Power Connections Chapter 3 Installing the Router DC Wiring Requirements for Cisco 3745 Routers A Cisco 3745 router with a DC-input power supply requires copper wire for the power connections. Table 3-2 summarizes the wiring requirements. Note Two types of DC input power supply can be installed in a Cisco 3745 router: power supplies rated at 24/48 VDC nominal input, and power supplies rated at 48 VDC nominal input. Table 3-2 summarizes the wiring requirement for both power supplies.

DC Wiring Requirements for Cisco 3745 Routers
A Cisco 3745 router with a DC-input power supply requires copper wire for the power connections.
Table 3-2
summarizes the wiring requirements.
Note
Two types of DC input power supply can be installed in a Cisco 3745 router: power supplies rated at
24/48 VDC nominal input, and power supplies rated at 48 VDC nominal input.
Table 3-2
summarizes
the wiring requirement for both power supplies.
Wiring Procedure for DC Input
To connect the router to a DC power source, perform the following steps:
Step 1
Remove power from the DC circuit. To ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit, locate the
circuit breaker for the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the
circuit-breaker switch in the OFF position.
Tip
Secure all power cabling when installing this unit to avoid disturbing field-wiring connections.
Step 2
Strip the wires to the appropriate length for the terminals. The strip length is 1/8 to 3/16 inch (3 to 5 mm)
for Molex number 19073-0009 terminals and for AMP/Tyco number 52961 terminals.
Step 3
Crimp the terminals onto the DC power input wires.
