Cisco Connection Online, page 19 Product Overview The Cisco 12012 has two card cages; the upper card cage and the lower card cage. (Refer to Figure 1.) The upper card cage has 12 user-configurable slots available for line cards and a route processor (RP).
Page 2
The lower card cage, located behind the air filter, has five horizontal slots for switch fabric cards. The Cisco 12012 supports up to two DC-input power supplies in a power supply bay located below the lower card cage. (Refer to Figure 1.) The power supply bay is divided into four positions designated A1, A2, B1, and B2 (from left to right).

DC power cable bracket Electrical and control line connections between the power supply and the Cisco 12012 backplane are made through a connector located at the back of the power supply. A three-lead terminal block mounted on the power supply faceplate provides connection points for an external circuit breaker alarm circuit.
