Chapter 2 Temperature
Se n d d o c u m e n t c o m m e n t s t o n ex u s 7 k - d o c f e e d b a ck @ c i s c o . c o m
Temperature
Temperature extremes can cause the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches to operate at reduced efficiency and cause a variety of problems, including premature aging, failure of chips, and failure of switches. In addition, extreme temperature fluctuations can cause chips to become loose in their sockets. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches should operate in an environment that is not colder than 32F (0C) or hotter than 104F (40C). To control the switch temperature, you must make sure that the switch has adequate airflow, as follows:
The Cisco Nexus 7009 switch requires side-to-side airflow, which requires that you leave at least 11 inches (27.9 cm) free on both sides of the chassis (or 22 inches [55.8 cm] between two Cisco Nexus 7009 or 7018 switches]), and you must be sure that cables do not block the airflow from the lower right front of the chassis (for more information, see the Chassis Clearances section on page 3-15). The Cisco Nexus 7010 switch requires front-to-back airflow, which requires that you not block the front air intake or the rear exhaust areas (for more information, see the Chassis Clearances section on page 3-15). The Cisco Nexus 7018 switch requires side-to-side airflow, which requires that you leave at least 11 inches (27.9 cm) free on both sides of the chassis (or 22 inches [55.8 cm] between two Cisco Nexus 7009 or 7018 switches]), and you must be sure that cables do not block the airflow from the lower right front of the chassis (for more information, see the Chassis Clearances section on page 3-15).
To prevent overheating and to minimize the energy spent to cool the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch, do not place the chassis next to a heat source of any kind, including heating vents during cold weather. Adequate ventilation is particularly important if you are operating a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch at high altitudes. Make sure that all slots and openings on the chassis remain unobstructed, especially the fan vents. Clean the installation site at regular intervals to avoid buildup of dust and debris, which can cause a switch to overheat. If the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch is exposed to abnormally cold temperatures, allow a 2-hour warm-up period to bring it up to a normal operating temperature before you turn the switch on.
Caution
If you do not allow a 2-hour warm-up period when temperatures are abnormally cold, you can damage the internal components.
Note
The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches are equipped with internal air temperature sensors that trigger a minor alarm at 104F (40C) and a major alarm at 131F (55C).
Humidity
High humidity can cause moisture to seep into the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches. Moisture can cause corrosion of internal components and degradation of properties such as electrical resistance, thermal conductivity, physical strength, and size. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series is rated to operate at 8 to 80 percent relative humidity, with a humidity gradation of 10 percent per hour.

Chapter 2
Se n d d o c u m e n t c o m m e n t s t o n ex u s 7 k - d o c f e e d b a ck @ c i s c o . c o m
The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches can withstand from 5 to 90 percent relative humidity. Buildings in which the climate is controlled by air-conditioning in the warmer months and by heat during the colder months usually maintain an acceptable level of humidity for the switch equipment. However, if a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch is located in an unusually humid location, you should use a dehumidifier to maintain the humidity within an acceptable range.
Altitude
If you operate a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch at a high altitude (low pressure), the efficiency of forced and convection cooling is reduced and can result in electrical problems that are related to arcing and corona effects. This condition can also cause sealed components with internal pressure, such as electrolytic capacitors, to fail or to perform at a reduced efficiency. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series is rated to operate at altitudes from 500 to 13,123 feet (152 to 4,000 meters). You can store the switch at altitudes of 1,000 to 30,000 feet (305 to 9,144 meters).
Note
In the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch, you can install an optional air filter in a nonclean environment. In addition to regular cleaning, follow these precautions to avoid contamination of your equipment:
Do not permit smoking near the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch. Do not permit food or drink near the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch.
Corrosion
The corrosion of switch connectors is a gradual process that can eventually lead to intermittent failures of electrical circuits. The oil from your fingers or prolonged exposure to high temperature or humidity can corrode the gold-plated edge connectors and pin connectors on various components in the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches. To prevent corrosion, avoid touching contacts on modules and protect the switch from extreme temperatures and moist, salty environments.

