For information about the Cisco 7206 as a router shelf in a Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server, refer to the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server documentation listed in the Preface, "Related Documentation" section on page xiv. The Cisco 7206 is part of the Cisco 7200 series routers, which consists of the 2-slot Cisco 7202, 4-slot Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7204VXR, and 6-slot Cisco 7206 and Cisco 7206VXR. The Cisco 7206 supports multiprotocol, multimedia routing and bridging over a wide variety of LAN and WAN interface types. Network interfaces reside on port adapters that provide the connection between the router's three Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) buses and external networks. The Cisco 7206 has six slots (slot 1 through slot 6) for the port adapters, one slot for an input/output (I/O) controller, and one slot for a network processing engine. You can place the port adapters in any of the six available slots. There are bays for up to two AC-input or DC-input power supplies. The Cisco 7206 will operate with one power supply. While a second power supply is not required, it allows load sharing and increased system availability. Note The Cisco 7206 does not support a mixture of AC- and DC-input power.
