Summary

CHAPTER 1 Overview

Overview

The Cisco Nexus 9348GC-FXP switch (N9K-C9348GC-FXP) is a 1-RU fixed-port, L2/L3 switch, designed for deployment in data centers.

CHAPTER 2 Preparing the Site

Grounding Requirements

The switch is sensitive to variations in voltage supplied by the power sources. Overvoltage, undervoltage, and transients (or spikes) can erase data from memory or cause components to fail.

Planning for Power Requirements

The switch includes two power supplies (1-to-1 redundancy with current sharing) in one of the following combinations: Two 350-W AC power supplies.

CHAPTER 3 Installing the Switch Chassis

Safety

Before you install, operate, or service the switch, see the Regulatory, Compliance, and Safety Information for the Cisco Nexus 3000 and 9000 Series for important Safety Information.

Installing the Switch

To install the switch, you must attach front and rear mounting brackets to the switch, install slider rails on the rear of the rack, slide the switch onto the slider rails, and secure the switch to the front of the rack.

Installing the Switch into a Two-post Rack

To install the switch, you must attach mounting brackets to the switch and secure the switch to the rack. Installation in racks other than 19-inch racks requires a bracket kit not included with the switch.

Grounding the Chassis

The switch chassis is automatically grounded when you properly install the switch in a grounded rack with metal-to-metal connections between the switch and rack.

Starting the Switch

You start the switch by connecting it to its dedicated power source. If you need n+1 redundancy, you must connect each of the power supplies to one or two power sources.

CHAPTER 4 Connecting the Switch to the Network

Connecting to the Network

You need to connect the following ports when connecting the switch to the network: Console port, Management ports, Uplink and downlink ports.

Connecting to a Console

You can connect the switch to a console to perform the following functions: Configuring the switch using the CLI, Monitoring network statistics and errors.

Connecting the Management Interface

To prevent an IP address conflict, you must complete the initial configuration and establish an IP address for the switch.

Connecting Interface Ports to Other Devices

After you perform the initial configuration for the switch and create a management connection, you are ready to connect the interface ports on the switch to other devices.

Installing QSFP+ Transceivers

The QSFP+ transceiver module can have either a bail-clasp latch or a pull-tab latch.

CHAPTER 5 Replacing Components

Replacing a Fan Module

You can replace one of the three fan modules at a time while the switch is operating so long as you perform the replacement within one minute.

Replacing an AC Power Supply

You can replace a power supply with another supported power supply that has the same power source type (AC) and the same wattage rating as the other installed power supply.
