Platform resiliency
Power supplies
Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches support dual field-replaceable power supplies (Figure 3). Each switch
ships with one default power supply, and a second identical power supply can be purchased with the initial
order or can be added later. The second power supply can provide redundancy or additional power to PoE+
ports as needed.
Cisco Catalyst 9200CX Series HVDC models can be powered by high voltage DC as well as line voltage AC
with its default power supply. These switches support high efficiency and low energy consumption when
connected to DC micro grid by avoiding multiple AC-DC conversions. The compatibility with AC also provides
flexibility and investment protection for moving to DC power in the future.
Intelligent PoE+
● IEEE 802.3at PoE+ (up to 30W per port) is supported on Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches to lower
the total cost of ownership for deployments that incorporate Cisco IP phones, Cisco Aironet wireless
access points, or other standards-compliant PoE+ end devices. PoE+ removes the need to supply wall
power to PoE-enabled devices and eliminates the cost of adding electrical cabling and circuits that
would otherwise be necessary in IP phone and WLAN deployments. With Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches, PoE+ power allocation is dynamic, and power mapping scales up to a maximum of 1440W of
PoE+ power.
● IEEE 802.3bt Class 6 and Cisco UPOE (up to 60W per port) is supported on Catalyst 9200CX Series
mGig model. This facilitates delivery of network power to devices requiring higher power.
● PoE Powered Device (PD) - Catalyst 9200CX-12T-2X2G can be powered through the uplink with IEEE
802.3bt class 6 or UPOE+ power from upstream switch.
● Perpetual PoE is supported on Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches, and maintains the PoE+ power
during a switch reload. This is important for critical endpoints such as medical devices and for Internet of
Things (IoT) endpoints such as PoE-powered lights, so that there is no disruption during a switch reboot.
● Fast PoE: When power is restored to a switch, Fast PoE starts delivering power to endpoints without
waiting for the operating system to fully load, thereby speeding up the time for the endpoint to start up.

Software
Platform software benefits
Cisco IOS XE
Cisco IOS XE Software opens a completely new paradigm in network configuration, operation, and monitoring
through network automation. Cisco’s automation solution is open, standards-based, and extensible across the
entire lifecycle of a network device. The various automation mechanisms are outlined below.
● Automated device provisioning is the ability to automate the process of upgrading software images and
installing configuration files on Cisco Catalyst switches when they are being deployed in the network for
the first time. Cisco provides turnkey solutions such as Plug and Play and Preboot Execution Environment
(PXE) that enable an effortless and automated deployment.
● API-driven configuration is available with modern network switches such as Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches. It supports a wide range of automation features and provides robust open APIs over NETCONF
and RESTCONF using YANG data models for external tools, both off the shelf and custom built, to
automatically provision network resources.
● Granular visibility enables model-driven telemetry to stream data from a switch to a destination. The
data to be streamed is identified through subscription to a data set in a YANG model. The subscribed
data set is streamed to the destination at specified intervals. Additionally, Cisco IOS XE enables the push
model. It provides near-real-time monitoring of the network, leading to quick detection and rectification
of failures. Cloud monitoring for Catalyst is also available.
● Seamless software upgrades and patching supports OS resilience. On Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
switches Cisco IOS XE supports cold patching with reboot, which provides fixes for critical bugs and
security vulnerabilities between regular maintenance releases. This support lets you add patches without
having to wait for the next maintenance release. Cold patching requires the switch to be rebooted after
patching to allow the changes to take effect.

● Trustworthy solutions built with Cisco Trust Anchor Technologies provide a highly secure foundation
for Cisco products. With Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches, these technologies enable hardware and
software authenticity assurance for supply chain trust and strong mitigation against man-in-the-middle
attacks that compromise software and firmware. Trust Anchor capabilities include image signing, Secure
Boot, and Cisco Trust Anchor module.
● High availability: Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches support high-availability features, including the
following:
◦ Cross-stack EtherChannel provides the ability to configure Cisco EtherChannel technology across
different members of the stack for high resiliency.
◦ IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) provides rapid spanning tree convergence
independent of spanning tree timers and also offers the benefit of Layer 2 load balancing and
distributed processing.
◦ Per-VLAN Rapid Spanning Tree (PVRST+) allows rapid spanning tree (IEEE 802.1w) reconvergence on
a per-VLAN spanning tree basis, providing simpler configuration than MSTP. In both MSTP and
PVRST+ modes, stacked units behave as a single spanning tree node.
◦ Switch-port auto-recovery (“err-disable” recovery) automatically attempts to reactivate a link that is

disabled because of a network error.
◦ The Catalyst 9200 Series platform delivers the best SSO resiliency architecture in a stackable solution
with sub-50-ms failover.
The Foundation of Software-Defined Access

◦ Fast issue resolution and network remediation

● Plug and Play (PnP) enabled: A simple, secure, unified, and integrated offering to ease new branch or
campus device rollouts or updates to an existing network
Cloud Security
Umbrella Integration
● Umbrella Integration: Small to midsize networks reliant on managed service providers can now host
Cisco Umbrella agent directly on their Catalyst 9200 series switches. This allows the business to easily
customize their DNS filtering policies to prevent BYOD or IoT guest or corporate users from accessing
malicious or inappropriate websites, without having to rely on the MSP to push the policies out. It also
lets them optimize use of bandwidth by allowing direct cloud access for trusted apps. Requires Cisco
DNA-Advantage License and Umbrella License per device.
Full Flexible NetFlow

● Full Flexible NetFlow (FNF): Cisco IOS FNF is the next generation in flow visibility technology. It enables
optimization of the network infrastructure, reduces operation costs, and improves capacity planning and
security incident detection with increased flexibility and scalability. Catalyst 9200 Series switches are
capable of up to 16,000 flow entries on 48-port,24, 12 and 8 port models.
QoS
● Superior QoS: Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches offer Gigabit Ethernet speeds with intelligent
services that keep traffic flowing smoothly, even at 10 times the normal network speed. Industry-leading
mechanisms for cross-stack marking, classification, and scheduling deliver superior performance for
data, voice, and video traffic at wire speed. Superior QoS includes granular wireless bandwidth
management and fair sharing, 802.1p Class of Service (CoS) and Differentiated Services Code Point
(DSCP) field classification, Shaped Round Robin (SRR) scheduling, Committed Information Rate (CIR),
and eight egress queues per port.

