power ratings are always a best guess, and Cisco typically overrates
things by quite a bit. Also, the difference between watts and voltamps
must be considered, a quick visit to apcc.com will show they are not
equal. If the sticker is 200 watts on that 4000, assuming you're talking
110-120v us ac power, thats put the ampreage at about 1.5 to 2 amps for
it.
