Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable or connector. Do not
view directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with certain optical instruments (for example,
eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a distance of 100 mm may pose an eye hazard.
Warning
Before you begin
• The leaf and spine switches in the fabric must be fully installed in their racks and grounded.
• If there are modular switches in the fabric, their ACI-mode line cards must already be installed. The line
cards can be of the following types:
• 36-port 40-Gigabit (N9K-X9736PQ)
• 32-port 100-Gigabit (N9K-X9732C-EX) (supported by Cisco Nexus 9504 and 9508 modular
switches)
