Cisco 7507 Overview
Cisco 7507 Overview
The Cisco 7507 supports multiprotocol, multimedia routing and bridging with a wide variety of
protocols and any combination of available electrical interfaces and media.
Network interfaces reside on interface processors that provide a direct connection between the two
CyBuses in the Cisco 7507 and your external networks. The Cisco 7507 has seven slots: interface
processor slots 0 and 1, Route Switch Processor (RSP2, RSP4/4+, RSP8, or RSP16) slots 2 and 3, and
interface processor slots 4 through 6. The Cisco 7507 supports 5 VIPs, one for each interface processor
slot.
There are bays for up to two AC-input or DC-input power supplies. The chassis will operate with one
power supply. Although a second power supply is not required, it allows load sharing and increased
system availability.
Caution
Because of agency compliance and safety issues, mixing AC-input and DC-input power supplies in
the same Cisco 7507 is not a supported configuration and should not be attempted. Doing so might
cause damage.
The Cisco 7507 front panel, shown in
Figure 1-4
, contains three status indicators and two removable
panels for access to the internal components. The three light emitting diodes (LEDs) on the front panel
indicate normal system operation and the currently active power supplies. On the back of the router, a
normal LED on the RSP and LEDs on the power supplies indicate the same status.