Smart operation
WebUI
WebUI is an embedded GUI-based device-management tool that provides the ability to provision the device, to
simplify device deployment and manageability, and to enhance the user experience. It comes with the default
image, so there is no need to enable anything or install any license on the device. You can use WebUI to build
configurations, and to monitor and troubleshoot the device without having CLI expertise.
RFID tags
Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches have an embedded RFID tag that facilitates easy asset and inventory
management using commercial RFID readers.
Blue beacon
Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches support both front and back blue beacon LEDs for easy identification of the
switch being accessed.
Efficient switch operation
Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches provide optimum power saving with Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) on the
RJ-45 ports and low-power operations for industry best-in-class power management and power consumption
capabilities. The ports support reduced power modes so that ports not in use can move into a lower power
utilization state. Other efficient switch operation features are as follows:
● Per-port power consumption command allows customers to specify a maximum power setting on an
individual port.
● Per-port PoE power sensing measures actual power being drawn, enabling more intelligent control of
powered devices. The PoE MIB provides proactive visibility into power usage and allows you to set
different power-level thresholds.
Bluetooth ready
Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches have hardware support to connect a Bluetooth dongle to your switch,
enabling you to use this wireless interface as an IP management port interface. The port can be used for
configuration and troubleshooting using WebUI or the Command-Line Interface (CLI), and to transfer images
and configurations.

RIPng, and Open Shortest Path First [OSPF], Routed Access) are supported for small network routing
applications with the Network Essentials stack. Equal-cost routing facilitates Layer 3 load balancing and
redundancy across the stack.
● Advanced IP unicast routing protocols (including Full [OSPF], Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing
Protocol [EIGRP], and Intermediate System-to-Intermediate System Version 4 [IS-ISv4]) are supported
for load balancing and for constructing scalable LANs. Ipv6 routing (using OSPFv3 and EIGRPv6) is
supported in hardware for maximum performance.
● Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) for IP multicast routing is supported, including PIM sparse mode
(PIM SM), and Source-Specific Multicast (SSM).
● IPv6 addressing is supported on interfaces with appropriate show commands for monitoring and
troubleshooting.

Managing licenses with Smart Accounts
Creating Smart Accounts by using the Cisco Smart Software Manager (Cisco SSM) enables you to order
devices and licensing packages and also manage your software licenses from a centralized website. You can
set up Cisco SSM to receive daily email alerts and to be notified of expiring add-on licenses that you want to
renew.
You must order an add-on license in order to purchase a switch. When the license term expires, you can either
renew the add-on license to continue using it or deactivate the add-on license and then reload the switch to
continue operating with the base license capabilities.
Both the base and add-on licenses are also available for a 90-day evaluation period. An evaluation license is
activated temporarily, without purchase. An expired evaluation license cannot be reactivated after reload.
Note: It is not required to deploy Cisco Catalyst Center, just to use one of the above packages.
Table 11 shows the features included in the Network Essentials and Advantage packages.

port uplink ports
10/100/1000 Ports
The 10/100/1000 ports use RJ-45 connectors with Ethernet pinouts. The maximum cable length is 328 feet
(100 meters). The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires twisted pair (UTP) cable of Category 5
or higher. The 10BASE-T traffic can use Category 3 cable or higher.
PoE and PoE+ Ports

The PoE and PoE+ ports provide the following functionality:
• PoE/PoE+ ports: Support for IEEE 802.3af-compliant powered devices (up to 15.4W PoE per port) and
support for IEEE 802.3at-compliant powered devices (up to 30W PoE+ per port).
• Support for pre-standard Cisco powered devices.
• Configurable support for Cisco intelligent power management, including enhanced power negotiation,
power reservation, and per-port power policing.

Product Overview
Multigigabit Ethernet Ports
See the Power Supply Modules, on page 9 for the power supply matrix that defines the available PoE and
PoE+ power per port. The PoE circuit has been evaluated to meet the limits for Limited Power Source (LPS)
per Annex Q in IEC/UL 62368-1. It has also been evaluated as a class ES1, PS2.
Multigigabit Ethernet Ports

The Multigigabit (mGig) Ethernet ports can be configured to auto-negotiate multiple speeds on switch ports.
The ports support 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, and 5 Gbps speeds on Category 5e (Cat5e) cables, and up to
10 Gbps over Category 6 (Cat6) and Category 6A (Cat6A) cables up to a maximum of 100 m. 10Gbps over
Cat6 cable is limited for distances up to 55 m. For 10GBASE-T, Cat6a can support up to 100 m when
transmitting 10Gbps. Due to the extra bandwidth requirements from the cable, additional limitations exist for
best performance. These limitations include, but are not limited to cable reach, cable bundling parameters
(tightness, frequency, number of cables, speed with respect to each cable) and cable termination quality.
The 802.3 channel requirements for interoperability typically limit the cable reach to 100 m, but other factors
can shorten this reach. In addition, for both Cisco UPOE and Cisco UPOE+ and data integrity, the 100 m total
should not include more than 10 m total stranded or patch cable. Therefore, it is assumed that a 100 m link
includes a maximum of two 5 m patch cables of the appropriate category, and 90 m of plenum or riser (i.e.
solid copper core) cables. Ensure that you follow the TIA guidance on cable dressing.
It is recommended to test the complete link using an appropriate cable tester for 10 Gbps as well as 5 Gbps
links. However, even if the link passes cable testing, it is still prone to occasional errors due to aggressors in
the bundle, and physical disturbances of the cables. As an example of bundling limitations, for 5 Gbps with
cat5e cable, only a total 45 m bundled length is supported; the remaining 55 m should be unbundled. For
bundling, follow Cisco Guidelines and Best Practices for the Installation and Maintenance of Data Networking
Equipment which recommends the use of Velcro ties every 1 to 2 m for bundled sections.
If you are upgrading the network gear but reusing the existing cable plant, note that at speeds above 2.5 Gbps
traditional Cat5e channel specifications do not support full 100 m reach. To ensure 5 Gbps link speeds, we
recommend using Cat6a cabling. For more information, see the Whitepaper from NBASE-T alliance, which
has now merged with Ethernet Alliance, archived at
https://archive.nbaset.ethernetalliance.org/library/white-paper-2/.
Note Multigigabit ports do not support half duplex mode. Use full duplex mode.
Management Ports
The management ports connect the switch to a PC running Microsoft Windows or to a terminal server.
• Ethernet management port. See Ethernet Management Port, on page 12.
• RJ-45 console port (EIA/TIA-232). See RJ-45 Console Port, on page 13.
• USB mini-Type B console port (5-pin connector).
The 10/100/1000 Ethernet management port connection uses a standard RJ-45 crossover or straight-through
cable. The RJ-45 console port connection uses the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 female cable. The USB console
port connection uses a USB Type A to 5-pin mini-Type B cable. The USB console interface speeds are the
same as the RJ-45 console interface speeds.

