Connecting the Router to Backup Power
The Cisco 3845 router operates in redundant mode when two power supplies are installed. The Cisco 3825 router has one
internal power supply and a connector for mating to an external backup power source.
To connect the Cisco 3825 router to the external Cisco Redundant Power System (RPS), remove the RPS connector cover from
the bezel and connect the RPS cable. (See Figure 20 and Figure 21.)
See the Cisco RPS-675 Hardware Installation Guide for more information about RPS power connections. To locate this
documents, see the "Where to Go Next" section on page 34.
