AC Powered Routers
AC power modules operate in the input range of 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz and require a minimum
service of:
• 15 A for operation in North America and Japan
• 10 A for international operation
• 13 A for operation in the UK
Each of the AC power inputs requires a separate dedicated branch circuit. For a list of the nominal and
acceptable value ranges for source AC power, see
The following table lists the AC-input power cord options, specifications, and Cisco product numbers for the
AC-input power supply modules. This table also references power cord illustrations. For more information
on Cisco product numbers (PIDs) and their detailed description of power cords, refer to Dynamic Configuration
