THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices.

The Cisco Nexus 5020 switch is a 2 RU, top-of-rack switch that provides Ethernet and Fibre Channel consolidation in a single physical cable. The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocol is used to consolidate Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic onto the same physical connection between the server and the switch. As a top-of-rack switch, all the servers in the rack connect to the Cisco Nexus 5020 switch, and it connects to the LAN or SAN.

The Cisco Nexus 5020 switch is a part of a family of switches that provide 10-Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE ports and both 10-Gigabit Ethernet and native 1-, 2-, and 4-Gbps Fibre Channel ports. The switches provide consolidated I/O connectivity to both production Ethernet LANs and Fibre Channel SANs in a cost-effective, high-performance, low-latency Ethernet switch.

The Cisco Nexus 5020 switch has the following features:

• Forty fixed 10-Gigabit Ethernet server connection ports on the back of the switch

Features

The Cisco Nexus 5010 switch is a 1RU, top-of-rack switch that provides Ethernet and Fibre Channel consolidation in a single physical cable. The Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocol is used to consolidate Ethernet and Fibre Channel traffic onto the same physical connection between the server and the switch. As a top-of-rack switch, all the servers in the rack connect to the Cisco Nexus 5010 switch, and it connects to the LAN or SAN.

The Cisco Nexus 5010 switch is a part of a family of switches that provide 10-Gigabit Ethernet and FCoE ports and both 10-Gigabit Ethernet and native 1-, 2-, and 4-Gbps Fibre Channel ports. The switches provide consolidated I/O connectivity to both production Ethernet LANs and Fibre Channel SANs in a cost-effective, high-performance, low-latency Ethernet switch.

The Cisco Nexus 5010 switch has the following features:

• One slot on the back of the switch for an optional uplink Gatos Expansion Module [GEM]. There

are several modules which can be accommodated in this slot. Three such modules are N5K-M1404, N5K-M1600 and N5K-M1008.

• Twenty to twenty-eight ports on the back of the switch depending on which GEM is installed. This

is because twenty ports on Cisco Nexus 5010 switch belong to the base switch. Additionally, one module can be inserted which can be of 6 or 8 ports.

• Two slots on the front of the switch for hot swap-capable power supplies.

• Two slots on the front of the switch for fan modules. Each fan module houses six fans. The

combination of six fans per module and two modules provides the switch with a total of 12-fans.

Chassis

The Cisco Nexus 5010 chassis is 1 RU, 1.72 inches tall, 17.3 inches wide and 30.0 inches deep. It is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. The switch has two power supplies and two fans modules on the front of the switch. Ports are at the rear of the switch. The airflow is front to back.
