For instructions on how to use a rack-mount kit, see the “Installing the Switch” section on page 2-5. Airflow Direction The airflow through the fan trays and power supplies on the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch is either from front to back or from back to front, depending on how the modules were ordered. To ensure proper airflow, you must make sure that when you install the switch its air intake is positioned in a cold aisle and the air exhaust is positioned in a hot aisle for your data center. AI: Add the terms port side intake (back to front) and port side exhaust (front to back) Chassis Weight When lifting the switch chassis, follow these guidelines: • Disconnect all power and external cables before lifting the switch. • Have two people lift the switch. The Cisco Nexus 6004 with three 1100W power supplies, four expansion modules, and four fan modules weighs 122 lb. The Cisco Nexus 6004 with three 1100W power supplies and four fan modules weighs 100 lb. • Ensure that your footing is solid and the weight of the switch is evenly distributed between your feet. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide 2-2 OL-15902-01 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Preparing for Installation • Lift the switch slowly, keeping your back straight. Lift with your legs, not with your back. Bend at the knees, not at the waist. Installation Guidelines When installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch, follow these guidelines: • Record the information listed in Appendix G, “Site Planning and Maintenance Records,” as you install and configure the switch. • Ensure that there is adequate space around the switch to allow for servicing the switch and for adequate airflow (Appendix B, “Technical Specifications,” lists the service and airflow requirements). • Ensure that the air-conditioning meets the heat dissipation requirements listed in Appendix B, “Technical Specifications.” • Ensure that the cabinet or rack meets the requirements listed in Appendix A, “Cabinet and Rack Installation.” Jumper power cords are available for use in a cabinet. See the “Jumper Power Cord” section on page C-8. Note • Ensure that the chassis can be adequately grounded. If the switch is not mounted in a grounded rack, we recommend connecting both the system ground on the chassis and the power supply ground directly to an earth ground. • Ensure that the site power meets the power requirements listed in Appendix B, “Technical Specifications.” If available, you can use an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect against power failures. Caution • Avoid UPS types that use ferroresonant technology. These UPS types can become unstable with systems such as the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch, which can have substantial current draw fluctuations because of fluctuating data traffic patterns. Ensure that circuits are sized according to local and national codes. For North America, the power supply requires a 15-A or 20-A circuit. Caution To prevent loss of input power, ensure the total maximum loads on the circuits supplying power to the switch are within the current ratings for the wiring and breakers. • Ensure that all fan trays and power supplies have the same airflow direction. • Use the following screw torques when installing the switch: – Captive screws: 4 in-lb (0.45 N·m) – M3 screws: 4 in-lb (0.45 N·m) – M4 screws: 12 in-lb (1.36 N·m) – 10-32 screws: 20 in-lb (2.26 N·m) – 12-24 screws: 30 in-lb (3.39 N·m) Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 2-3 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Preparing for Installation Required Equipment Before beginning the installation, ensure that you have the following items available: • Four 12-24 or 10-32 screws for attaching slider rails to the rack • Number 1 and number 2 Phillips screwdrivers with torque capability • 3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver • Tape measure and level • ESD wrist strap or other grounding device • Antistatic mat or antistatic foam The following additional items (not found in the accessory kit) are required to ground the chassis: • Grounding cable (6 AWG recommended), sized according to local and national installation requirements; the required length depends on the proximity of the switch to proper grounding facilities • Crimping tool large enough to accommodate the girth of the lug • Wire-stripping tool Unpacking and Inspecting the Switch Caution When handling switch components, wear an ESD strap and handle modules by their handles and carrier edges only. An ESD socket is provided on the chassis.

