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 di gital 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 pr obabl y caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its
peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits
controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Ci sco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your auth ority to op erate the product.

Overview
The Cisco Nexus Fabric Extenders (FEXs) supp ort 100M/1G/10G Ethernet en vironments while allo wing
transparent migration to 10-Gigabit Ethernet virtual machine aware unified fabric technologies. The
Cisco Nexus FEXs behave as remote I/O modules for a parent Cisco Nexus switch. The FEX is an
extension of the parent Cisco Nexus switch fabric, with the FEX and the parent Cisco Nexus switch
together forming a virtual modular system.
A Cisco Nexus FEX forwards all the traffic to the parent Cisco Nexus Switch over 10/40-Gigabit
Ethernet uplinks. Passing all traffic to the parent switch allows traffic forwarding to be controlled
according to policies established on the parent Cisco Nexus switch with a single point of management.

Power Supply and Fan Modules
Each FEX chassis supports one or two power modules (one for operations and one for redundancy) and
1, 3, or 4 fan modules (depending on the FEX model). If the chassis has only one power supply, make
sure that there is a blank module (N2200-P-BLNK) installed in the unused po wer supply slot to preserve
the designed airflow.
Each FEX chassis supports power supply and fan modules that have either port-side intake or port-side
exhaust airflow.
CautionAll of the power supply and fan modules in the same chassis must have the same airflow direction and
the cold air intake for the chassis must be located in a cold aisle or else the switch can overheat and shut
down.
Port-side intake modules have red coloring and port-side exhaust modules have blue coloring. Power
supply coloring is displayed on the module release lat ches, and fan module coloring is d isplayed as either
a stripe on the front of the module or as the color of the module handle.
NoteSome older power supply and f an modules use black stripes for port-side intake airflo w and no st ripe for
port-side exhaust airflow.
You can hot swap a power supply module as lo ng as there is another power supply module functioning
in the chassis. You can hot swap a fan module in a chassis with multipl e fan modules as l ong as the other
fan modules are installed and functioning. You can hot swap a fan module in a chassis with a single fan
module as long as you replace it within 60 seconds.
For the power supplies supported by each FEX chassis, see Table 1-5. For the fan modules supported by
each FEX chassis, see Table 1-6.

to one FEX). If you are using the M2 Series 24-port, 10-Gi gabit Ethernet I/O module
(N7K-M224XP-23L), you can connect the FEX to an y of its ports for a fully dedicat ed bandwidth. If you
are using the F2 Series 48-port, 10-Gigabit Ethernet I/O module (N7K-F248XP-25), use the con nectivity
