Connecting the Router to Backup Power

If your router uses the Cisco Redundant Power System (RPS), see the Cisco RPS-675 Hardware Installation Guide for instructions about the power connections. To locate this document, see the “Where to Go Next” section on page 36.

Caution Before connecting the RPS to the router, make sure that either the RPS is in standby mode or the RPS AC power is disconnected. Connecting the RPS to AC power automatically places the RPS in active mode.

Note The RPS is not supported on Cisco 2801 routers.
