The chassis power system provides power to chassis components and is made up of two AC or DC power
shelves that contain AC or DC power modules (PMs) and alarm modules.
The AC power system requires single-phase AC input power to the power shelves. If you have 3-phase AC
Delta or AC Wye at your equipment, a Cisco CRS power distribution unit (PDU) will be required to convert
3-phase AC input power to single-phase AC input power for the power shelf. The power system also includes
