Ports for the Cisco Nexus 3016 Switch

The Cisco Nexus 3016 switch chassis includes the following ports:

• 40-Gigabit Ethernet uplink or downlink ports (16 ports)

• 100/1000 Ethernet management ports (2 ports)

• Console port (1 port)

• USB port (1 port)

The chassis has 16 40-Gigabit Ethernet ports that you can connect to hosts (uplink connections) or servers (downlink connections), which are often in the same rack or a nearby rack. Each of these ports uses a QSFP+ transceiver which is connected to one or four optical or copper cables. If one cable is used, it has a QSFP+ transceiver on the other end. If four cables are used, each of those cables has an SFP+ transceiver on the other end. The ports are numbered from left to right from 1 to 16 with the odd-numbered ports on top and the even-numbered ports on the bottom.

Two 100/1000 Ethernet management ports enable you to manage switch operations. You can connect to the switch through these two ports by using an RJ-45 connector on a copper cable.

One console port enables you to initially configure the switch and to perform troubleshooting operations. You use an RJ-45 connector with a copper cable to connect to this port.

One USB port enables you to save or load switch configurations.

Power Supply for the Cisco Nexus 3016 Switch

The Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switch has two slots for power supplies that are initially installed with one or two AC or DC power supplies that have forward or reverse airflow for their cooling. The switch requires only one power supply for its operations, but you can include a second one for redundancy.

To determine which part number to use when ordering replacement power supplies, see Tab le 1-2.

Ta b l e 1-2 Cisco Nexus 3016 Power Supply Part Numbers

Power Source Airflow Direction Power Supply Part Number

AC Forward N2200-PAC-400W=

AC Reverse N2200-PAC-400W-B=

DC Forward N2200-PDC-400W=

DC Reverse N3K-PDC-350W-B=

If the chassis has two power supplies, you can hot swap one of the power supplies during operations. If the chassis has only one power supply, you can install the new power supply in the open slot, turn on that power supply, and then remove the original power supply during operations.

Caution You can order replacement power supplies with forward airflow or reverse airflow. Be sure to order the

same direction of airflow as is used with the switch. If there is a black stripe across the front of the fan trays and power supplies, the switch is running reverse airflow and you must order power supplies with reverse airflow (each module has a black stripe). If there is no black stripe across the front of these modules, the switch is running forward airflow and you must order replacement modules with forward airflow (modules that do not have a black stripe).

Caution The switch must run with all of its power supply and fan tray modules taking in air from a cold aisle and

exhausting air to the hot aisle. If they take in air from a hot aisle, an overtemperature condition can occur and the switch will shut down. If the airflow directions are mixed in the same switch, you will see an error.

Note Never leave a power supply slot empty. If you remove a power supply, replace it with another one. If you

do not have a replacement power supply, leave the non functioning one in place until you can replace it or fill the slot with a filler blank module (part number N2200-P-BLNK).

For power supply specifications, see the “Power Specifications” section on page B-2. For information about the power supply LEDs and what they indicate, see the “Power Supply Status” section on

page D-3.

Fan Tray for the Cisco Nexus 3016 Switch

The Cisco Nexus 3016 switch ships with one fan tray, which is the same fan tray used by the Cisco Nexus 3064 switch (part number N3K-C3064-FAN for forward airflow or N3K-C3064-FAN-B for reverse airflow). You can hot swap the fan tray during operations but must replace it within two minutes or the switch can reach an overtemperature condition and shut down.

Caution You can order a replacement fan tray with forward airflow or reverse airflow. Be sure to order the same

direction of airflow as is used with the switch. If there is a black stripe across the front of the fan trays and power supplies, the switch is running reverse airflow and you must order a fan tray with reverse airflow. If there is no black stripe across the front of these modules, the switch has forward airflow and you must order replacement modules with forward airflow.

Caution The switch must run with all of its power supply and fan tray modules taking in air from a cold aisle and

Port Connections for the Cisco Nexus 3016 Switch

You use QSFP+ transceivers with the 16 networking ports used for uplinking and downlinking. For low-cost connections to switches in the same or adjacent racks, use QSFP+ transceivers with copper cables. For long distance connections, use the QSFP transceivers connected to optical cables.

Fan Tray for the Cisco Nexus 3048 Switch

The Cisco Nexus 3048 switch ships with one fan tray, which provides forward airflow from the fan tray to the port connector end exhaust (spares part number N3K-C3048-FAN=) or reverse airflow from the port connectors end of the chassis to the fan tray for exhaust (spares part number N3K-C3048-FAN-B). You can hot swap the fan tray during operations but must replace it within two minutes or the switch can reach an overtemperature condition and shut down.

Caution You can order a replacement fan tray with forward airflow or reverse airflow. Be sure to order the same

direction of airflow that is used with the switch. If there is a black stripe across the front of the fan trays and power supplies, the switch is running reverse airflow and you must order a fan tray with reverse airflow. If there is no black stripe across the front of these modules, the switch has forward airflow and you must order replacement modules with forward airflow.

Caution The switch must run with all of its power supply and fan tray modules taking in air from a cold aisle and

Chassis for the Cisco Nexus 3064 Switch

The 1-RU Cisco Nexus 3064 chassis (part number N3K-C3064PQ-10GE or N3K-C3064PQ-10GX) is

1.72 inches (4.37 cm) high, 17.3 inches (43.9 cm) wide, and 19.7 inches (45.0 cm) deep. This switch is designed for 19-inch (48.3 cm) racks. Its switch ports are at the rear of the chassis in close proximity to server ports, and the power supplies and fan tray modules are accessible from the front for easy replacement. You can order this switch with forward or reverse airflow depending on whether the front of the switch is in a cold aisle (forward airflow) or in a hot aisle (reverse airflow). You can also order the switch with AC or DC power supplies.

Fully populated with two power supplies and a fan tray, the switch weighs 20.5 pounds (9.3 kg) and can be easily installed by one or two people.

Figure 1-5 shows the front of the chassis and identifies the components that you use to install and

connect the chassis. Figure 1-6 shows the rear of the chassis and identifies the components that you use to install and connect the chassis.

Ports for the Cisco Nexus 3064 Switch

The switch chassis includes the following ports:

• 1- and 10-Gigabit Ethernet downlink ports (48 ports)

• 40-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports (4 ports, each handling 4 x 10-Gigabit Ethernet)

• 100/1000 Ethernet management ports (2 ports)

• Console port (1 port)

• USB port (1 port)

The chassis has 48 1- and 10-Gigabit Ethernet downlink ports that you connect to servers, which are often in the same rack or a nearby rack. You use Small Form factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) transceivers with copper or optical cables to connect the switch to the servers. The ports are numbered from left to right from 1 to 48 with the odd-numbered ports on top and the even-numbered ports on the bottom.

You use up to four 40-Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports to connect the switch to one to four hosts or switches. You use a Quad SFP+ (QSFP+) transceiver for each of these ports. That transceiver is either already connected to four copper cables, each handling 10 Gigabits of data, with a SFP+ transceiver on each cable, or you connect an optical cable to the QSFP+ transceiver and to another QSFP+ transceiver on another switch.

Two 100/1000 Ethernet management ports enable you to manage switch operations. You can connect to the switch through these two ports by using an RJ-45 connector on a copper cable.

One console port enables you to initially configure the switch and to perform troubleshooting operations. You use an RJ-45 connector with a copper cable to connect to this port.

One USB port enables you to save or load switch configurations.
