Unpacking the Router
Do not unpack the router until you are ready to install it. If the final installation site will not be ready for some time, keep the chassis in its shipping container to prevent accidental damage. When you are ready to install the router, proceed with unpacking it.
The router, accessory kit, publications, and any optional equipment you ordered may be shipped in more than one container. When you unpack the containers, check the packing list to ensure that you received all of the items on the list.
Installing the Router in a Rack
The Cisco 2010 CGR can only be mounted in a rack.
Caution 
To prevent damage to the chassis, never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis by holding it by the plastic panel on the front. Always hold the chassis by the sides of the metal body.
Note
Allow at least one rack unit of vertical space above the router.
Rack-Mounting the Chassis
Cisco 2010 CGR can be installed in 19-inch (48.26-cm) standard rack.
You can mount the router in the following ways:
•
Power supply side mounting—Brackets attached at the power supply side of the chassis with the power supply side facing forward.
•
Cable side mounting—Brackets attached at the cable side of the chassis with the cable side facing forward.
Figure 3-2 shows the rack-mount brackets used with the Cisco 2010 CGR.
Figure 3-1 Rack-Mount Brackets for the Cisco 2010 CGR
Attaching Rack-Mount Brackets to Cisco 2010 CGR Routers
For the Cisco 2010 CGR routers, use four of the supplied number-8 Phillips flat-head screws to attach the long side of each bracket to the router.
Figure 3-2 shows how to attach the brackets to the sides of the router with the power supply side forward.
Figure 3-2 Bracket Installation for Power Supply Side Mounting
Figure 3-3 shows how to attach the brackets to the sides of the router with the cable side forward.
Figure 3-3 Bracket Installation for Cable Side Mounting
Caution 
Do not over torque the screws. The recommended torque is 15 to 18 inch-lb (1.7 to 2.0 N-m).
Attach the second bracket to the opposite side of the chassis. Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to install the number-8 bracket screws.
Caution 
Your chassis installation must allow unrestricted airflow for chassis cooling.
Mounting the Router in a Rack
After you attach the rack-mount brackets to the router chassis, use the screws provided with the rack to install the chassis in the rack. (See Figure 3-4.)
Tip
The screw slots in the brackets are spaced to line up with every second pair of screw holes in the rack. When the correct screw holes are used, the small threaded holes in the brackets line up with unused screw holes in the rack. If the small holes do not line up with the rack holes, you must raise or lower the brackets to the next rack hole.
Caution 
A space of 1 RU above each Cisco 2010 CGR is required for sufficient air ventilation.
Figure 3-4 shows a typical installation in a rack.
Figure 3-4 Mounting the Chassis in a Rack (Typical)
Connecting Power
This section explains how to connect AC or DC power to Cisco 2010 CGR.
Warning
Read the installation instructions before connecting the system to the power source. Statement 1004
Connecting Power
To connect a power supply, follow these steps:
Step 1
Verify that power is off to the circuit on the power supply that you are removing. As an added precaution, place the appropriate safety flag and lockout devices at the source power circuit breaker, or place a piece of adhesive tape over the circuit breaker handle to prevent accidental power restoration while you are working on the circuit.
Step 2
Slide the cable input wires into the terminal holes marked below. See Figure 3-5.
a.
Place the black or brown lead of the cable into the terminal marked L.
b.
Place the white or blue lead of the cable into the terminal marked N. This terminal is immediately adjacent to the above L terminal.
c.
Place the green or green/yellow lead of the cable into the terminal marked with the ground symbol. Figure 1-3 shows the ground symbol.
d.
Use a tie wrap to secure the cable to the strain relief mechanissm that are next to the terminal block on the chassis. Secure the cable immediately adjacent to the terminal block to minimize strain on the cable.
Note
The strain relief mechanism are three metal loops built into the chassis next to the terminal block.
e.
Use minimum 14 AWG or maximum 12 AWG copper wire to connect the router to a 15 A branch circuit in accordance with local electrical code requirements. Verify that the voltage at the router is within the rated operating voltage range of the product.
Caution 
Ensure that all strands of a stranded wire are properly captured into the terminal block. A loose strand could possibly short the chassis and result in a hazard.
Warning
When installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last. Statement 1046
Figure 3-5 Connecting Power Using the Terminal Block
Step 3
Fully insert the un-insulated lead in to the terminal block and screw each captive screw on the terminal block tight to ensure proper connection.
Step 4
Use a tie wrap to secure the cable to the strain relief mechanism that is new to the terminal block on the chassis. Secure the cable immediately adjacent to the terminal block to minimize strain on the cable. See Figure 3-6.
Figure 3-6 Using Tie Wraps with Strain Relief Mechanism

Caution 
The AWG size of the wires feeding power to the input terminal block is a minimum of 14 AWG (2.0 mm
2) or a maximum of 12 AWG (3.309 mm
2), all for a 15 Amp branch circuit. 12 AWG is the largest wire that the terminal block will accept.
Caution 
Do not overtorque the terminal block contact screws. Recommended torque is 8.0
± 0.5 in-lb (0.9
± 0.05 N-m).
Caution 
Strain on the cable could dislodge the leads from the terminal block.
Caution 
Do not use a power cable to connect the chassis low voltage DC input to a voltage source. If you inadvertently plug a cable into a 120 Vac source, the low voltage supply will be damaged and hazard could result.
If you need a cable to connect to the low voltage DC power supply, cut off the plug from the power cord and hard wire the Cisco 2010 CGR low voltage DC input directly to its power source, observing the correct polarity markings.
Caution 
Stay clear of the terminal block when energy has been restored. The terminal block screw heads and any exposed wiring could have hazardous line voltages (depending on the voltage source). The Cisco 2010 CGR is intended to be installed in a restricted access location and serviced by trained personnel only.
Shutting Off Power
Even though shutting off power to the Cisco 2010 CGR is anticipated to be infrequent, there may be occasion to turn off the router. There is no on/off switch on the Cisco 2010 CGR. This ensures that there will not be any accidental shutdown due to turning off a power switch; thus, guaranteeing a high reliability in keeping the router up. To shut off power to the router, there are two options:
•
Pull the power supply modules out of the Cisco 2010 CGR router.
The power supplies on the Cisco 2010 CGR router are hot swappable, so merely removing them from the router will remove power from the router and shut it down.
•
Install a disconnect device for the Cisco 2010 CGR router.
A disconnect device must be located in the proximity of the Cisco 2010 CGR router and must be readily accessible. The disconnect device must also comply with IEC 60947-1 and IEC 60947-3 or an equivalent approved disconnect device appropriate for the country of installation and be identified as the disconnect device for this equipment.
Note
The maximum current rating for the power disconnect circuit breaker or overcurrent device must be 15 Amps. Operational power must be internally fused. This fuse cannot be replaced by the user. In the event of the disconnect device failing, return the unit to the factory for repair.
Connecting to a Console Terminal or Modem
The router has asynchronous serial ports and auxiliary ports. These ports provide administrative access to the router either locally (with a console terminal or a PC) or remotely (with a modem). To configure the router through the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI), you must establish a connection between the router console port and either a terminal or a PC.
Table 3-1 shows cables and adapters to establish a local or remote connection.
Connecting to the Serial Port with Microsoft Windows
This section describes using Microsoft Windows to connect to the serial port.
Note
Install the USB device driver before establishing a physical connection between the router and the PC using the USB Console cable plugged into the USB serial port, otherwise the connection will fail. See the "Installing the Cisco Microsoft Windows USB Device Driver" section.
Step 1
Connect the end of the console cable with the RJ-45 connector to the light blue console port on the router.
