To avoid problems during installation and ongoing operations, follow these general precautions when you
plan equipment locations and connections:
•
Use the
show environment all
command regularly to check the internal system status. The environmental
monitor continually checks the interior chassis environment; it provides warnings about high temperature
and creates reports on other potentially dangerous occurrences. If warning messages are displayed, take
immediate action to identify the cause, and correct the problem.
•
Keep the Cisco ASR 902 Router off the floor and out of areas that collect dust.
•
Follow ESD-prevention procedures to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge can
cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.
Locating for Proper Airflow
Ensure that the Cisco ASR 902 Router location has enough airflow to keep the system operating within the
environmental characteristics and the air temperature is sufficient to compensate for the heat dissipated by
the system. For more information, see the
section.
