Power System Requirements and Specifications

The router can use either AC or DC power. In either case, there are two load-sharing power supplies located at the bottom rear of the chassis (see Figure 2). Each power supply requires a dedicated power source.

For information about the power supplies, including electrical specifications and a description of components, see AC Power Supply and DC Power Supply.
