Site Planning
Note All Cisco ASR 1000 Series Router AC power supplies require a 20 A circuit breaker.
The AC and DC power supplies for the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers support different types of power
supply switches.
Table 5-6 lists AC and DC power supply system rating requirements for all Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Routers.
Site Cabling Guidelines
This section contains guidelines for wiring and cabling at your site. When preparing your site for
network connections to the Cisco 1000 Series Router, consider the type of cable required for each
component, and the cable limitations. Consider the distance limitations for signaling, EMI, and
connector compatibility. Possible cable types are fiber, thick or thin coaxial, foil twisted-pair, or
unshielded twisted-pair cabling.
Also consider any additional interface equipment you need, such as transceivers, hubs, switches, channel
service units (CSUs), or data service units (DSUs).
Before you begin, read these important notes about cabling:
• The E1 interface on the Cisco 8-Port Channelized T1/E1 SPA interface uses RJ-48c receptacles for
E1 (120-Ohm) cables with RJ-45 connectors. You can use all ports simultaneously. Each E1
connection supports interfaces that meet the G.703 standards. The RJ-45 connection does not
require an external transceiver. The E1 ports are E1 interfaces that use 120-ohm shielded
twisted-pair (STP) cables.

Minimum Maximum Minimum Maximum
Cisco ASR 1006 40 Always 50 Always AWG #6 wire
Cisco ASR 1004 24 30 40 10 8
Cisco ASR 1002 16 20 30 12 10
Cisco ASR 1013 40 Always 50 Always AWG #6 wire
Cisco ASR 1001 14 20 30 10 10
For example, the Cisco ASR 1002 Router DC power supply, with 16 Amp input rating must use an AWG #12 gauge wire for a 20 A circuit breaker and
an AWG #10 gauge wire for a 30 A circuit breaker.
