Power Requirements
Additional cards and components provide power and link interfaces to the WMIC. The exact
configuration of your router will vary, depending on how it was configured by the vendor.
The WMIC draws power from the PCI and the ISA connectors. Table 4-9 shows the estimated power
consumption. Note that these are theoretical maximum wattages.