5
Product Overview
USB Type A Port
If you use the USB mini-Type B console port, the Cisco Windows USB device driver must be installed on
any PC connected to the console port (for operation with Microsoft Windows). Mac OS X or Linux do not
require special drivers.
The 4-pin mini-Type B connector resembles the 5-pin mini-Type B connectors. They are not compatible. Use
only the 5-pin mini-Type B.
Figure 1: USB Mini-Type B Port
This illustration shows a 5-pin mini-Type B USB port.
With the Cisco Windows USB device driver, you can connect and disconnect the USB cable from the console
port without affecting Windows HyperTerminal operations.
The console output always goes to both the RJ-45 and the USB console connectors, but the console input is
active on only one of the console connectors at any one time. The USB console takes precedence over the
RJ-45 console. When a cable is connected into the USB console port, the RJ-45 console port becomes inactive.
Conversely, when the USB cable is disconnected from the USB console port, the RJ-45 port becomes active.
You can use the command-line interface (CLI) to configure an inactivity timeout which reactivates the RJ-45
console if the USB console has been activated and no input activity has occurred on the USB console for a
specified time.
After the USB console deactivates due to inactivity, you cannot use the CLI to reactivate it. Disconnect and
reconnect the USB cable to reactivate the USB console. For information on using the CLI to configure the
USB console interface, see the Software Configuration Guide.
USB Type A Port

The USB Type A port provides access to external USB flash devices (also known as thumb drives or USB
keys).
The port supports Cisco USB flash drives with capacities from 128 MB to 8 GB. USB devices with port
densities of 128 MB, 256 MB, 1 GB, 4 GB, and 8 GB are supported. When combined with stacking, you can
upgrade other switches in the stack from an USB key inserted in any switch within the stack. Cisco IOS
software provides standard file system access to the flash device: read, write, erase, and copy, as well as the
ability to format the flash device with a FAT file system.
It provides you with the ability to automatically upgrade the internal flash with the USB drive's configuration
and image for emergency switch recovery using USB auto-upgrade. This feature checks the internal flash for
a bootable image and configuration and if either image or the configuration is not available, then the USB
drive is checked for boot images and configuration. If the boot image and configuration are available, these
are copied to flash for the reboot.
Uplink Ports
The Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series switches support both fixed uplinks and modular uplinks. The C9200 switch
models support modular uplinks with one hot-swappable network module that provides uplink ports to connect
to other devices.
The fixed uplink ports on C9200L switch models support the following types of transceiver modules.
• 4x1G ports that support 1G SFP modules.

6
Product Overview
Uplink Ports
• 4x10G ports that support either 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ modules.

The switch has a built-in, front-facing, passive RFID tag that uses UHF RFID technology and requires an
RFID reader with compatible software. It provides auto-identification capabilities for asset management and
tracking. The RFID tags are compatible with the Generation 2 GS1 EPC Global Standard and are ISO 18000-6C
compliant. They operate in the 860- to 960-MHz UHF band. For more information, see Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) on Cisco Catalyst 9000 Family Switches White Paper.
StackWise Ports
StackWise ports are used to connect switches in StackWise stacking configurations. The switch ships with a
0.5-meter StackWise cable that you can use to connect the StackWise ports. For more information on StackWise
cables, see Connecting to the StackWise Ports, on page 41.
Caution Use only approved cables, and connect only to similar Cisco equipment. Equipment might be damaged if
connected to nonapproved Cisco cables or equipment.
Power Supply Modules

The switch has a field replaceable main AC power supply module and a redundant hot-swappable field
replaceable AC power supply module. The switch is powered through one or two internal power supply
modules. In switches with PoE capability, the redundant power supply can also be used for extra PoE power.
Following are the power supply modules supported on Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Switches:

9
Product Overview
• PWR-C5-125WAC
• PWR-C5-600WAC
• PWR-C5-1KWAC
• PWR-C6-125WAC
• PWR-C6-600WAC
• PWR-C6-1KWAC
The switch has two internal power supply module slots. You can use two AC power supply modules or one
power supply module and a blank module (PWR-C5-BLANK).
The switch can operate with either one or two active power supply modules.
Switch Models, on page 1 shows the default power supply modules that ship with each switch model. All
power supply modules (except the blank modules) have internal fans. All switches ship with a blank power
supply module in the second power supply slot. Each AC power supply module has a power cord
(CAB-TA-XXX) for connection to an AC power outlet.
Caution Do not operate the switch with one power supply module slot empty. For proper chassis cooling, both power
supply module slots must be populated with either a power supply or a blank module.
The power supply modules are autoranging units that support input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. The
output voltage range is 12 to 12.5 V for 125W power supply and 54 to 56 V for 600W and 1000W power
supplies.
All the PoE-enabled switches when installed with both the power supplies support full PoE+; 1440W on a
48-port switch and 740W on a 24-port switch. The partial PoE-enabled switches support only 600W power
supply providing a PoE budget of 370W. If the switch is installed with one power supply, the available POE
budget is 370W and 740W, if there are two power supplies installed.
The following tables show the PoE available and PoE requirements for PoE switch models.

