Chapter 5 Cisco ASR 1004 Router Overview and Installation

Connecting Power to Cisco ASR 1004 Router

This section provides the procedures for connecting AC-input and DC-input power to your

Cisco ASR 1004 Router.

The DC power supply for the Cisco ASR 1006, ASR 1004, and ASR 1002 routers operate at individual specifications. Table 5-2shows the common input ranges and circuit breaker requirements.

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.

Note All Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router AC power supplies require a 20 AMP circuit breaker.

Note Detailed instructions for removing and replacing the Cisco ASR1000 Series AC and DC power supplies are in Chapter 8, “Replacing Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Field-Replaceable Units.”.

Connecting AC-Input Power to Cisco ASR 1004 Router

Follow these steps to connect an AC-input power supply to the Cisco 1004 chassis:

Step 1 Insert an AC power supply in power supply slot 0 or power supply slot 1 until it is fully seated.

Step 2 Tighten the captive screws.

Step 3 Insert the AC power cable into the power inlet.

Step 4 Plug the power supply cable into the power source.

Note For additional AC power cable strain relief, secure the cable to the power supply handle by inserting a nylon cable tie through the hole in the handle and around the cable.
