Figure 1: Connections Between APIC Clusters, Leaf Nodes, and Spine Nodes
Preparing to Connect to Other Devices
When preparing to connect the fabric devices, consider the following for each type of interface, and gather
all of the required equipment before making the connections:
• Cabling type required for each interface type
• Distance limitations for each signal type
• Additional interface equipment required
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 feet (1 meter), we recommend that you shield any potential noise sources by housing them in a grounded
metallic conduit.
