This document contains instructions for installing the Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 in an equipment
rack using the rack-mount kit, and for installing the cable management brackets on the Cisco 7010
and Cisco 7505.

Note When referring to both the Cisco 7505 and Cisco 7010 chassis, the term the chassis will be

used.

The rack-mount kit provides hardware for mounting the chassis in most standard 19-inch or
Telco-type equipment racks. The cable management kit provides two brackets for routing and
securing network interface cables at the interface processor end of the chassis.

Both kits are included with their respective chassis, and each kit is available as a spare part.

Product Overview

Product Overview

The Cisco 7010 isthefive-slotmodel in the Cisco 7000 series product line and the Cisco 7505 is the
five-slot model in the Cisco 7500 series. Figure 1 shows the interface processor end of the Cisco
7010 chassis.

Note Forthe procedures in this publication, the Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505chassis arefunctionally

the same.

The interface processor end of the chassis contains the processor slots, the AC power receptacle (a
DC-input power supply is available,but not shown), the power switch, the DC OK status LED, and
a screw for a chassis ground connection. The noninterface processor end of the chassis is a
removable panel (secured with two captive slotted screws) that provides access to the internal
components. For a complete description of the chassis, refer to the Cisco 7010 Hardware
Installation and Maintenance or Cisco 7505 Hardware Installation and Maintenance publications.

Power supply

You can mount the chassis in most standard 19-inch or Telco-type equipment racks, with either end
of the chassis at the front of the rack. Ideally, you should be able to access both ends of the router
without having to remove it from the rack. Because the interface processor end provides access to
the power switch, processor slots, and all status LEDs, we recommend that you mount the router
with the interface processor end at the front, or most accessible side, of the rack.

The rack-mount kit comprises two chassis ears that attach to the sides of the chassis at either the
interfaceprocessor ornoninterface processorend, fourfasteners to secure the ears tothe chassis,and
eight fasteners to secure the ears to the mounting strips or posts on the equipment rack.

Safety Guidelines

Prerequisites

The cable management kit includes two brackets and fasteners to secure the brackets to the inner
sides of the interface processor end of the chassis. By routing cables through the brackets and away
from the interface ports, you can keep cables sorted and organized, provide strain relief for heavy or
lengthy cables, and maintain clear access to interface processors and ports in the lower slots.

Before installing the rack-mounting hardware or the cable management brackets, read the safety
guidelines and prerequisites in the following section, “Prerequisites.”

The following sections provide safety guidelines that you should follow to avoid injuring yourself
or damaging the equipment, a list of the tools and parts you need, and guidelines for rack-mounted
equipment that will help you to avoid overtemperature conditions and maintain trouble-free
operation.

Review the following guidelines to help ensure your safety and protect the equipment against
damage during the installation.

Working with Electrical Equipment

When working with any electrical equipment, the following guidelines will help to ensure your
safety and protect the equipment. This list is not inclusiveof all potentially hazardous situations, so
be alert.

• Never try to lift an object that is too heavy for you to lift safely by yourself.

• Keep tools and chassis components away from walk areas.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.

• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry (including rings and chains), or other items that could get

caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and sleeves.

• Never install equipment that appears damaged.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before moving the chassis.

• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment

unsafe.

• Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power

extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

In addition, use the guidelines that follow when working with any equipment that is connected to
telephone wiring or other network cabling.

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet

locations.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been

disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Prerequisites

Lifting Safely

Whenever you lift the chassis or any heavy object, follow these guidelines:

• A fully configured chassis weighs approximately 70 pounds. Whenever possible, avoid lifting

• Ensure that your footing is solid and balance the weight of the object between your feet.

• Lift the chassis slowly; never move suddenly or twist your body as you lift.

• Keep your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back. If you must bend down to lift the

• Lift the chassis from the bottom; grasp the underside of the chassis exterior with both hands.

• Neverattempt to lift or tilt the chassis with the handles on the interface processor carriers or with

chassis, bend at the knees, not at the waist, to reduce the strain on your lower back muscles.

the cable management brackets. Neither the handles nor the brackets are designed to support the
weight of the chassis.

You need the following tools and parts to rack-mount the chassis:

• Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers

• 1/4-inch and 3/16-inch, flat-blade screwdrivers

• Tape measure

• Level (optional)

• One rack-mount kit, which is included with the chassis and includes the following parts:

— Two chassis ears
— Four M4 x 10-mm Phillips flathead screws to secure the ears to the chassis
— Eight 10-32 x 3/8-inch, slotted binderhead screws to secure the chassis ears to the rack rails

You need the following tools and parts to install the cable management brackets:

• Number 1 Phillips screwdriver

• One cable management kit, which is included with the chassis and includes the following parts:

— Two cable management brackets
— Six M3 x 8-mm Phillips panhead screws

Also, you might need another person to assist you with the installation. When installing the router
in an enclosed rack, removing the door temporarily may provide additional clearance. We
recommend that you have someone to assist you by supporting the chassis while you mount it in the
rack by securing the chassis ears to the mounting strips on the rack posts.

Equipment Racks Considerations

The rack-mounting hardware included with the router is suitable for most 19-inch equipment racks
or Telco-type racks. The chassis mounts to two posts or rails in the rack with two mounting ears,
which attach to the sides of the chassis. Ideally, you should be able to access both ends of the router
without having to remove it from the rack.

Before using aparticular rack,check forobstructions (such as a powerstrip) thatcould impairaccess
to the interface processors or chassis cover panel. As an alternative, you can install an equipment
shelf in the rack, provided that the rack dimensions allow the router to be secured to the shelf and
the overall configuration permits safe installation and access.

Figure 2 shows the chassis footprint and outer dimensions and the additional clearance required to
removeor install components. All are representativeof both the Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 chassis.

Rack Dimensions

To use the rack-mounting hardware provided with the router, consider the following guidelines:

• To mount the chassis between two posts or rails using the mounting ears, the inner clearance (the

width between the inner sides of the two posts or rails) must be at least 17.72 inches (45 cm).

• The height of the chassis is 11 inches (27.94 cm) with the chassis feet attached, and 10.5 inches

(26.67 cm) when the chassis feet are removed.
