CHAPTER 1
Overview
•Overview, on page 1
Overview
The Cisco Nexus 93360YC-FX2 switch (N9K-C93360YC-FX2) is a 2-rack unit (RU), fixed-port switch
designed for spine-leaf-APIC deployment in data centers. This switch has the following ports:
• 96 10-/25-Gigabit SFP28 ports
• 12 40/100-Gigabit QSFP28 ports
• Two management ports (one RJ-45 port and one SFP port)
• One console port
• 1 USB port
1-Gigabit QSA transceivers are not supported in uplink ports.
Note
This switch includes the following user-replaceable components:
• Fan modules (three) with the following airflow choices:
• Port-side exhaust fan module with blue coloring (NXA-FAN-160CFM-PE)
• Port-side intake fan module with burgundy coloring (NXA-FAN-160CFM-PI)
Each fan module has two rotors. The switch can function normally if one rotor
inside the any one fan module fails. In case of more than one rotor failure, the
switch will issue a warning and power down in 2 minute.
Note
• Power supply modules (two—One for operations and one for redundancy [1+1]) with the following
choices:
• 1200-W port-side exhaust AC power supply with blue coloring (NXA-PAC-1200W-PE)

• 1200-W port-side intake AC power supply with burgundy coloring (NXA-PAC-1200W-PI)
•1200-W HVAC/HVDC dual-direction airflow power supply with white coloring (N9K-PUV-1200W)
• 930-W port-side exhaust DC power supply with blue coloring (NXA-PDC-930W-PE)
• 930-W port-side intake DC power supply with burgundy coloring (NXA-PDC-930W-PI)
930-W DC power supply support 1+1 redundancy requires both of the following
conditions:
• Ambient temperature of 104°F (40℃) or less and
• Use of 3.5 W QSFP+ transceivers or passive QSFP cables
With higher temperatures or other optics, the switch requires both power supplies
for operations without power redundancy.
Note
Both power supplies are the same type. Do not mix AC, DC, or HVAC/HVDC
power supplies.
Note
All fan modules and power supplies must use the same airflow direction. If you
are using the 1200-W HVAC/HVDC power supplies, those power supplies
automatically use the same airflow direction as used by the fan modules.
Note
Deployment Scheme for SFP-10G-T-X Transceivers
The following figure shows the maximum configuration density of SFP-10G-T-X SFP+ transceivers for this
switch.
The following figure shows the switch features on the port side of the chassis.
