refer to Chapter 7, “Hardware Specifications”.

• 8-slot router: Can accommodate up to four 1200W or 1800W AC and DC power supplies. Because power is supplied over a

common power bus, any power supply installed in addition to the minimum required provides backup for any supply that fails.

For power redundancy, you must purchase additional power supplies depending on how you populate your router. For

determining the number of power supplies required for redundancy, refer to Chapter 7, “Hardware Specifications”.

• 16-slot router: Can accommodate eight 1200W or 1800W AC and DC power supplies. Because power is supplied over a
