To ensure a satisfactory supplemental ground connection to the router, use these parts:
•
One grounding lug, which has two M6 bolt holes with 0.625- to 0.75-inch (15.86- to 19.05-mm) spacing
between them, and a wire receptacle large enough to accept a six AWG or larger, multistrand copper
wire. For four AWG cable, use Panduit part number LCD4-14AF-L; for six AWG, use Panduit part
number LCD6-14AF-L.
•
Two 10-32 round-head screws and two locking washers (nickel-plated brass is ideal).
•
One grounding wire. Although we recommend at least six AWG multistrand copper wire, the wire
diameter and length depend on your router location and site environment. This cable is not available
from Cisco Systems; it is available from any commercial cable vendor.
Cisco ASR 9001 Router Port Connection Guidelines
This section contains detailed cabling and signal information for all interface and port connections to the RP.
It also provides information for Ethernet routing and equipment.
Ports labeled Ethernet, SYNC, CONSOLE, and AUX are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV
circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits.
Caution
In Cisco ASR 9001-S Router, two 10 GE fixed SFP+ ports (SFP+2 and SFP+3) are disabled by default,
and can be enabled by a license upgrade.
