Overview
The Cisco Nexus 9372PX and 9372PX-E switches (N9K-C9372PX and N9K-C9372PX-E) are 1 rack unit
(RU) switches that support 48 1- and 10-Gigabit SFP+ downlink ports, six 40-Gigabit QSFP+ uplink ports,
one 100/1000 network management ports, one RS-232 console port for setting the initial switch configuration,
and two USB ports for saving or loading switch configurations. The chassis for these switches include the
following user-replaceable components:
•
Fan modules (four) with the following airflow choices:
◦
Port-side exhaust fan module with blue coloring (NXA-FAN-30CFM-F)
◦
Port-side intake fan module with burgundy coloring (NXA-FAN-30CFM-B)
•
Power supply modules (two
—
one for operations and one for redundancy [1+1]) with the following
choices:
◦
1200-W HVAC/HVDC dual-direction airflow power supply with white coloring (N9K-PUV-1200W)
◦
650-W port-side intake AC power supply with burgundy coloring (N9K-PAC-650W)
◦
650-W port-side exhaust AC power supply with blue coloring (N9K-PAC-650W-B)
◦
930-W port-side intake DC power supply with green coloring (UCSC-PSU-930WDC)
◦
930-W port-side exhaust DC power supply with gray coloring (UCS-PSU-6332-DC)
You can use the power supply types interchangeably so long as they have the same
direction of airflow as the fan modules. If you are using the 1200-W HVAC/HVDC
power supply, the power supply automatically uses the same airflow direction as used
by the other modules in the switch.
Note
This switch supports connections to the following Fabric Extenders (FEXs):
