Architecture and Technology

This product note describes the hardware and software architecture of the
Router Series 200, 400, and 600. This note includes the features common to
each series; technical data specific to each router is found in the Release
Notes and Installation Guide for each series.
Series 200 and 400 Hardware
Some of the routers included in these series are the following:
Series 200
HP Router PR
HP Router FR
HP Router TFR
The router assembly consists of one or two printed circuit assemblies
(PCAs), one or two fans, and a power supply in an enclosure. The enclosure
of each of the routers is illustrated in the Release Notes for your router.
The PCAs, which use surface-mounted components, include the mother-
board, containing most of the hardware components, as described in the
architecture section below. Some of the routers contain a smaller daughter
PCA as well. The motherboards and the daughter boards each contain some
of the port line drivers and connectors. (Ports include LAN, WAN, and
console ports.)
The power supply assembly is an "auto-ranging" supply. It will automatically
detect and switch for alternating-current (ac) input voltages in one of two
ranges: 90–120 volts ac or 200–240 volts ac.
