Power Supply and Cooling System
The vEdge 100wm router has an built-in AC-to-DC power supply unit. This article describes the AC power
supply in the router and the cooling system and airflow through the router chassis.

AC Power Cord Specifications
The vEdge 100wm router ships with a detachable AC power cord. The power cord has a C5 female connector
at one end, and the other end is specific to the country/locality to which the product is shipped.
Cooling System in a vEdge 100wm Router
The cooling system in a vEdge 100wm router consists of internal heat sinks and an internal fan with adjustable
speed. The fan speed is algorithmically controlled, based on readings obtained from internal temperature
sensors. The internal temperature is affected by factors such as the external ambient temperature and the traffic
workload.
If the ambient temperature inside the chassis rises above the acceptable range, the router raises an alarm. If
the temperature inside the chassis rises above the maximum threshold temperature, the router shuts down
automatically.
