Verifying Rack Dimensions

When handling the chassis, always follow proper lifting practices. See the

section on page 5-23

The Cisco ASR 1002-X Router can be installed with both front or rear rack mount brackets.

Verifying Rack Dimensions

Before you install the chassis, measure the space between the vertical mounting flanges (rails) on your

equipment rack to verify that the rack conforms to the measurements shown in the following image.

SUMMARY STEPS

1. Mark and measure the distance between the holes on the left and right mounting rails.

2. Measure the space between the inner edges of the left front and right front mounting flanges on the

equipment rack.

DETAILED STEPS

Mark and measure the distance between the holes on the left and right mounting rails.

The distance should measure 18.31 inches ± 0.06 inches (46.5 cm ± 0.15 cm).

Measure for pairs of holes near the bottom, middle, and top of the equipment rack to ensure that the rack posts

are parallel.

Measure the space between the inner edges of the left front and right front mounting flanges on the equipment rack.

The space must be at least 17.7 inches (45 cm) to accommodate the chassis that is 17.25 inches (43.8 cm) wide and fits

between the mounting posts on the rack.
