Juniper MX5 Hardware Guide

Table 15 on page 36 and Table 16 on page 36 list the power requirements for base
AC-powered routers operating under typical voltage conditions.
If you do not plan to provision 6 A @ 110 VAC (660 W) or 3 A @ 220 VAC (660 W) for
each input, you can use the information in Table 15 on page 36, Table 16 on page 36, and
Table 17 on page 36 to calculate the power consumption and thermal output for your
hardware configuration.