Site Requirements
• Access to ports is sufficient for unrestricted cabling.

• AC power cord can reach from the AC power outlet to the connector on the switch rear panel.
• The SFP/SFP+ module minimum bend radius and connector length is met. See the SFP/SFP+ module
documentation for more information.
• Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting
fixtures. Make sure that the cabling is safely away from other devices that might damage the cables.
• Make sure power-supply modules and fan modules are securely inserted in the chassis before moving
the switch.
• Airflow around the switch and through the vents is unrestricted. For more information, see Air Flow.
• For copper connections on Ethernet ports, cable lengths from the switch to connected devices can be up
to 328 feet (100 meters).
• Temperature around the unit does not exceed 113°F (45°C). If the switch is installed in a closed or
multirack assembly, the temperature around it might be greater than normal room temperature. For more
information, see Temperature.
• Humidity around the switch does not exceed 95 percent. For more information, see Humidity.
• Altitude at the installation site is not greater than 10,000 feet. For more information, see Altitude.
• Cooling mechanisms, such as fans and blowers in the switch, can draw dust and other particles causing
contaminant buildup inside the chassis, which can result in system malfunction. You must install this
equipment in an environment as free from dust and foreign conductive material (such as metal flakes
from construction activities) as possible. For more information, see Air Quality and Corrosion.
For more information on choosing a location for the switch installation, see Site Requirements.
Note The illustrations used in this section shows a C9200L switch. The C9200 switch installation is similar to
C9200L, follow the same steps for installing C9200 switches.
Site Requirements
Planning a proper location for the switch and layout of the equipment rack or wiring closet is essential for
successful system operation. These sections describe some of the basic site requirements that you should be
aware of as you prepare to install your switch, including the following:
• Environmental factors can adversely affect the performance and longevity of your system.
• Install the switch in an enclosed, secure area, ensuring that only qualified personnel have access to the
switch and control of the environment.
• Equipment that is placed too closely together or that is inadequately ventilated may cause system
over-temperature conditions, leading to premature component failure.
• Poor equipment placement can make chassis panels inaccessible and difficult to maintain.
• The switch requires a dry, clean, well-ventilated, and air-conditioned environment.

18
Temperature
• To ensure normal operation, maintain ambient airflow. If the airflow is blocked or restricted, or if the
intake air is too warm, an over-temperature condition may occur. The switch environmental monitor may
then shut down the system to protect the system components.
• Multiple switches can be rack mounted with little or no clearance above and below the chassis. However,
when mounting a switch in a rack with other equipment, or when placing it on the floor near other
equipment, ensure that the exhaust from other equipment does not blow into the air intake vent of the
switch chassis.
Temperature
Temperature extremes may cause a system to operate at reduced efficiency and cause a variety of problems,
including premature aging and failure of chips, and failure of mechanical devices. Extreme temperature
fluctuations may also cause chips to become loose in their sockets. Observe the following guidelines:
• Ensure that the chassis has adequate ventilation.
• Do not place the chassis within a closed-in wall unit or on top of cloth, which can act as thermal insulation.
• Do not place the chassis where it will receive direct sunlight, particularly in the afternoon.
• Do not place the chassis next to a heat source of any kind, including heating vents.
• Adequate ventilation is particularly important at high altitudes. Make sure that all the slots and openings
on the system remain unobstructed, especially the fan vent on the chassis.
• Clean the installation site at regular intervals to avoid buildup of dust and debris, which may cause a
system to overheat.
• If system is exposed to abnormally low temperatures, allow a two hour warm up period, in ambient
temperature no lower than 32°F (0 °C) before turning on.
Failure to observe these guidelines may damage the chassis' internal components.
Air Flow
The switch is designed to be installed in an environment where there is a sufficient volume of air available to
cool the supervisor engines, modules, and power supplies. If there are any constraints with regard to the free
flow of air through the chassis, or if the ambient air temperature is elevated, the switch environmental monitor
may then shut down the system to protect the system components.
To maintain proper air circulation through the switch chassis, we recommend that you maintain a minimum
space of 6 inches (15 cm) between a wall and the chassis and power supply unit air intakes or a wall and the
chassis and power supply unit hot air exhausts. In situations where the switch chassis are installed in adjacent
racks, you should allow a minimum space of 12 inches (30.5 cm) between the air intake of one chassis and
the hot air exhaust of another chassis. Failure to maintain adequate spacing between chassis may cause the
switch chassis that is drawing in the hot exhaust air to overheat and fail.
If you are installing your switch in an enclosed or partially enclosed rack, we strongly recommend that you
verify that your site meets the following guidelines:
• Verify that the ambient air temperature within the enclosed or partially enclosed rack is within the chassis
operating temperature limits. After installing the chassis in the rack, power up the chassis and allow the
chassis temperature to stabilize (approximately 2 hours).

