Always follow proper lifting practices as outlined in the
when handling the chassis.
