Installing the Power Supply Installing the Power Supply The Cisco ASR 920 Router router provides the choice of two different power supplies: • DC power—The DC power supply uses 2-position terminal block-style connector with positive latching/securing and labeled connections for +24/48V, GRD, -24/48V. The terminal block connector is of suitable size to carry the appropriate AWG wire size to handle the input current of the power supply.
• In some systems, you can use an UPS to protect against power failures at your site. Avoid UPS types that use ferroresonant technology. These UPS types can become unstable with systems such as the Cisco ASR 920 Series Router, which can have substantial current-draw fluctuations due to bursty data traffic patterns.
Installing the Cisco ASR 920 Series Router Installing the DC Power Supply Module Use the information in the Cisco ASR-920-12SZ-IM Router Specifications table to estimate the power requirements and heat dissipation of the router based on a given configuration of the router. Determining power requirements is useful for planning the power distribution system needed to support the router.