19
Humidity
Measure the ambient air temperature at the chassis air intake grill by positioning an external temperature
probe 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the chassis left side, and centered on the chassis both horizontally and
vertically.
Measure the ambient air temperature at the power supply unit air intake grill by positioning an external
temperature probe 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from the chassis front, centered on the power supply unit section
located above the card slots.
• If the ambient intake air temperature is less than 109°F (45°C) at altitudes of 6,000 feet and below,
the rack meets the intake air temperature criterion. At altitudes above that threshold and up to 10,000
feet (3000 m), the air intake should not exceed 104°F (40°C).
• If the ambient intake air temperature exceeds this recommendation, the system may experience
minor temperature alarms and increase fan speeds in response.
• If the ambient intake air temperature equals or is greater than 131°F (55°C), the system may
experience a major temperature alarm with maximum fan speeds in response. If ambient temperature
continues to increase, system will respond with protective shut down.
• Plan ahead. A switch that is currently installed in an enclosed or partially enclosed rack might meet
ambient air temperature and air flow requirements at present. However, if you add more chassis to the
rack or more modules to a chassis in the rack, the additional heat generated might cause the ambient air
temperature at the chassis or power supply unit inlets to exceed recommended conditions which may
trigger thermal alarms.
If installation conditions for inlet temperature and airflow are marginal or not fully met, activate the fan
tray’s NEBS mode, which has more aggressive programming to address restricted spacing and elevated
ambient temperatures. This should result in reduced thermal alarms along with greater acoustic noise
and increased power consumption associated with higher fan speeds.
Humidity
High-humidity conditions may cause moisture to enter the system, and cause corrosion of internal components
and degradation of properties such as electrical resistance, thermal conductivity, physical strength, and size.
Extreme moisture buildup inside the system may result in electrical short circuit, which may cause serious
damage to the system. Each system is rated for storage and operation in 10 to 95 percent relative humidity,
non-condensing with a humidity gradation of 10 percent per hour. Buildings in which climate is controlled
by air-conditioning in the warmer months and by heat during the colder months usually maintain an acceptable
level of humidity for system equipment. However, if a system is located in an unusually humid location, a
dehumidifier should be used to maintain the humidity within an acceptable range.
Altitude
Operating a system at high altitude (low pressure) reduces the efficiency of forced and convection cooling
and may result in electrical problems related to arcing and corona effects. This condition may also cause sealed
components with internal pressure, such as electrolytic capacitors, to fail or perform at reduced efficiency.
Dust and Particles

Fans cool power supplies and system components by drawing in room-temperature air and exhausting heated
air out through various openings in the chassis. However, fans also ingest dust and other particles, causing

20
Air Quality
contaminant buildup in the system and increased internal chassis temperature. A clean operating environment
can greatly reduce the negative effects of dust and other particles, which act as insulators and interfere with
the mechanical components in the system.
The standards listed below provide guidelines for acceptable working environments and acceptable levels of
suspended particulate matter:
• National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) Type 1
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) IP-20
Air Quality
Dust is everywhere and often invisible to the naked eye. It consists of fine particles in the air that originate
from various sources, such as soil dust lifted by weather, from volcanic eruptions, or pollution. Dust at an
installation site may contain small amounts of textile, paper fibers, or minerals from outdoor soil. It may also
contain natural contaminants, such as chlorine from the marine environment and industrial contaminants such
as sulfur. Ionized dust and debris are dangerous and get attracted to electronic equipment.
The accumulation of dust and debris on electronic equipment has the following adverse effects:
• It increases the operating temperature of the equipment. According to the Arrhenius effect, an increase
in the operating temperature leads to a decrease in reliability and life of the equipment.
• The moisture and corrosive elements that are present in the dust can corrode the electronic or mechanical
components and cause premature board failure.
These adverse effects are further accelerated by the presence of fans in the data networking equipment that
ingest dust and other particles into the equipment. Higher the volume of air that is generated by the fans for
cooling, the higher the quantity of dust and particulates that get deposited and trapped inside the equipment.
Remove or minimize the presence of dust and particulates at the installation site by following the guidelines
mentioned in ANSI 71-04-2013 regulations.
Note In addition to the guidelines mentioned in ANSI 71-04-2013 regulations, follow all applicable guidelines as
per site conditions to remove or minimize other contaminants.
Corrosion
Corrosion is a chemical reaction that occurs between electronic components and gases which results in metal
deterioration. Corrosion attacks edge connectors, pin connectors, IC plug-in sockets, wirewraps, and all other
metal components. Depending on the type and concentration level of the corrosive gases, performance
degradation of the components occurs either rapidly or over a period of time. It also leads to blocked currents,
brittle connection points, and overheated electrical systems. Corrosion by-products form insulating layers on
circuits and causes electronic failure, short circuits, pitting, and metal loss.
A type of corrosion known as creep corrosion, that primarily affects PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly)
occurs when the PCBA is subjected to a harsh, and sulfur-rich (hydrogen sulfide) end-use environment over
a prolonged period of time. The corrosion begins on certain exposed metals, such as copper and silver, and
then creeps along the remaining metal surface either causing electrical short circuits or creating holes. Creep
corrosion also occurs on electronic components such as resistors and PCBs.

21
EMI and Radio Frequency Interference
To prevent corrosion, remove or minimize the presence of dust and particulates at the installation site by
following the guidelines mentioned in ANSI 71-04-2013 regulations.
Figure 6: A PCB with Corrosion on its Metal Contacts
EMI and Radio Frequency Interference

Electro-Magnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) from a system can adversely
affect devices such as radio and television (TV) receivers operating near the system. Radio frequencies
emanating from a system can also interfere with cordless and low-power telephones. Conversely, RFI from
high-power telephones can cause spurious characters to appear on the system monitor. RFI is defined as any
EMI with a frequency above 10 kilohertz (kHz). This type of interference can travel from the system to other
devices through the power cable and power source, or through the air in the form of transmitted radio waves.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) publishes specific regulations to limit the amount of harmful
interference emitted by computing equipment. Each system meets these FCC regulations. To reduce the
possibility of EMI and RFI, follow these guidelines:
• Always operate the system with the chassis covers installed.
• Ensure that all chassis slots are covered by a metal filler bracket and that an unused power supply bay
has a metal cover plate installed.
• Ensure that the screws on all peripheral cable connectors are securely fastened to their corresponding
connectors on the back of the chassis.