Grounding the Switch This section describes the need for system grounding for all of the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch and explains how to prevent damage from electrostatic discharge. This section includes the following topics: • Proper Grounding Practices, page 2-7 • Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage, page 2-9 • Establishing the System Ground, page 2-10 • Required Tools and Equipment, page 2-11 • Grounding the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Chassis, page 2-11 Proper Grounding Practices Grounding is one of the most important parts of equipment installation. Proper grounding practices ensure that the buildings and the installed equipment within them have low-impedance connections and low-voltage differentials between chassis. When you properly ground systems during installation, you reduce or prevent shock hazards, equipment damage due to transients, and data corruption. Table 2-2 lists some general grounding practice guidelines. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 2-7 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Grounding the Switch Table 2-2 Proper Grounding Guidelines Environment Commercial building is subjected to direct lightning strikes. Electromagnetic Noise Severity Level Grounding Recommendations High All lightning protection devices must be installed in strict accordance with manufacturer recommendations. Conductors carrying lightning current should be spaced away from power and data lines in accordance with applicable recommendations and codes. Best grounding recommendations must be closely followed. High Best grounding recommendations must be closely followed. For example, some places in the United States, such as Florida, are subject to more lightning strikes than other areas. Commercial building is located in an area where lightning storms frequently occur but is not subject to direct lightning strikes. Note Commercial building contains a Medium to high mix of information technology equipment and industrial equipment, such as welding. Best grounding recommendations must be closely followed. Existing commercial building is Medium not subject to natural environmental noise or man-made industrial noise. This building contains a standard office environment. This installation has a history of malfunction due to electromagnetic noise. Determine source and cause of noise if possible, and mitigate as closely as possible at the noise source or reduce coupling from the noise source to the affected equipment. Best grounding recommendations must be closely followed. New commercial building is not Low subject to natural environmental noise or man-made industrial noise. This building contains a standard office environment. Electromagnetic noise problems are not anticipated, but installing a grounding system in a new building is often the least expensive route and the best way to plan for the future. Best grounding recommendations should be followed as closely as possible. Existing commercial building is Low not subject to natural environmental noise or man-made industrial noise. This building contains a standard office environment. Electromagnetic noise problems are not anticipated, but installing a grounding system is always recommended. Best grounding recommendations should be followed as much as possible. In all situations, grounding practices must comply with local National Electric Code (NEC) requirements or local laws and regulations. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide 2-8 OL-15902-01 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Grounding the Switch Note Always ensure that all of the modules are completely installed and that the captive installation screws are fully tightened. In addition, ensure that all I/O cables and power cords are properly seated. These practices are normal installation practices and must be followed in all installations. Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when modules or other FRUs are improperly handled, results in intermittent or complete failures. Modules consist of printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, always use an ESD grounding strap when handling modules. For preventing ESD damage, follow these guidelines: Note • Always use an ESD wrist strap and ensure that it makes maximum contact with bare skin. • ESD grounding straps are available with banana plugs, metal spring clips, or alligator clips. All chassis from the Cisco Nexus 6000 series are equipped with a banana plug connector (identified by the ground symbol next to the connector) somewhere on the front panel. We recommend that you use a personal ESD grounding strap equipped with a banana plug. • If you choose to use the disposable ESD wrist strap supplied with most FRUs or an ESD wrist strap equipped with an alligator clip, you must attach the system ground lug to the chassis in order to provide a proper grounding point for the ESD wrist strap. This system ground is also referred to as the network equipment building system (NEBS) ground. • Note If your chassis does not have the system ground attached, you must install the system ground lug. See the “Establishing the System Ground” section on page 2-10 for installation instructions and location of the chassis system ground pads. You do not need to attach a supplemental system ground wire to the system ground lug; the lug provides a direct path to the bare metal of the chassis. After you install the system ground lug, follow these steps to correctly attach the ESD wrist strap: Step 1 Step 2 Attach the ESD wrist strap to bare skin as follows: a. If you are using the ESD wrist strap supplied with the FRUs, open the wrist strap package and unwrap the ESD wrist strap. Place the black conductive loop over your wrist and tighten the strap so that it makes good contact with your bare skin. b. If you are using an ESD wrist strap equipped with an alligator clip, open the package and remove the ESD wrist strap. Locate the end of the wrist strap that attaches to your body and secure it to your bare skin. Grasp the spring or alligator clip on the ESD wrist strap and momentarily touch the clip to a bare metal spot (unpainted surface) on the rack. We recommend that you touch the clip to an unpainted rack rail so that any built-up static charge is then safely dissipated to the entire rack. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 2-9 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Grounding the Switch Step 3 Attach either the spring clip or the alligator clip to the ground lug screw as follows: a. Note b. If you are using the ESD wrist strap that is supplied with the FRUs, squeeze the spring clip jaws open, position the spring clip to one side of the system ground lug screw head, and slide the spring clip over the lug screw head so that the spring clip jaws close behind the lug screw head. The spring clip jaws do not open wide enough to fit directly over the head of the lug screw or the lug barrel. If you are using an ESD wrist strap that is equipped with an alligator clip, attach the alligator clip directly over the head of the system ground lug screw or to the system ground lug barrel. To attach the ESD wrist strap to the system ground lug screw for any of the Cisco Nexus 6000 switches, clip the grounding wire to the screw that attaches the grounding lug to the switch chassis. In addition, follow these guidelines when handling modules: Caution • Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or connectors. • Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding container. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding container. • Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier. For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement should be between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm). Establishing the System Ground This section describes how to connect a system ground to the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series switch. You must use the system ground on AC-powered systems if you are installing this equipment in a U.S. or European Central Office. The system ground provides additional grounding for EMI shielding requirements and grounding for the low-voltage supplies (DC-DC converters) on the modules and is intended to satisfy the Telcordia Technologies requirements for supplemental bonding and grounding connections. You must observe the following system grounding guidelines for your chassis: • You must install the system ground connection with any other rack or system power ground connections that you make. The system ground connection is required if this equipment is installed in a U.S. or European Central Office. • You must connect both the system ground connection and the power supply ground connection to an earth ground. The system ground connection is required if this equipment is installed in a U.S. or European Central Office. • You do not need to power down the chassis because the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series switches are equipped with AC-input power supplies. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide 2-10 OL-15902-01 Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Switches Grounding the Switch Required Tools and Equipment To connect the system ground, you need the following tools and materials: • Grounding lug—A two-hole standard barrel lug. This lug supports up to 6 AWG wire. Supplied as part of accessory kit. • Grounding screws—Two M4 x 8mm (metric) pan-head screws. These screws are supplied as part of the accessory kit. • Grounding wire—Not supplied as part of accessory kit. The grounding wire should be sized according to local and national installation requirements.

Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide 2-16 OL-15902-01 CH APT ER 3 Connecting the Switch This chapter describes how to connect the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series switches to the following types of ports: Caution • Console port —A port that you can use to create a local management connection. • Ethernet ports, both encrypted and unencrypted—These ports can be used to connect to a LAN. When running power and data cables in overhead or subfloor cable trays, we strongly recommend that you locate power cables and other potential noise sources as far away as practical from network cabling that terminates on Cisco equipment. In situations where long parallel cable runs cannot be separated by at least 3.3 ft (1 m), we recommend that you shield any potential noise sources by housing them in a grounded metallic conduit. This chapter includes the following sections: • Preparing for Network Connections, page 3-2 • Connecting to the Console Port, page 3-2 • Connecting to the Ethernet Connector Port, page 3-3 • Connecting to an Ethernet Port, page 3-3 Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 3-1 Chapter 3 Connecting the Switch Preparing for Network Connections Preparing for Network Connections When preparing your site for network connections to the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch, consider the following for each type of interface, and gather all the required equipment before connecting the ports: • Cabling required for each interface type • Distance limitations for each signal type • Additional interface equipment required Connecting to the Console Port The console port is an RS-232 port with an RJ-45 interface. The console port is an asynchronous (async) serial port; any device connected to this port must be capable of asynchronous transmission. We recommend using this port to create a local management connection to set the IP address and other initial configuration settings before connecting the switch to the network for the first time. Caution The console port can be used to connect to a modem. If you do not connect it to a modem, connect it either before powering the switch on or after the switch has completed the boot process. You can use the console port to perform the following: Note • Configure the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch from the CLI. • Monitor network statistics and errors. • Configure SNMP agent parameters. • Download software updates. To connect the console port to a computer terminal, the computer must support VT100 terminal emulation. The terminal emulation software (such as HyperTerminal or Procomm Plus) makes communication between the Cisco Nexus 6000 switch and a computer possible during setup and configuration. To connect the console port to a computer terminal, follow these steps: Step 1 Configure the terminal emulator program to match the following default port characteristics: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity. Step 2 Connect the RJ-45 connector of the console cable to the console port and the DB-9 connector to the computer serial port. Note For configuration instructions, see the appropriate Cisco Nexus 6000 Series CLI configuration guide. Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide 3-2 OL-15902-01 Chapter 3 Connecting the Switch Connecting to the Ethernet Connector Port Connecting to the Ethernet Connector Port Caution To prevent an IP address conflict, do not connect the management port to the network until the initial configuration is complete. For configuration instructions, see the Cisco Nexus 6000 Series CLI Configuration Guide. This section describes how to connect the Ethernet connector port to an external hub, switch, or router. The Ethernet connector port has an RJ-45 interface. To connect the Ethernet connector port to an external hub, switch, or router, follow these steps: Step 1 Step 2 Connect the appropriate modular cable to the Ethernet connector port: • Use modular, RJ-45, straight-through UTP cables to connect the Ethernet connector port to an Ethernet switch port or hub. • Use a cross-over cable to connect to a router interface. Connect the other end of the cable to the device. Connecting to an Ethernet Port To connect to an Ethernet port, you must install transceivers and connect them with optical cables. This section includes the following topics: • Installing and Replacing Transceivers, page 3-3 • Installing Cables into Transceivers, page 3-5 Installing and Replacing Transceivers Caution Excessively removing and installing a transceiver can shorten its life.

