2Installation precautionsCAUTIONEnsure that the router does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection.To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of alldevices installed on the same circuit as the router. Compare this total with the rating limit for thecircuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the routers near the input powerconnectors.CAUTIONBrocade MLXe routers with DC power sources are intended for installation in restricted accessareas only. A restricted access area is where access can be gained only by service personnelthrough the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by theauthority responsible for the location.CAUTIONBrocade MLXe routers with AC power sources are intended for installation in restricted accessareas only.
