RB5009 Power consumption

How to check RB5009 self power consumption in ROS?
It seam like it shows only consumption of PoE connected devices.

5  poe-in-voltage       46.3   V

You cannot check internally, only with external powerplug with measurement capabilities.
My RB5009 does about ± 9W (50% of all ports used, 1 SFP+ inserted (type S+RJ10)

That you, it is strange because in the documentation example for CCR1072-1G-8S+ it is written that there should be such field. Then why it is not available in RB5009.

Sure but RB5009 is not a CCR.
I guess the sensors are not there on the RB5009 board, they need to cut costs somewhere :wink:
The CCR1072 is slightly more “enterprise/datacenter” than a RB5009 which I consider “home user” or “small enterprise” grade equipment.
