Installation Methods
The Cisco cBR-8 router can be either mounted on the rack at the front or in the middle. Also, you can mount the router on a standard 19-inch-wide four-post equipment rack unit or a two-post rack unit.
Note |
The Cisco cBR-8 router is usually shipped fully loaded. The fully configured system weighs approximately 430 lb. You must remove the components from the chassis to make the chassis lighter for the rack installation. Remove all power supplies, supervisor cards, line cards, rear PIC cards, and fan modules, before rack-mounting to reduce the weight to approximately 117 lb. For instructions on how to remove the components, see the monitoring sections. |
Note |
Make sure that you place the cards and modules in an anti-static bag until you install the chassis in the rack. |
