| Sorry, you will not get smoke in this way. I power my routers from those desktop power cord without any problem. Just make sure the total power is less than the supply power if connect multiple routers to an power panel. | |

| Web,
You are perfectly fine by powering up your Cisco equipment with the PC cord. The amperage draw is not high enough to cause a concern. | |
