Note In systems with redundant power supplies, both power supplies must be of the same wattage. The
Cisco 7600 series routers allow you to mix AC-input and DC-input power supplies in the same chassis.
For detailed information on supported power supply configurations, refer to the Cisco 7609 Router
Installation Guide and Cisco 7603 Router Installation Guide .
The modules have different power requirements, and certain configurations require more power than a
single power supply can provide. Although the power management feature allows you to power all
installed modules with two power supplies, redundancy is not supported in this configuration. Redundant
and nonredundant power configurations are discussed in the following sections.
