Physical Specifications for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Chassis

The physical specifications differ for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series chassis depending on the model that you are installing and the type of installation you are doing (you can front mount all models but you can optionally do a center mount of the Cisco Nexus 7004 and 7009 chassis). Table 1 lists the physical specifications for each model and installation type.

1 Width is also the minimal clearance required between the two vertical mounting rails inside the rack or cabinet.
2 Front depth is also the minimal clearance required between the front mounting rails and the inside of the front of the rack or cabinet. For all switches, this includes 7 inches (17.8 cm) of space for cabling. For the Cisco Nexus 7009 center-mounted chassis, this distance also includes 6 inches of the chassis which is offset to the front by the center-mount bracket.
3 Rear depth is also the clearance required between the front-mounting rails and the inside of the rear of the rack or cabinet. For front mounted switches, this is the same as the depth of the chassis. For a center-mounted Cisco Nexus 7009 switch, this is 6 inches (15.2 cm) less than the depth of the chassis, which is offset to the front.
4 Height is also the clearance required between the top of the bottom support bracket and the top of the chassis that you are installing. If you are installing another chassis above this chassis, its bottom-support brackets must be positioned above this clearance area.

The weights and quantities are listed in the following tables:

  • Cisco Nexus 7004 switch (see Table 2)
  • Cisco Nexus 7009 switch (see Table 3)
  • Cisco Nexus 7010 switch (see Table 4)
  • Cisco Nexus 7018 switch (see Table 5)

The weights in these tables do not include the rack or cabinet that holds the chassis or the interface and power cables. For those weights, see the documentation provided by the manufacturers of those components.

Power Specifications for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Switches

The number of power supplies that a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch requires depends on the quantities and types of modules that you include in the switch chassis. the type of power supply unit that you are using, and the power redundancy mode that you are using.

The following topics explain how to calculate the switch power requirements and the amount of power available for each type of power supply configuration mode:

Power Requirements for Switch Components

To determine the power requirements of the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches, add the power requirements of each of its components. For each component, multiply the number of its modules by its maximum or typical power requirement. To find the quantities and power requirements for each Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch, see the following tables:

Power Supply Configuration Modes

You can configure one of the following power modes to either use the combined power provided by the installed power supplies or to provide power redundancy when there is a power loss:

  • Combined mode—Provides the maximum amount of available power by utilizing the combined power output from all installed power supplies for switch operations. This mode does not provide redundancy.
  • Power-supply redundancy mode—Allows you to replace a power supply during switch operations. All power supplies are active. The available power is calculated as the least amount of power available from all but one of the power supplies (N+1). The reserve power is the amount of power output by the power supply that can output the most power. For example, if three power supplies output 3 kW, 6 kW, and 6 kW, the available power is 9 kW (3 kW + 6 kW) and the reserve power is 6 kW.
  • Input source redundancy mode—Takes power from two electrical grids so that if one grid goes down, the other grid can provide the power needed by the switch. For the Cisco Nexus 7004 chassis, each grid powers half of the power supplies. For the Cisco Nexus 7009, 7010, and 7018 chassis, each grid powers half of each power supply (grid A is connected to the Input 1 receptacle on each power supply and grid B is connected to the Input 2 receptacle on each power supply). The available power is the amount of power output by the portions of the power supplies that are connected to the same grid. For example, if three power supplies are connected to a 110-V grid and a 220-V grid, each power supply outputs 1.2 kW for the 110-V grid and 3.0 kW for the 220-V grid. The available power would be 3.6 kW (1.2 kW + 1.2 kW + 1.2 kW) and the reserve power would be 9.0 kW (3.0 kW + 3.0 kW + 3.0 kW).
  • Full redundancy mode—Provides both power-supply redundancy and input-source redundancy. This mode allows you to replace a power supply without interrupting switch operations or continue powering the switch if one of two grids goes down. The available power is the lesser amount of output power for power supply redundancy or input source redundancy.

