Most sites distribute power through a main conduit that leads to frame-mounted power distribution
panels, one of which can be located at the top of the rack that houses the router. An AC power cord
connects each power supply to the power distribution panel.
NOTE: In North America, AC power cords must not exceed 15 feet (approximately 4.5 meters) in
length, to comply with National Electrical Code (NEC) Sections 400-8 (NFPA 75, 5-2.2) and
210-52 and with Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) Section 4-010(3). The cords shipped with the
router to North America and Canada are in compliance.
The MX10004 AC, high-voltage alternating current (HVAC), and high-voltage direct current (HVDC)
power supplies have specific cord requirements. Use the following sections to determine the cable
requirements based on the model of your power supply and any mode settings:
• For JNP10K-PWR-AC2 with 20-A input, see
