AC-Powered Routers
AC power modules operate in the input range of 180VAC to 264VAC, 47 to 63 Hz (nominal input level
of 200 to 240 VAC). Refer to Table 1-3 and Table 1- 4 for the minimum required AC service for version
1 and version 2 power modules.
Power redundancy requirements vary based on the system configuration (number and type of line cards,
etc.). AC-powered systems are 2N protected. A minimum of two power supplies are required for
redundant operation. Refer to the Cisco ASR 9000 Power Calculator at the following URL to determine
actual redundancy requirements for any given configuration: http://tools.cisco.com/cpc/launch.jsp.
Each of the AC power inputs requires a separate dedicated branch circuit. Note that the circuit breaker
and fuse lockout procedures should follow the rules and regulations in the National Electrical Code
(NEC) and any local codes. For a list of the nominal and acceptable value ranges for source AC power,
see Tabl e A-5.
Table 1 -3 lists the AC input power cord options, specifications, and Cisco product numbers for the AC
input version 1 power supply modules. Table 1 -4 lists the AC input power cord options, specifications,
and Cisco product numbers for the AC input version 2 power supply modules.
Note Before connecting AC input power cords to the power system, make sure that the power cords are not
energized.
