Problem Description

The DC power entry modules (PEMs) on the Cisco 12016 and 12410 chassis do not meet the radiated emissions standard for Europe (EN55022 Class B).

Background

A change in the production process shortly after the initial release of the 12016 and 12410 DC PEMs caused the radiated emissions to fall outside the standard.

Problem Symptoms

There are no overt symptoms. The DC PEM no longer passes European radiated emissions certification testing.

Workaround/Solution

Replace the defective power supplies.

As of approximately May 2, 2001, the power supplies shown above in the Products Affected section that were manufactured under the deviation D007344 are guaranteed to be free of this problem. Refer to the How to Identify Hardware Levels section below for instructions on how to view the deviation on power supplies.

How To Identify Hardware Levels

Power supplies built to deviation D007344 have a sticker with the deviation number and a bar code. It may be necessary to remove the power supply from the chassis to view the deviation number sticker.

Note: It is not possible to obtain either the power supply's 34-level part number or the deviation number using the command line interface (CLI).
