Upgrade Kit With Power Adapter Plate for Routers and
Concentrators
To operate an external device with the Cisco RPS, the device must have an RPS connector.
Cisco 2500, 2600, 3600 and 4000 series routers and the Cisco MC3810 multiservice
concentrator do not automatically ship with an RPS connector.
Note
The FastHub 100 series, FastHub 200 series, and FastHub 300 series 100BaseT
hubs, HP 10BaseT Hub-16M, Catalyst 1900 and Catalyst 2820 series switches, and
Catalyst 2900 series XL switches come with an RPS connector and do not require a power
adapter plate.
If you did not specify that you wanted the RPS connector installed on your router or
concentrator when you ordered it, you must order a power adapter plate that provides this
compatibility with the Cisco RPS and install the plate in place of your existing power
supply.
If you need to order a power adapter plate for your router or concentrator, see Table 3-2,
which lists adapter plates and corresponding product order numbers. Contact
Cisco Customer Service at 800 553-6387 or 408 526-7209 for ordering information. (See
also the section “Cisco Connection Online” in the “About This Guide” preface.)
