DC Power System Input Requirements for Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers
The DC power supply for the Cisco ASR 1006, ASR 1004, and ASR 1002 routers operate at
specifications. shows the common input ranges and circuit breaker requirements.
Note All Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router AC power supplies require a 20 AMP circuit breaker.
AC and DC Power Supply Types
The AC and DC power supplies for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers support different types of power
supply switches. Table 2-8 defines which power supplies the Cisco ASR 1000 Series routers support (a
Standby or an On/Off switch).
AC and DC System Power Ratings
Table 2-9 lists AC and DC power supply system rating requirements for all Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Routers.

Cisco ASR 1004 24 30 40 10 8
Cisco ASR 1002 16 20 30 12 10
For example, the Cisco ASR 1002 Router DC power supply, with 16 Amp input rating must use an AWG #12 gauge wire for a 20Amp circuit breaker and
an AWG #10 gauge wire for a 30Amp circuit breaker.
