Installation Options with Rack-Mount Kits
The rack-mount kit enables you to install the switch into racks of varying depths. You can position the switch
with easy access to either the port connections or the fan and power supply modules.
You can install the switch using the following rack-mount options:
• Rack-mount kit (NXK-ACC-KIT-1RU) which you can order from Cisco. This option offers you easy
installation, greater stability, increased weight capacity, added accessibility, and improved removability
with front and rear removal.
• Rack-mount kit (N3K-C3064-ACC-KIT) which you can order from Cisco.
The rack or cabinet that you use must meet the requirements listed the in
General Requirements for Cabinets
section.
You are responsible for verifying that your rack and rack-mount hardware comply with the guidelines that
are described in this doc.
Note
Airflow Considerations
Installation Guidelines
When installing the switch, follow these guidelines:
• Ensure that there is adequate clearance space around the switch to allow for servicing the switch and for
adequate airflow.
• Ensure that the chassis can be adequately grounded. If the switch is not mounted in a grounded rack, we
recommend connecting the system ground on the chassis directly to an earth ground.
• Ensure that the site power meets the power requirements for the switch. If available, you can use an
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect against power failures.
