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.
• When installing the NXK-ACC-KIT-1RU rack-mount kit, the distance between the outside face of
the front mounting rail and the outside face of the back mounting rail should be 25.37 to 35 inches
(64.43 to 88.9 cm) to allow for rear-bracket installation.
• Rack-mount kit (N3K-C3064-ACC-KIT) which you can order from Cisco.
• When installing the N3K-C3064-ACC-KIT rack-mount kit, the distance between the outside face
of the front mounting rail and the outside face of the back mounting rail should be 26.5 to 36 inches
(67.31 to 91.44 cm) to allow for rear-bracket installation.
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.
