To verify that the new DC-input power supply is operating properly, proceed to the section
below entitled "Verifying the Installation of a DC-Input Power Supply."
Removing a DC-Input Power Supply
For the following procedure, it is assumed that you will be removing a DC-input power
supply from a Cisco 12008 router that is equipped with a single such unit. In this case, you
must power down the router before removing the power supply.
It is assumed further that the power supply to be removed is installed in the lower power

Locate and turn off the source DC circuit breaker that is servicing the DC-input
power supply.
Tape the circuit breaker handle in the OFF position as an added safety
precaution.
Remove the plastic safety shield (see Figure 7-7) that covers the alarm terminal
