Component Power Requirements and Heat Dissipation

Consider heat dissipation when sizing the air-conditioning requirements for an installation. The power and heat associated with a Cisco MDS 9132T 32-Gbps 32-Port Fibre Channel Switch varies based on the following considerations:

  • The environment (temperature) outside the chassis

  • Internal chassis temperature

  • Any hardware component failure in the chassis

  • Average switching traffic levels

The following table lists the power requirements and heat dissipation for the components of the Cisco MDS 9132T 32-Gbps 32-Port Fibre Channel Switch.

SFP Transceiver Specifications

The Cisco MDS 9132T switch is compatible with SFP transceivers and cables that have LC connectors. Each transceiver must match the transceiver at the other end of the cable in terms of wavelength. The cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications to take place.

Cisco SFP transceivers support 850 to 1610 nm nominal wavelengths, depending upon the transceiver.

Use only Cisco SFP transceivers on the Cisco MDS 9132T switch. Each Cisco SFP transceiver is encoded with model information that enables the switch to verify that the SFP transceiver meets the requirements for the switch. For the list of supported SFP transceivers, see the Cisco MDS 9000 Series Compatibility Matrix.

Use only genuine Cisco SFP+ transceivers in Cisco MDS series switches. Each Cisco SFP+ transceiver is encoded with serial number, vendor name, and other parameters that enable Cisco NX-OS to verify that the transceiver meets the requirements of the switch. If discrepancies are found, the SFP+ will be allowed to function, if possible, but will cause a warning syslog message to be generated. Cisco TAC does not support switch ports populated with non-Cisco SFP+ transceivers.

For details about SFP transceivers see the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Pluggable Transceivers Data Sheet.

For information about safety, regulatory, and standards compliance, see the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco MDS 9000 Family.
