Connecting the Power Supply

The power supply on the Cisco 828 router and the SOHO 78 router has a light gray connector and provides dying gasp functionality. The dying gasp feature sends an alert to the router if the box shuts down. For example if there is a power problem at the remote site, the router sends a message to the DLSAM indicated that the router is going to be powered off.

To connect the power supply, follow the steps in Figure 2-5.
