CHAPTER 6
Cabling E-Series Routers

Required Tools, Wires, and Cables
Cabling your system should take only a few minutes. You will need the
items listed below and in
for proper installation.
•
1/8" flathead screwdriver
•
3/8" wrench or 3/8" nut-driver
•
No. 2 Phillips screwdriver
•
Ground wires – We recommend a minimum of 10-AWG ground wire.
•
#10 (ERX-7xx/14xx models) or #8 (ERX-310 router) kep nut to
connect the ground (earth) wire to the ground terminal.
•
Power input module wiring – We recommend a minimum of 10-AWG
(ERX-7xx/14xx model) or 14-AWG (ERX-310 router DC model) wire
with a dual stud terminal lug with 3/8" spacing. For the ERX-310
router AC model, use a standard IEC power cord.
Note: If you plan on using a cable-management bracket (ERX-7xx/14xx models
only), install it before you begin cabling your E-series router. Cable-management
brackets are helpful to keep network interface cables untangled and orderly and to
prevent cables from hindering access to other slots. See
Cable-Management Bracket on ERX-7xx Models
