Core Product Positioning
The Cisco ISR4300-PWR-DC is a hot-swappable DC power supply module designed for Cisco ISR 4331 and ISR 4351 Integrated Services Routers. It converts standard telecom -48 VDC input into stable regulated DC power to feed router mainboard, routing processors, NIM/SM interface modules and internal cooling subsystems. Optimized for carrier, colocation and remote branch sites deployed with traditional telecom DC power infrastructure. This DC variantdoes not support PoE power deliveryfor powered endpoints. It supports single power operation or dual redundant deployment to improve network uptime for mission-critical WAN connectivity.
2. Hardware Compatibility
Supported Router Platforms
Cisco ISR4331-DC/K9, ISR4351-DC/K9
Supported IOS Software
Cisco IOS XE for ISR 4000 Series ISR
Unsupported Platforms
ISR4321 (no factory DC chassis option), ISR4400 series, ISR 4200, Catalyst switches, ASR routers
Important Restriction: DC power configuration cannot support onboard PoE function. PoE modules are prohibited when DC power supplies are installed.
