Cable and Port Specifications

This appendix provides cable and port specifications for the Fabric Extender (FEX) and includes the following sections:

Supported Power Cords and Plugs

Each power supply has a separate power cord. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for connection to a power distribution unit that has IEC 60320 C19 outlet receptacles. The jumper power cords, for use in cabinets, are available as an optional alternative to the standard power cords.

Noteblank.gif For N2200-PDC-350W-B or N2200-PDC-400W DC power supplies:

- The terminal block that is used (2-position) accepts wire sizes 22AWG-14AWG.

- For the maximum input current of approximately 15A, a 18AWG wire meets minimum requirements. 16AWG adds some margin, and this is recommended.

- There is no earth ground connection on this input terminal block, thus the earth grounding is provided by the system being grounded.

Power Cords

The standard power cords have an IEC C19 connector on the end that plugs into the device. The optional jumper power cords have an IEC C19 connector on the end that plugs into the device and an IEC C20 connector on the end that plugs into an IEC C19 outlet receptacle.

note.gif

Noteblank.gif Only the regular power cords or jumper power cords provided with the device are supported.

note.gif

Noteblank.gif If you do not order the optional power cord with the system, you are responsible for selecting the appropriate power cord for the product. Using a non-compatible power cord with this product may result in electrical safety hazard. Orders delivered to Argentina, Brazil, and Japan must have the appropriate power cord ordered with the system.

Table C-1 lists the AC power cords for the Cisco Nexus Fabric Extender and provides their lengths in feet and meters.
