Power Requirements for MX10003 Components
Table 26 on page 71 lists the power requirements for various hardware components when the router is
operating under typical and maximum voltage conditions.

Calculating Power Consumption for Your Configuration
These examples use generalized values per MIC. For exact MIC power requirements, see the MX Series
Interface Module Reference.
The following calculations show the typical power consumption (at 25° C) for modular routers :
•
Fully loaded AC-powered router with four fan modules, two MPCs, two JNP-MIC1 MICs, and two RCBs
:
Router (idle at 25° C, with QSFP28 optics) with 4 fans (running at normal speed) + 2 MPC + 2 MIC + 2 RCBs=
80 W + 1320 W + 160 W + 116 W = 1676 W
Output power in watts / power supply efficiency @90% = power consumption in watts
1676 W / 0.9 = 1862 W
•
Fully loaded AC-powered router with four fan modules, two MPCs, two JNP-MIC1-MACSEC MICs, and
two RCBs:
Router (idle at 25° C, with QSFP28 optics) with 4 fans (running at normal speed) + 2 MPC + 2 MIC + 2 RCBs=
90 W + 1320 W + 220 W + 116 W = 1736 W
