Caution When you are handling the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch or switch components, you must follow the

an ESD wrist strap that you connect to the earth ground in the data center building. 
Repacking the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch
If you do not have the original packing materials for the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch that you are going to 
repack, you must order another set of these materials (order part number is N7K-C7010-SHPPKG=).
Caution Do not subject the pallet, switch, or package to water or moisture. 
To repack the Cisco Nexus 7010 switch, follow these steps:
Step 1 Turn the power switch on each power supply unit to STBY. The OUTPUT LED turns off.
Step 2 For each AC power supply unit, remove the power cords as follows:
a. Remove the one or two power plugs from the power source. The Input LEDs turn off.
b. If you are removing a 6-kW AC power supply unit, unscrew the screw on the cable retention device 
and pull the one or two plugs off the power supply unit.
Note For a 7.5-kW power supply unit, you cannot remove the power cords from them because they 
are permanently attached.
Step 3 For each DC power supply unit, shut off the input power and remove the power cords as follows:
a. Turn off the DC input power by manually turning off each input circuit at its circuit breaker.
Warning
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. 
Statement 1003
b. Verify that the input power is completely off by making sure that all of the LEDs on the DC power 
supply units are off.
c. Detach each of the power cables from the powered down DC power source or DC power interface 
unit (PIU).
Warning
Hazardous voltage or energy may be present on DC power terminals. Always replace cover when 
terminals are not in service. Be sure uninsulated conductors are not accessible when cover is in 
place. 
Statement 1075
d. For each of the power plugs attached to the DC power supply unit, completely unscrew the two 
screws that hold it to the power supply unit and unplug it from the power supply unit.