Note Do not use racks that have obstructions (such as power strips), because the obstructions could impair access to field-replaceable units (FRUs). This section includes the following topics: • General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks, page A-1 • Requirements Specific to Perforated Cabinets, page A-2 General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks The cabinet or rack must be one of the following types: • Standard 19-in. (48.3 cm) (four-post EIA cabinet or rack, with mounting rails that conform to English universal hole spacing per section 1 of ANSI/EIA-310-D-1992. See the “Requirements Specific to Perforated Cabinets” section on page A-2. The cabinet or rack must also meet the following requirements: • The minimum vertical rack space for the Cisco Nexus 6004 chassis must be four RU (rack units). Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 A-1 Appendix A Cabinet and Rack Installation Cable Management Guidelines • The width between the rack-mounting rails must be at least 19 inches if the rear of the switch is not attached to the rack. For four-post EIA racks, this is the distance between the two front rails. • For four-post EIA cabinets (perforated or solid-walled), the requirements are as follows: – The minimum spacing for the bend radius for fiber-optic cables should have the front-mounting rails of the cabinet offset from the front door by a minimum of 3 inches (7.6 cm), and a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) if cable management brackets are installed on the front of the chassis. – The distance between the outside face of the front mounting rail and the outside face of the back mounting rail should be 23.5 to 34.0 inches (59.7 to 86.4 cm) to allow for rear-bracket installation. – A minimum of 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) of clear space should exist between the side edge of the chassis and the side wall of the cabinet. No sizeable flow obstructions should be immediately in the way of chassis air intake or exhaust vents. Note Optional jumper power cords are available for use in a cabinet. See the “Jumper Power Cord” section on page C-8. Requirements Specific to Perforated Cabinets A perforated cabinet is as a cabinet with perforated front and rear doors and solid side walls. In addition to the requirements listed in the “General Requirements for Cabinets and Racks” section on page A-1, perforated cabinets must meet the following requirements: • The front and rear doors must have at least a 60 percent open area perforation pattern, with at least 15 square inches (96.8 square cm) of open area per rack unit of door height. • The roof should be perforated with at least a 20 percent open area. • The cabinet floor should be open or perforated to enhance cooling. Cisco provides an R-Series rack that conforms to these requirements. Cable Management Guidelines To help with cable management, you might want to allow additional space in the rack above and below the chassis to make it easier to route as many as 56 fiber or copper cables through the rack.

This appendix includes the following sections: • Overview, page E-1 • Switch Hardware Best Practices, page E-1 • Power Supply Conditions, page E-2 Overview The key to success when troubleshooting the system hardware is to isolate the problem to a specific system component. The first step is to compare what the system is doing to what it should be doing. Because a startup problem can usually be attributed to a single component, it is more efficient to isolate the problem to a subsystem rather than troubleshoot each separate component in the system. Problems with the initial power up are often caused by a module that is not firmly connected to the backplane or a power supply that has been disconnected from the power cord connector. Overheating can also cause problems with the system, though typically only after the system has been operating for an extended period of time. The most common cause of overheating is the failure of a fan module. Switch Hardware Best Practices Use the recommendations in this section to ensure the proper installation, initialization, and operation of the switch. This section includes the following topics: • Installation Best Practices, page E-2 • Initialization Best Practices, page E-2 • Switch Operation Best Practices, page E-2 Cisco Nexus 6000 Series Hardware Installation Guide OL-15902-01 E-1 Appendix E Troubleshooting Hardware Components Power Supply Conditions Installation Best Practices When installing the switch, follow these best practices: • Plan your site configuration and prepare the site before installing the chassis. • Verify that you have the appropriate power supplies for your chassis configuration. • Install the chassis following the rack and airflow guidelines presented in this guide. • Verify that the chassis is adequately grounded. Initialization Best Practices When the initial system boot is complete, verify the following: • Power supplies are supplying power to the system. • Fan modules are operating normally. • The system software boots successfully. Switch Operation Best Practices To ensure proper operation of your switch, take the following actions: • Make a copy of the running configuration to CompactFlash for a safe backup. • Always enter the copy running-config startup-config CLI command after you modify the running configuration and ensure that the system is operating properly. • Never use the init system CLI command unless you understand that you will lose the running and startup configuration as well as the files stored on bootflash:. • Keep backup copies of the running kickstart and the system images on CompactFlash. Power Supply Conditions The two LEDs on each power supply indicate the power status for each power supply. To determine the current status for a power supply unit, note which LED is on, blinking, or off and refer to Table E-1. Table E-1 Power Supply Conditions Power Supply Condition Power LED Status Fail LED Status No power to all power supplies. Off Off Power supply failure, including overvoltage, overcurrent, Off overtemperature, and fan failure. On Power supply warning events where the power supply continues to operate. These events include high temperature, high power, and slow fan. Blinking Off AC present, 3.3 voltage standby (VSB) on, and the power Blinking supply unit is off. Off Power supply on and OK.