22
Shock and Vibration
• Always use shielded cables with metal connector shells for attaching peripherals to the system.
When wires are run for any significant distance in an electromagnetic field, interference can occur between
the field and the signals on the wires. This fact has two implications for the construction of plant wiring:
• Bad wiring practice can result in radio interference emanating from the plant wiring.
• Strong EMI, especially when it is caused by lightning or radio transmitters, can destroy the signal drivers
and receivers in the chassis, and even create an electrical hazard by conducting power surges through
lines into equipment.
Note To predict and provide a remedy for strong EMI, consult experts in RFI.
If you use twisted-pair cable in your plant wiring, include a good distribution of grounding conductors to
reduce EMI. If you exceed the recommended distances, use a high-quality twisted-pair cable with one ground
conductor for each data signal when applicable.
If the wires exceed the recommended distances, or if wires pass between buildings, give special consideration
to the effect of a lightning strike in your vicinity. The electromagnetic pulse caused by lightning or other
high-energy phenomena can easily couple enough energy into unshielded conductors to destroy electronic
devices. If you have had problems of this sort in the past, you may want to consult experts in electrical surge
suppression and shielding.
Caution The intra-building ports (Copper Based Ethernet Ports) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for
connection to inside a building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. If the intra-building ports of the equipment
or subassembly is metalically connected to interfaces that connect to the Out Side Plant (OSP) or its wiring,
the metallic-connection MUST NOT be more than 6 meters (approximately 20 feet). These interfaces are
designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2, 4, or 4a ports as described in GR-1089-CORE) and
require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection
in order to connect these interfaces metallically to an OSP wiring system.
Shock and Vibration

The equipment complies with the Earthquake, Office, and Transportation Vibration, and Equipment Handling
Criteria of GR-63-CORE.
Power Source Interruptions

Systems are especially sensitive to variations in voltage supplied by the AC power source. Overvoltage,
undervoltage, and transients (or spikes) can erase data from memory or even cause components to fail. To
protect against these types of problems, power wiring ground conductors should always be properly grounded.
Also, place the system on a dedicated power circuit (rather than sharing a circuit with other heavy electrical
equipment). In general, do not allow the system to share a circuit with any of the following:
• Copy machines
• Air conditioners

23
System Grounding
• Vacuum cleaners
• Space heaters
• Power tools
• Teletype machines
• Laser printers
• Facsimile machines
• Any other motorized equipment
Besides these appliances, the greatest threats to a system's power supply are surges or blackouts that are caused
by electrical storms. Whenever possible, turn off the system and peripherals, if any, and unplug them from
their power sources during thunderstorms. If a blackout occurs—even a temporary one—while the system is
turned on, turn off the system immediately and disconnect it from the electrical outlet. Leaving the system on
may cause problems when the power is restored; all other appliances left on in the area may create large
voltage spikes that may damage the system.
System Grounding
Warning To reduce risk of electric shock, when installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be
made first and disconnected last.
Warning To reduce risk of fire, use copper conductors only.
You must install a system ground as part of the chassis installation process. Chassis installations that rely only
on the AC third-prong ground are insufficient to adequately ground the systems.
Proper grounding practices ensure that the buildings and the installed equipment within them have
low-impedance connections and low-voltage differentials between chassis. When you install a system ground,
you reduce or prevent shock hazards, chances of equipment damage due to transients, and the potential for
data corruption.
Without proper and complete system grounding, you run the risk of increased component damage due to ESD.
Additionally, you have a greatly increased chance of data corruption, system lockup, and frequent system
reboot situations by not using a system ground.
Caution Installations that rely solely on system grounding that uses only an AC third-prong ground run a substantially
greater risk of equipment problems and data corruption than those installations that use both the AC third-prong
ground and a properly installed system ground.
The following table lists some general grounding practice guidelines.

25
Maintaining Safety with Electricity
Note In all situations, grounding practices must comply with Section 250 of the National Electric Code (NEC)
requirements or local laws and regulations. A 6 AWG grounding wire is preferred from the chassis to the rack
ground or directly to the common bonding network (CBN). The equipment rack should also be connected to
the CBN with a 6 AWG grounding wire.
Note Grounding lugs must be installed on the location marked on the chassis only.
Note Always ensure that all of the modules are completely installed and that the captive installation screws are
fully tightened. In addition, ensure that all the I/O cables and power cords are properly seated. These practices
are normal installation practices and must be followed in all installations.
Maintaining Safety with Electricity

When working on electrical equipment, follow these guidelines:
• Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist anywhere in your work space.
• Never assume that power is disconnected from a circuit; always check the circuit before working on it.
• When the power is switched off, put a lock-box on the circuit, so that no one can accidentally switch it
on.
• Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as damp floors, ungrounded power extension
cables, frayed or damaged power cords, and missing safety grounds.
• If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows:
• Use extreme caution; do not become a victim yourself.
• Disconnect power from the system.
• Seek medical attention, if necessary.
• Use the product within its marked electrical ratings and product usage instructions.
• Install the product in compliance with local and national electrical codes.
• If any of the following conditions occur, contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center:
• The power cable or plug is damaged.
• An object has fallen into the product.
• The product has been exposed to water or other liquids.
• The product has been dropped or shows signs of damage.
• The product does not operate correctly when you follow the operating instructions.

26
Preventing ESD Damage
• Use the correct external power source. Operate the product only from the type of power source indicated
on the electrical ratings label. If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult a local
electrician.
• To help prevent electrical shock, plug all the power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets.
These power cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter
plugs or remove the grounding prong from a power cable.
• Observe power strip ratings. Make sure that the total current rating of all products that are plugged into
the power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the power strip rating.
• Do not modify power cables or plugs yourself. Consult with a licensed electrician or your power company
for site modifications. Always follow your local and national wiring codes.
Preventing ESD Damage

ESD damage might occur when modules or other FRUs are improperly handled, resulting in intermittent or
complete failure of the modules or FRUs. Modules consist of printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal
carriers. EMI shielding and connectors are integral components of a carrier. Although the metal carrier helps
to protect the board from ESD, always use an ESD-grounding strap when handling modules. To prevent ESD
damage, follow these guidelines:
• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.
• When installing a component, use an available ejector lever to properly seat the bus connectors in the
backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the
system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.
• When removing a component, use an available ejector lever to release the bus connectors from the
backplane or midplane.
• Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or connectors.
• Place a removed component board-side-up on an antistatic surface or in a static-shielding container. If
you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static-shielding container.
• Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects components
from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
• Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.
Tools and Equipment

Obtain these necessary tools:
• A Number-2 Phillips screwdriver.

