Step 6

Tighten the grounding lug screws using the flat-blade screwdriver. Do not overtighten the screws.

Step 7 Connect the opposite end of the grounding wire to the appropriate grounding point at your site to ensure

adequate chassis ground.

This completes the procedure for attaching a ground connection.

Attaching the Cable-Management Bracket

To install the cable-management bracket on the router, complete the following steps:

Step 1 Locate the chassis grounding receptacles on the rear sides of the chassis. Both rear sides of Cisco 7100

series chassis have two grounding receptacles. (See Figure 3-8.)

Step 2 Attach the cable-management bracket to the two grounding receptacles that were not used to ground the

chassis in the “Attaching a System Ground Connection” section on page 3-4.

Step 3 Align the cable-management bracket to the vacant receptacles. Ensure the two flanges on the bracket are

facing away from the chassis.

Step 4 Thread two M3.5 x 7-mm slotted hexhead screws through the bracket and into the chassis.

Step 5 Tighten the screws using a flat-head screwdriver.

Step 6 Secure any interface cables to the bracket flanges, using tie wraps.
