Dell EMC PowerEdge MX7000 - Cabling for Dual MX7000 with Fabric Switching Engines

Cabling for a dual PowerEdge MX7000 enclosure conguration
using Fabric Switching Engines
The following gure shows the external cabling for a multiple PowerEdge MX7000 enclosure conguration when the MX9116n Fabric
Switching Engines and MX7116n Fabric Expansion Modules are used. The Customer Network Link Aggregation is shown as an example as
the upper layer connection is not specied except that it must use an LACP enabled Link Aggregation (LAG). You can add more enclosures
(up to a maximum of 10) that connect back to the upper level devices in the infrastructure. Additional PowerEdge MX7000 enclosures
require only two MX7116n Fabric Expansion Modules whose ports appear as additional ports on the MX9116n Fabric Switching Engines on
the rst two PowerEdge MX7000 enclosures.
