AC Power Cabling
Either Cisco Systems or the customer can provide the AC power cord. See Table B-12 for the power
cords that Cisco can supply. In addition, you can special-order AC cables with other plugs or different
lengths. If you want to construct the power cord, it must mate with an IEC320 (C-14) 10/15A male
receptacle on the back of the AC power module.