RFI is defined as any EMI with a frequency above 10 kHz. This type of interference can travel from the switch to other devices through the power cable and power source or through the air like transmitted radio waves. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) publishes specific regulations to limit the amount of EMI and RFI that can be emitted by computing equipment. Each Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch meets these FCC regulations. To reduce the possibility of EMI and RFI, follow these guidelines:
Cover all open expansion slots with a metal filler. Always use shielded cables with metal connector shells for attaching peripherals to the switch.
When wires are run for any significant distance in an electromagnetic field, interference can occur between the field and the signals on the wires and cause the following implications:
Bad wiring can result in radio interference emanating from the plant wiring. Strong EMI, especially when it is caused by lightning or radio transmitters, can destroy the signal drivers and receivers in the chassis and even create an electrical hazard by conducting power surges through lines into equipment.
Note
To predict and prevent strong EMI, you might need to consult experts in radio frequency interference (RFI). The wiring is unlikely to emit radio interference if you use twisted-pair cable with a good distribution of grounding conductors. If you exceed the recommended distances, use a high-quality twisted-pair cable with one ground conductor for each data signal when applicable. If the wires exceed the recommended distances, or if wires pass between buildings, give special consideration to the effect of a lightning strike in your vicinity. The electromagnetic pulse caused by lightning or other high-energy phenomena can easily couple enough energy into unshielded conductors to destroy electronic switches. You may want to consult experts in electrical surge suppression and shielding if you had similar problems in the past.
Grounding
The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch is sensitive to variations in voltage supplied by the AC-power source. Overvoltage, undervoltage, and transients (or spikes) can erase data from the memory or cause components to fail. To protect against these types of problems, you should always properly ground power cables.
Power Source
You should use dedicated power circuits (rather than sharing circuits with other heavy electrical equipment). For input-source redundancy, we recommend that you use two dedicated power sources, each of which powers half of each power supply unit in the switch chassis. For 6-kW AC power supply

units (N7K-AC-6.0KW), the circuits must be rated for 20 A, 110 VAC or 220 VAC. For 7.5-kW power supply units (N7K-AC-7.5KW-INT and N7K-AC-7.5KW-US), the circuits must be rated for 30 A, 220 VAC. For 6-kW DC power supply units (N7K-DC-6.0KW), the circuits must be rated for 40 A , 48V-48V. The receptacles for AC circuits must be within 12 feet (3.6 m) of each power supply unit when it is installed in the switch chassis. The DC power supply connection must be within 15 feet (4.6 m) or you must install a DC Power Interface Unit (PIU) within that distance to connect to a distant power supply connection. If you are installing a DC PIU, you should install it in the same rack that holds the DC power supply units. Before you connect the power supply units to the AC or DC power, you must install the power supplies in the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series chassis.

Power-supply redundancy modeAllows you to replace a power supply during switch operations. All power supplies are active. The available power is calculated as the least amount of power available from all but one of the power supply units (N+1). The reserve power is the amount of power output by the power supply unit that can output the most power. For example, if three power supply units output 3 kW, 6 kW, and 6 kW, the available power is 9 kW (3 kW + 6 kW) and the reserve power is 6 kW. Input source redundancy modeTakes power from two electrical grids so that if one grid goes down, the other grid can provide the power needed by the switch. Each grid powers half of each power supply unit (grid A is connected to the Input 1 receptacle on each power supply unit and grid B is connected to the Input 2 receptacle on each power supply unit). The available power is the amount of power output by the portions of the power supply units that are connected to the same grid. For example, if three power supply units are connected to a 110-V grid and a 220-V grid, each power supply outputs 1.2 kW for the 110-V grid and 3.0 kW for the 220-V grid. The available power would be 3.6 kW (1.2 kW + 1.2 kW + 1.2 kW) and the reserve power would be 9.0 kW (3.0 kW + 3.0 kW + 3.0 kW). Full redundancy modeProvides both power-supply redundancy and input-source redundancy. This mode allows you to replace a power supply unit without interrupting switch operations or continue powering the switch if one of two grids goes down. The available power is the lesser amount of output power for power supply redundancy or input source redundancy.
The amount of power available for use with your Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch depends on the number of power supply units, input voltage used, and the power mode used. To determine the amount of available power for 6-kW AC power supply units, see Table 3-9. To determine the amount of power available for 7.5-kW AC power supply units, see Table 3-10. To determine the amount of power available for the 6-kW DC power supply units, see Table 3-11.

Chassis Clearances
You must provide adequate clearance for installing the switch, replacing switch modules, routing cables, and allowing airflow to and from the switch. This section includes the following topics:

If you are using a four-post rack or cabinet, you must have 7 inches (17.8 cm) between the chassis and the front and back of a four-post rack or interior of the cabinet (required for cabling). This requirement does not apply to a two-post rack.
Note
If the chassis is installed with the alternative center-mount bottom-support brackets, the chassis will protrude 6 inches (15.25 cm) beyond the mounting rails, so you must plan for 13 inches (33.0 cm) clearance in front of the mounting rails to get the required 7 inches (17.8 cm) clearance in front of the chassis.

To allow for the Cisco Nexus 7009 and 7018 switches to take in air from the cold aisle and floor on the right side, you should route cables on the left front side of the switch. If necessary, you can route cables on the upper right front side of the chassis, which leaves the lower right side open to cooling air from the cold aisle in front of the chassis. By having the cables on the left side and leaving the left rear side unobstructed, the exhaust is directed to the hot aisle in back. For the clearances required on each side of the switch, see the Chassis Clearances section on page 3-15. To determine the clearances required on each side of the switch, see the Chassis Clearances section on page 3-15. To determine the maximum amount of airflow for a fully configured switch, see Table 3-16 for the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch or see Table 3-17 for the Cisco Nexus 7018 switch.

