Alarm Card Alarm Relay Connector Specifications

interface is rated at max 2A, 60V, or 50VA, whichever is greater. The connector

Router Performance Upgrades and Model Identification
The compliance information label on the side of the chassis also identifies the
Cisco 12000 Series Router by its model number. The model number indicates the
router is in the Cisco 12000 Series, the maximum switching capacity the router
supports, and the number of line card and RP slots in the chassis.
For example, the Cisco 12006 Router features 30 Gbps switching capacity in a
6-slot, 2.5-Gigabit per slot chassis, whereas the Cisco 12406 Router features
120 Gbps switching capacity in a 6-slot, 10-Gigabit per slot chassis. Table A-6
lists the Cisco 12006 and Cisco 12406 Routers and provides model comparison
information based on chassis slot counts, maximum switching capacity, and
switch fabric type.
