  Recent observations of the radio and NIR source Sgr A* reinforce the
interpretation of the Galactic Center as a scaled down version of an AGN. The
discovery of an elongated structure at 43 GHz and increasing evidence for the
presence of an accretion disk surrounding a Black Hole lead us to assume that
both, an accretion disk and a jet, are present in the Galactic Center and are
physically linked. We model the radio emission of Sgr A* successfully with a
Blandford & K"onigl type jet and analyze the energetics of the coupled jet-disk
system in Sgr A* where jet and disk are parametrized in terms of the accretion
power. With this method we are able to confirm independently the lower limit of
the Sgr A* accretion rate \dot M >> 10^-8.5 M_sun found previously. Moreover,
using the limits imposed by observational data, we show that within such a
jet-disk model, the total jet power Q_jet is of comparable order as the
radiated disk luminosity L_disk. A jet model together with the assumption of an
10^6 M_sun Black Hole also qualitatively explains the submm excess and the lack
of non-thermal IR radiation. The small size of the visible part of the jet (< 1
mas) is due to the low accretion rate of Sgr A*. <<<A&A Letters, in press>>>