General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks, page B-1 Cabinet and Rack Vendors, page B-3
Standard perforated cabinets Solid-walled cabinets with a roof fan tray (bottom to top cooling) Standard open racks Four-post Telco racks (required by the Cisco Nexus 7010 and 7018 switches and can be used for the Cisco Nexus 7009 switches) Two-post Telco racks (used with only the Cisco Nexus 7009 switches)
Note
If you select an enclosed cabinet, we recommend that you use one of the following thermally validated types: standard perforated or solid-walled with a fan tray. To correctly install the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch in a cabinet that is located in a hot-aisle/cold-aisle environment, you should fit a cabinet with baffles to prevent exhaust air from recirculating into the chassis air intake. The rack or cabinet used to hold a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series chassis should meet the following physical requirements:
Use a standard 19-inch, four-post Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) cabinet or rack with mounting rails that conform to English universal hole spacing per section 1 of the ANSI/EIA-310-D-1992 standard. The height of the rack or cabinet must accommodate the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches as follows:
For the Cisco Nexus 7009 switch, the rack height must be at least 15 RU for one chassis and at

Note
Alternatively, if you need to install three 14 RU Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis in a 42 RU rack, you can perform a front-mount installation for all three chassis without using the bottom-support rails. For front-mount installations, you must use a mechanical lift to first position the lowest chassis at the lowest RU in the rack before attaching it. After that, you raise a second chassis to the top of the lowest chassis and slide the second chassis on top before attaching it to the rack. Finally, you raise a third chassis to the top of the second installed chassis, slide the third one on top of the second installed chassis before attaching it to the rack.
Caution
If you are doing center-mount installations, you must use a bottom-support rail for each chassis, which requires 15 RU for each installed chassis.
For the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch, the rack height must be at least 21 RU for one chassis and 42
The depth of a four-post rack must be 24 to 32 inches (61.0 to 81.3 cm) between the front and rear mounting brackets. Required clearances between the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis and the edge of its rack or interior of its cabinet are as follows:
If you are using a four-post rack or cabinet, you must have 7 inches (17.8 cm) between the
chassis and the front and back of a four-post rack or interior of the cabinet (required for cabling). This requirement does not apply to a two-post rack.
Note
If the chassis is installed with the alternative center-mount bottom-support brackets, the chassis will protrude 6 inches (15.25 cm) beyond the mounting rails, so you must plan for 13 inches (33.0 cm) clearance in front of the mounting rails to get the required 7 inches (17.8 cm) clearance in front of the chassis.
11 inches (27.9 cm) between the side of the chassis and the interior of the cabinet or the
clearance area for the next rack or cabinet (required for side-to-side airflow with all types of racks or cabinets)
Required clearances between the Cisco Nexus 7010 chassis and the edges of its rack or the interior of its cabinet are as follows:
7 inches (17.8 cm) between the chassis and the front and back of the rack or interior of the
Required clearances between the Cisco Nexus 7018 chassis and the edges of its rack or the interior of its cabinet are as follows:
7 inches (17.8 cm) between the chassis and the front and back of the rack or interior of the
clearance area for the next rack or cabinet (required for side-to-side airflow) Additionally, you must consider the following site requirements for the rack:
AC power receptacles must be located within 12 feet (3.6 m) of each power supply unit in each chassis.

Cable management for one or two switches in the same rack are as follows:
For the Cisco Nexus 7009 switch, provide cable management for up to 336 ports for each
chassis.
For the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch, provide cable management for up to 384 ports for each
chassis.
For the Cisco Nexus 7018 switch, provide cable management for up to 768 ports for each
chassis.
Cable routing within the cabinet or beside the rack must not block access to any of the removable modules installed in a chassis or block any airflow on the inlet and exhaust vents of the chassis. With cabinets, route the cables out the top or bottom as follows:
For the Cisco Nexus 7009 switch, route the cables along the left side of the front of the chassis
so that cooling air can flow to the chassis from the right front side and heated exhaust air is vented to the left and directed to the hot aisle in the rear. If necessary, you can also route cables to the upper half of the right side of the chassis if the lower right side of the front is open for airflow from the cold-aisle and floor to the air intake.
For the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch, route the cables through the cable management area on the
so that cooling air can flow to the chassis from the right front side and heated exhaust air is vented to the left and directed to the hot aisle in the rear. If necessary, you can also route cables to the upper half of the right side of the chassis if the lower right side of the front is open for airflow from the cold-aisle and floor to the air intake.
Where necessary, have a seismic rating of Network Equipment Building Standards (NEBS) Zone 3 or Zone 4, per GR-63-CORE if required. Minimum gross load rating of 2000 lb (907.2 kg) (static load rating) if supporting two switches.
