Attaching a Chassis Ground Connection

Connecting the Cisco ASR 1006 Router chassis to ground is required for all DC powered installations and

any AC powered installation where compliance with Telcordia grounding requirements is necessary.

The dual-lug chassis stud must be installed, the SIP and SPA must be fully inserted and screwed in and

earthed to prevent a potential hazard in a telecom line.

Have the recommended tools and supplies available before you begin this procedure.

The following image shows how to attach the ground lugs on the Cisco ASR 1006 chassis.

This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the

absence of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority

or an electrician if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024

Before you connect power or turn on power to your chassis, you must provide an adequate chassis ground

(earth) connection for the chassis. A chassis ground connector is provided on each Cisco ASR 1006 Router.

There is a stud on the side of the chassis and on the DC power supply (primary grounding stud).
