How does fire extinguisher material affect a cisco router?

[robert-rittenhouse]

I have an oddball disaster-type situation where a fire extinguisher of type dry powder (ABC) was sprayed around a lot of Cisco gear in a server room. Could this material be corrosive to the circuit boards or would it just be dirty from the material?

Thanks

Computer rooms are expected to have specialized extingushers because ABC material (usually Ammonium Phosphate) can be corrosive to electronics.

You would need to get a professional inspect to determine if these is damage to the electronics.  Your insurance agent might be able to recommend someone.
