Installation Guidelines
This section contains information about power and cabling guidelines, workbench or tabletop installation, and rack-mount
installation guidelines.
Power Guidelines
Follow these precautions and recommendations when planning power connections to the Cisco uBR7225VXR router:
•
Check the power at your site before installation and periodically after installation to ensure that you are receiving clean
power. Install a power conditioner if necessary.
•
Provide proper grounding. A grounding lug mount is provided on the rear of the chassis.
•
Make sure that the frame ground is tied to a single building ground.
•
Use a 6-AWG, copper ground conductor (minimum requirement) when attaching the chassis ground to a headend or other
interior ground system.
Cabling Guidelines
When planning the location of a new system, keep in mind signal type, signal speed, and transmission medium, as well as
distance limitations for signaling, EMI, and connector compatibility. Use this information as a guideline in planning your
network connections before installing the Cisco uBR7225VXR router.
Ethernet and Fast Ethernet Connections
The maximum distances for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet network segments and connections depend on the type of transmission
cable being used. See
