Connecting to an AC Power Source
This section provides the procedure for connecting your router to an AC power 
source. A power factor corrector (PFC) allows the AC-input power supply to 
accept AC power source voltage from an AC power source operating between 
100-120 VAC, 15-Amp service in North America; and a range of 185-264 VAC, 
10-Amp service in an international environment.
Caution
The AC PEM weighs 14.0 pounds (6.35 kg.). Use two hands when handling a 
PEM.
Step 1
Attach an ESD-preventive strap to yourself and to either the chassis, or to a bare 
metal surface.
Step 2
Using two hands to support and guide the PEM, slide it into the PEM bay. Push 
the PEM all the way into the bay until the PEM connector engages the backplane 
connector.
