Connecting to an AC Power Source

This section presents the procedure for connecting your router to an AC power source. A power factor corrector (PFC) allows the AC-input power supply to accept AC power source voltage from an AC power source operating between 100 and 240 VAC, 20-Amp service in North America; and a range of from 185 to 264 VAC, 16-Amp service in an international environment.
