Site Planning
This space ensures that you can remove the Cisco ASR 920 Series Router components and perform

The front and rear of the chassis must remain unobstructed to ensure adequate airflow and prevent
overheating inside the chassis.
To avoid problems during installation and ongoing operations, follow these general precautions when

Locating for Proper Airflow
Ensure that the Cisco ASR 920 Series Router location has enough airflow to keep the system operating
within the environmental characteristics and the air temperature is sufficient to compensate for the heat
dissipated by the system. For more information, see the

Use the show environment all command regularly to check the internal system status. The
environmental monitor continually checks the interior chassis environment; it provides warnings
about high temperature and creates reports on other potentially dangerous occurrences. If warning
messages are displayed, take immediate action to identify the cause, and correct the problem.
Keep the Cisco ASR 920 Series Router off the floor and out of areas that collect dust.
Follow ESD-prevention procedures to avoid damage to equipment. Damage from static discharge
can cause immediate or intermittent equipment failure.
