Chapter 3 Installing a Cisco Nexus 7009 Chassis
Preparing to Install the Switch
Required Tools
Before you install the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis into a rack, make sure that you have the following tools
and equipment:
•
Mechanical lift capable of lifting 300 pounds (136 kg)
•
Number 1 Phillips screwdriver with torque capability
•
3/16-inch flat-blade screwdriver
•
Crimping tool
•
Wire stripping tool
•
Tape measure and level
•
Grounding cable
Note
These tools and equipment do not ship with the chassis.
Additional tools and equipment, such as an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap, that you will also
need to install the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis, are included in the Cisco Nexus 7009 accessory kit. To see
what is included in the accessory kit, see the
“Cisco Nexus 7009 Switch Accessory and Optional Kits”
section on page C-3
.
Caution
When you handle the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis or its components, you must follow ESD protocol at all
times to prevent ESD damage. This protocol includes but is not limited to wearing an ESD wrist strap
that you connect to the earth ground.
Note
For a list of tools required to assemble and secure the rack or cabinet, see the documentation that the
manufacturer shipped with the rack or cabinet.
Installing a Rack or Cabinet
Before you install the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis, you must install a qualified two- or four-post, 19-inch
EIA data center rack (or a cabinet that contains such a rack) that meets the requirements listed in the
Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Site Preparation Guide
. To maximize safety, you should do the following for
the rack:
•
Bolt the rack to the concrete subfloor before moving the Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis onto it.
Warning
Stability hazard. The rack stabilizing mechanism must be in place, or the rack must be bolted to the
floor before you slide the unit out for servicing. Failure to stabilize the rack can cause the rack to tip
over.
Statement 1048
•
If the rack has bonded construction, connect it to the earth ground to enable you to easily ground the
system components that you install and to ground your ESD wrist strap. This step minimizes the
chance of electrostatic discharge when you handle ungrounded components before you install them.
