Power Connections The following warning applies to the Cisco 3825 router only: Warning This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the protective device is rated not greater than: 60 VDC, 20 A. Statement 1005 The following warning applies to the Cisco 3845 router only: Warning This product relies on the building's installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that the protective device is rated not greater than: 60 VDC, 30 A. Statement 1005 Table 2 and Table 3 summarize DC wiring requirements for Cisco 3825 and Cisco 3845 routers. For a Cisco 3845 router, the safety ground wire connection must be at the same potential as the 0 V (return) connection.
