Page 9: Overview
• Overview, on page 1 Overview The Cisco Nexus 93600CD-GX switch (N9K-C93600CD-GX) is a 1-rack unit (RU), fixed-port switch designed for spine-leaf-APIC deployment in data centers. This switch has the following ports: • 28 10/40/100-Gigabit QSFP28 ports (ports 1-28) • 8 10/40/100/400-Gigabit QSFP-DD ports (ports 29-36) •... - Page 10 • 1100-W port-side exhaust DC power supply with blue coloring (NXA-PDC-1100W-PE) • 1100-W port-side intake DC power supply with burgundy coloring (NXA-PDC-1100W-PI) Note All fan modules and power supplies must use the same airflow direction.

Page 32: Preparing To Connect To Other Devices
Cisco equipment. In situations where long parallel cable runs cannot be separated by at least 3.3 feet (1 meter), we recommend that you shield any potential noise sources by housing them in a grounded metallic conduit. -
Page 33: Connecting Leaf Switches To Apics
Connecting Leaf Switches to APICs You must downlink one or two (recommended for redundancy) Cisco Nexus 9300 platform ACI-mode leaf switches to each Application Policy Infrastructure Controller (APIC) in your ACI fabric. The type of virtual interface card (VIC) installed on the APIC determines the types of interface cables that you can use to connect the leaf switches to the APICs. -
Page 34: Connecting Leaf Switches To Spine Switches
Connect the other end of the interface cable to a downlink port on a leaf switch. • For a Cisco 10GBASE-LR or -SR transceiver and cable, insert the transceiver into a downlink optical port on a leaf switch before connecting the cable to the transceiver. - Page 35 • 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 (such as: N9K-X9736PQ) • 32-port 100-Gigabit (such as: N9K-X9732C-EX) (supported by Cisco Nexus 9504 and 9508 modular switches) • 36-port 100-Gigabit (such as: N9K-X9736C-FX) Note You cannot include NX-OS line cards in the same chassis when running in ACI mode.

Page 39: Maintaining Transceivers And Optical Cables
Transceivers and fiber-optic cables must be kept clean and dust free to maintain high signal accuracy and prevent damage to the connectors. Contamination increases attenuation (loss of light) and should be below 0.35 dB. Cisco Nexus 93600CD-GX ACI-Mode Switch Hardware Installation Guide... - Page 40 • Inspect routinely for dust and damage. If you suspect damage, clean and then inspect fiber ends under a microscope to determine if damage has occurred. Cisco Nexus 93600CD-GX ACI-Mode Switch Hardware Installation Guide...
