FCC Class A Compliance

Step 3 If the large cardboard box contains AC-input power supplies, perform the following steps to remove them from the packaging:

(a)Remove the two foam inserts covering the AC-input power supplies.

(b)Grasp the AC-input power supply handle and carefully lift the power supply out of the box. Set the power supply aside.

(c)Repeat Step a and Step b for a second AC-input power supply.

Step 4 Grasp the edges of the large cardboard box and pull the box out, away from the system, to release the two foam brackets positioned under the air filter tray. Remove the box from the pallet and set it aside.

The system is now ready for installation. Open the accessories box and locate the documentation package that accompanies the Cisco 12012 GSR. Follow the installation procedures in the Cisco 12012 Gigabit Switch Router Installation and Configuration Guide.

FCC Class A Compliance

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

•

•

•

Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

•Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Cisco 12012 specifications

The Cisco 12012 is a high-performance router designed primarily for service providers and large enterprises, playing a pivotal role in handling massive amounts of data traffic efficiently. This robust device is part of the Cisco 12000 Series, which is known for its scalability, reliability, and advanced features tailored for high-capacity internet backbone routing.

One of the standout features of the Cisco 12012 is its capacity to support multiple high-speed interfaces, allowing for flexible network design and expansion. The router is equipped with high-density line card slots that enable users to plug in various types of interfaces such as Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, and even newer technologies as they become available. This modularity means that organizations can tailor their network to meet specific needs without having to replace the entire router, thereby ensuring a longer lifespan and maximizing investment.

Another significant characteristic of the Cisco 12012 is its use of the Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS), which is known for its robustness and feature-rich capabilities. IOS supports advanced routing protocols such as OSPF, EIGRP, and BGP, allowing for intelligent routing and load balancing across varied network paths. This is crucial for service providers who must maintain high availability and performance for their customers.

The Cisco 12012 also incorporates cutting-edge technologies like Quality of Service (QoS) and IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack support. QoS ensures that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need, while less critical traffic can be deprioritized, optimizing overall network performance. Dual-stack support is essential as organizations transition to IPv6, ensuring compatibility with both addressing schemes.

Scalability is a core characteristic of the Cisco 12012, supporting a high throughput with a backplane capacity that can handle up to 400 Gbps. This extensive capability allows service providers to accommodate growing data demands without compromising speed or reliability.

In conclusion, the Cisco 12012 router is an exemplary choice for organizations looking to enhance their networking infrastructure. With its high-performance features, flexibility, and advanced technologies, the Cisco 12012 has established itself as a reliable solution for high-capacity, mission-critical environments in an ever-evolving digital landscape. As organizations continue to expand their network capabilities, the Cisco 12012 remains a strong candidate that meets both current and future networking needs.
