Note
Before you begin
• Verify that your shipment is complete.
• Install your rack in a secure location.
Insert the airflow sleeve into the rack and attach it as follows:
a) Holding the airflow sleeve (N9K-AIRFLOW-SLV) with both hands, position it in front of the fan side of the chassis.
b) Holding the airflow sleeve level, insert screws (12-24 or 10-32, depending on the rack type) in each of the two front
rack-mount flanges (using a total of two screws) and into the cage nuts or threaded holes in the vertical rack-mounting
rails (see the following figure).
c) Tighten the 10-32 screws to 20 in-lb (2.26 N·m) or tighten the 12-24 screws to 30 in-lb (3.39 N·m).

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.
You supply the screws to mount the airflow sleeve.