The amount of power available for use with your Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch depends on the number of power supplies, input voltage used, and the power mode used. To determine the amount of available power for the power supplies, see the following tables:

  • For the 3-kW AC power supplies, see Table 1
  • For the 6-kW AC power supplies, see Table 3
  • For the 7.5-kW AC power supplies, see Table 4
  • For the 3-kW DC power supplies, see Table 5
  • For the 6-kW DC power supplies, see Table 7
  • For the 3.5-kW HVAC/HVDC power supplies, see Table 2 and Table 6

Chassis Clearances

You must provide each Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch with adequate clearance for installation, maintenance, cabling, and airflow. Installation clearance includes the cold aisle spacing required in front of the rack or cabinet to allow you to move the switch with a mechanical lift to its rack or cabinet. Maintenance clearance is the hot or cold aisle spacing required to replace supervisor, I/O, fabric, fan, and power supply modules. Cabling clearance provides the required space in front of the chassis (often within a cabinet) for cables to bend and connect to the chassis. Airflow clearance is typically the spacing on the left or right of the chassis for side-to-side airflow into and out of the chassis. If a chassis has front-to-back airflow, it uses the maintenance clearance for airflow instead of airflow clearance on the sides of the chassis.

This section includes the following topics:

Cisco Nexus 7004 Chassis Clearances

The Cisco Nexus 7004 chassis requires front clearance for cable management and maintenance, right side clearance for cooling air intake, and an unobstructed rear for exhausting air to the hot aisle behind the chassis. For the front, the cable management frames require 7.5 inches (19.1 cm) of clearance in front of the mounting rails and an additional 26 inches (66.0 cm) in front of the cable management frames or the cabinet door for maintenance. If you install the chassis with the optional center-mount bracket in place of the standard front-mount bracket, you must add 5.7 inches (14.4 cm) to the front clearance in front of the mounting rails on the rack. For cabinet installations, we recommend a right-side clearance of 11 inches (27.9 cm) between the switch and the inside of the cabinet. For rack installations, we recommend a right-side clearance of either 6 inches (15.2 cm) between racks or 11 inches (27.9 cm) between the chassis and a wall. The rear of the chassis must be unobstructed and open to the hot aisle in back of the switch for airflow exhaust. Clearances Required for the Cisco Nexus 7004 in a Four-Post Rack with Front-Mount Brackets shows the required clearances for a chassis in a four-post rack with a front-mount installation. Clearances Required for the Cisco Nexus 7004 in a Two-Post Rack with Front-Mount Brackets shows the required clearances for a chassis in a two-post rack with a front-mount installation. Clearances Required for the Cisco Nexus 7004 in a Two-Post Rack with Center-Mount Brackets shows the required clearances for chassis in a two-post rack with a center-mount installation.

Facility Cooling Requirements

The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches dissipate considerable power that generates much heat. The following is the heat dissipation requirement for these switches:

  • Cisco Nexus 7004 dissipates up to 9737 BTUs per hour
  • Cisco Nexus 7009 dissipates up to 28,101 BTUs per hour
  • Cisco Nexus 7010 dissipates up to 35,162 BTUs per hour
  • Cisco Nexus 7018 dissipates up to 51,195 BTUs per hour

Chassis Airflow

The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches are designed to work in a hot-aisle/cold-aisle environment using front-to-back, side-to-side, or side-to-back airflow. Each of these switches uses one of the following airflow directions:

  • The Cisco Nexus 7004 switch uses side-to-back airflow to cool its modules and front-to-back airflow to cool its power supplies as shown in Airflow for the Cisco Nexus 7004 Chassis. This switch requires right-side clearance for airflow into the chassis.
  • The Cisco Nexus 7009 switch uses side-to-side airflow to cool its modules and front-to-back airflow to cool its power supplies as shown in Airflow for the Cisco Nexus 7009 Chassis. This switch requires right- and left-side clearance for airflow into and out of the chassis.
  • The Cisco Nexus 7010 switch uses front-to-back airflow as shown in Airflow for the Cisco Nexus 7010 Chassis.
  • The Cisco Nexus 7018 switch uses side-to-side airflow to cool its modules and front-to-back airflow to cool its power supply units as shown in Airflow for the Cisco Nexus 7018 Chassis. This switch requires right- and left-side clearance for airflow into and out of the chassis.

For the Cisco Nexus 7004 switch, you can route cables on the left or right side without interfering with coolant airflow, which goes in on the right side. Be sure to otherwise leave the right side unblocked so that cool air can flow from the cold aisle in the front to the chassis.

To allow for the Cisco Nexus 7009 and 7018 switches to take in air from the cold aisle and floor on the right side, you should route cables on the left front side of the switch. If necessary, you can route cables on the upper right front side of the chassis, which leaves the lower right side open to cooling air from the cold aisle in front of the chassis. By having the cables on the left side and leaving the left rear side unobstructed, the exhaust is directed to the hot aisle in back.

For the clearances required on each side of the switch, see the Chassis Clearances.
