Preparing for Installation
This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection to be provided as part of the building installation.
Caution
Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations.
The Cisco ASR 902 Router installation must comply with all the applicable codes, and is approved for
Note
use with copper conductors only. The ground bond-fastening hardware should be of compatible material
and preclude loosening, deterioration, and electrochemical corrosion of hardware and joined material.
Attachment of the chassis ground to a central office or other interior ground system must be made with a
6-AWG gauge wire copper ground conductor at a minimum.
The table below lists the maximum power draw of the Cisco ASR 902 Router chassis and its configurable
hardware components. The maximum power-draw values are not affected by whether the router chassis
contains 1 or 2 power supplies and if AC or DC.
