  • Page 16: Redundancy

    Cisco ASR 903 Router supports current sharing between the power supplies. If you install a redundant power supply on the Cisco ASR 903 Router, we recommend that you connect each power supply to a separate input power source in order to ensure that the router maintains power in the event of a power interruption caused by an electrical failure, a wiring fault, or a tripped circuit breaker.

  • Page 17: Ac Power Specifications

    600 W Fan Tray The Cisco ASR 903 Router uses a modular fan tray that is separate from the power supply. The fan tray contains twelve fans and provides sufficient capacity to maintain operation indefinitely in the event of an individual fan failure.

  • Page 18: Rsp Modules

    5-7. RSP Modules The Cisco ASR 903 Router is designed to use up to two RSP modules to handle the data plane, network timing, and control plane functionalities for the router. The RSP configuration allows you to use Cisco IOS software to control chassis management, redundancy, external management, and system status indications on the router.

  • Page 19: Supported Rsps

    • RSP Redundancy The Cisco ASR 903 Router chassis includes two RSP slots to allow for redundant RSPs. When the router uses redundant RSPs, one RSP operates in the active mode and the other operates in the hot standby mode. Removal or failure of the active RSP results in an automatic switchover to the standby RSP.