27
Verifying Switch Operation
Verifying Switch Operation

Before you install the switch in a rack or on a table or shelf, power on the switch and verify that it passes
POST.
To power on the switch, plug one end of the AC power cord into the switch AC power connector, and plug
the other end into an AC power outlet.
As the switch powers on, it begins the POST, a series of tests that runs automatically to ensure that the switch
functions properly. LEDs can blink during the test. POST lasts approximately 1 minute. The SYST LED
blinks green, and the other LEDs remain solid green.
When the switch completes POST successfully, the SYST LED remains green. The LEDs turn off and then
reflect the switch operating status. If a switch fails POST, the SYST LED turns amber.
POST failures are usually fatal. Call Cisco technical support representative if your switch fails POST.
After a successful POST, unplug the power cord from the switch and install the switch in a rack, on a table,
or on a shelf.

Planning a Switch Data Stack

Switch Stacking Guidelines
A StackWise adapter must be installed in the stacking port to enable stacking. The StackWise cable connects
to the StackWise adapter in the stacking port. If the switch is not ordered with stacking, the adapters must be
ordered separately and installed.
Before connecting the switches in a stack, observe these stacking guidelines:

30
Switch Stacking Guidelines
• Number of switches in the stack. You can create data stacks with up to eight switches in a stack.
• Length of the cable. Order the appropriate cable from your Cisco sales representative. The length of the
cable depends on your configuration. These are the different sizes available:
• 0.5 meter cable (STACK-T4-50CM)
• 1 meter cable (STACK-T4-1M)
• 3 meter cable (STACK-T4-3M)
• Minimum bend radius and coiled diameter for StackWise cables. We recommend a minimum bend radius
and coiled diameter for each StackWise cable.

Data Stack Cabling Configurations

This is an example of a recommended configuration that uses the supplied 0.5-meter StackWise cable. In this
example, the switches are stacked in a vertical rack or on a table. This configuration provides redundant

connections. The configuration example uses the supplied 0.5-meter StackWise cable. The example shows
the full-ring configuration that provides redundant connections.
Figure 8: Data Stacking the Switches in a Rack or on a Table Using the 0.5-meter StackWise Cables
This example shows a recommended configuration when the switches are mounted side-by-side. Use the
1-meter and the 3-meter StackWise cables to connect the switches. This configuration provides redundant
connections.
Figure 9: Data Stacking in a Side-by-Side Mounting

This section provides examples of data stack bandwidth and possible data stack partitioning. The figure shows
a data stack of switches that provides full bandwidth and redundant StackWise cable connections.
Figure 10: Example of a Data Stack with Full Bandwidth Connections

33
This figure shows an example of a stack of switches with incomplete StackWise cabling connections. This
stack provides only half bandwidth and does not have redundant connections.
Figure 11: Example of a Data Stack with Half Bandwidth Connections
The figures below show data stacks of switches with failover conditions. In this figure, the StackWise cable
is bad in link 2. Therefore, this stack provides only half bandwidth and does not have redundant connections.
Figure 12: Example of a Data Stack with a Failover Condition
In this figure, link 2 is bad. Therefore, this stack partitions into two stacks, and the top and bottom switches
become the active switch in the stack. If the bottom switch is a member (not active or standby switch), it
reloads.

34
Power-On Sequence for Switch Stacks
Figure 13: Example of a Partitioned Data Stack with a Failover Condition
Power-On Sequence for Switch Stacks

Consider these guidelines before you power on the switches in a stack:
• The sequence in which the switches are first powered on might affect the switch that becomes the stack
master.
• There are two ways to elect an active switch:
• If you want a particular switch to become the active switch, configure it with the highest priority.
Among switches with same priority, the switch with the lowest MAC address becomes the active
switch.
• If you want a particular switch to become the active switch, power on that switch first. This switch
remains the active switch until a reelection is required. After 2 minutes, power on the other switches
in the stack. If you have no preference as to which switch becomes the active switch, power on all
the switches in the stack within 1 minute. These switches participate in the active switch election.
Switches powered on after 2 minutes do not participate in the election.
• Power off a switch before you add it to or remove it from an existing switch stack. If changes are made
to the stack without powering down the switches, the following results can occur:
• If two operating partial ring stacks are connected together using a stack cable, a stack merge can
take place. This situation reloads the whole stack (all switches in the stack).
• If some switches in the stack are completely separated from the stack, a stack split can occur.
• A stack split can occur on a full ring stack if:

• More than one running switch is removed without powering down.
• More than one stack cable is removed without powering down.
• A stack split can occur in a partial ring stack if:

• A switch is removed without powering down.

35
Mounting the Switch
• A stack cable is removed without powering down.
• In a split stack, depending on where the active and standby switches are located, either two stacks might
be formed (with the standby taking over as the new active switch in the newly formed stack) or all the
members in the newly formed stack might reload.
Note These results depend on how the switches are connected. You can remove two or more switches from the
stack without splitting the stack.
For conditions that can cause a stack reelection or to manually elect the active switch, see the stacking software
configuration guide Stack Manager and High Availability Configuration Guide for Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series
Switches on Cisco.com.
Mounting the Switch

The following sections explain the different mounting options.
Rack-Mounting
Installation in racks other than 19-inch racks requires a bracket kit not included with the switch.
Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to
ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the
heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the
unit in the rack.
Statement 1006
Figure 14: Rack-Mounting Brackets
This figure shows the standard 19-inch brackets and other optional mounting brackets. You can order the
optional brackets (ACC-KIT-T1=) from your Cisco sales representative.

