Chapter 2 Preparing for Router Installation
Required Tools and Equipment for Installation and Maintenance
You need the following tools and equipment to install and upgrade the router and its components:
• ESD-preventive cord and wrist strap
• Number 2 Phillips screwdriver
• Phillips screwdrivers: small, 3/16-in. (4 to 5 mm) and medium, 1/4-in. (6 to 7 mm)
–
To install or remove modules
–
To remove the cover, if you are upgrading memory or other components
• Screws that fit your rack
• Wire crimper
• Wire for connecting the chassis to an earth ground:
–
AWG 6 (13 mm
2
) wire for NEBS-compliant chassis grounding
–
AWG 14 (2 mm
2
) or larger wire for NEC-compliant chassis grounding
–
AWG 18 (1 mm
2
) or larger wire for EN/IEC 60950-compliant chassis grounding
• For NEC-compliant grounding, an appropriate user-supplied ring terminal, with an inner diameter
of 1/4 in. (5 to 7 mm)
In addition, depending on the type of modules you plan to use, you might need the following equipment
to connect a port to an external network:
• Cables for connection to the WAN and LAN ports (dependent on configuration)
Note For more information on cable specifications, see the Cisco Modular Access Router Cable
Specifications document at Cisco.com.
• Ethernet hub or PC with a network interface card for connection to an Ethernet (LAN) port.
• Console terminal (an ASCII terminal or a PC running HyperTerminal or similar terminal emulation
software) configured for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no flow control, and no parity.
• Modem for connection to the auxiliary port for remote administrative access (optional).
• Data service unit (DSU) or channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU) as appropriate for
serial interfaces.
• External CSU for any CT1/PRI modules without a built-in CSU.