What to do next
When you complete the switch installation, see After Switch Installation, on page 40 for information on
switch configuration.
After Switch Installation

• Configure the switch using the Web User Interface. For more information, see "Configuring the Switch
Using the Web User Interface" topic in the Software Configuration Guide.
• Connect the required devices to the switch ports.
• Turn on the power supply switches to power up the system. While powering up, the switch performs a
series of bootup diagnostic tests.
Note The switch is designed to boot up in less than 30 minutes, provided that the
neighboring devices are in fully operational state.
• Verify port connectivity after connecting devices to the switch ports. The LED turns green when the
switch and the attached device have a link.

40
Connecting to the StackWise Ports

Before you begin
Before connecting the StackWise cables, read the "Planning a Switch Data Stack" section. Always use a
Cisco-approved StackWise cable to connect the switches.
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the dust covers from the StackWise cables and StackWise ports, and store them for future use.
A StackWise adapter must be installed in the StackWise port to enable stacking. In the default setup, the
StackWise adapter blanks are installed in the StackWise ports. If StackWise stacking is ordered with the
switch, StackWise adapters are already installed in the StackWise ports, and you can proceed to step 4.
Step 2 Remove the StackWise adapter blanks from each destination StackWise port using the Torx T15 Allen key
provided in the stacking kit (or a Torx T15 screwdriver). Store them for future use.
Step 3 Install a StackWise adapter in each destination StackWise port, and secure it in place using the supplied Torx
T15 key, or a Torx T15 screwdriver.
Figure 19: Installing the StackWise Adapter in a StackWise Port
1StackWise adapter 2StackWise port
Step 4 Connect the cable to the StackWise port on the switch rear panel.
a) Align the StackWise cable connector with the StackWise adapter in the StackWise port.
b) Insert the StackWise cable connector into the StackWise port. Make sure that the Cisco logo is on the top
side of the connector.

41
Figure 20: Connecting the StackWise Cable in a StackWise Port

c) Finger-tighten the screws in clockwise direction.

Step 5 Connect the other end of the cable to the port on the other switch and finger-tighten the screws. Avoid
over-tightening the screws.
Caution Removing and installing the StackWise cable can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert
the cable more often than is absolutely necessary (installing and removing it up to 200 times is
supported).
When you need to remove the StackWise cable from the connector, make sure to fully unscrew the correct
screws. When the connectors are not being used, replace the dust covers.

Connecting Devices to the Ethernet Ports
Connecting Devices to the Ethernet Ports

10/100/1000/Multigigabit Ethernet Port Connections
The switch 10/100/1000 and Multigigabit Ethernet port configuration changes to operate at the speed of the
attached device. If the attached ports do not support autonegotiation, you can manually set the speed and
duplex parameters. Connecting devices that do not autonegotiate or that have the speed and duplex parameters
manually set can reduce performance or result in no linkage.
To maximize performance, choose one of these methods for configuring the Ethernet ports:
• Let the ports autonegotiate both speed and duplex.
• Set the interface speed and duplex parameters on both ends of the connection.
Auto-MDIX Connections
The autonegotiation and the auto-MDIX features are enabled by default on the switch.
With autonegotiation, the switch port configurations change to operate at the speed of the attached device. If
the attached device does not support autonegotiation, you can manually set the switch interface speed and
duplex parameters.
With auto-MDIX, the switch detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet connections and configures
the interface accordingly.
If auto-MDIX is disabled, use the guidelines in this table to select the correct cable.

100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T traffic requires twisted four-pair, Category 5 or higher. 10BASE-T
traffic can use Category 3 cable or higher.
PoE and POE+ Port Connections

The 10/100/1000 PoE and PoE+ ports have the same autonegotiation settings and cabling requirements that
are described in the 10/100/1000 Ports, on page 4. These ports can provide PoE and PoE+ inline power.

43
PoE and POE+ Port Connections
PoE inline power supports devices compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard, as well as prestandard Cisco
IP Phones and Cisco Aironet Access Points. Each port can deliver up to 15.4 W of PoE. PoE+ inline power
supports devices compliant with the IEEE 802.3at standard, by delivering up to 30 W of PoE+ power per port
to all switch ports.
See Power Supply Modules, on page 9 for the power supply modules required to support PoE and PoE+ on
24- and 48-port switches.
Warning Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if interconnections are
made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals. Avoid using such interconnection
methods, unless the exposed metal parts are located within a restricted access location and users and service
people who are authorized within the restricted access location are made aware of the hazard. A restricted
access area can be accessed only through the use of a special tool, lock and key or other means of security.
Statement 1072
Warning Voice over IP (VoIP) service and the emergency calling service do not function if power fails or is disrupted.
After power is restored, you might have to reset or reconfigure equipment to regain access to VoIP and the
emergency calling service. In the USA, this emergency number is 911. You need to be aware of the emergency
number in your country. Statement 371
Caution Category 5e and Category 6 cables can store high levels of static electricity. Always ground the cables to a
suitable and safe earth ground before connecting them to the switch or other devices.
Caution Noncompliant cabling or powered devices can cause a PoE port fault. Use only standard-compliant cabling
to connect Cisco prestandard IP Phones and wireless access points, IEEE 802.3af, or 802.3at (PoE+)-compliant
devices. You must remove any cable or device that causes a PoE fault.

Safety Warnings
This section includes the installation cautions and warnings. Translations of the safety warnings are available
in the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Switches .
Read this section before you install a network module.
Caution Proper ESD protection is required whenever you handle equipment. Installation and maintenance personnel
should be properly grounded by grounding straps to eliminate the risk of ESD damage to the equipment.
Equipment is subject to ESD damage whenever you remove it.
1030
Warning Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module. Exposed circuitry could
constitute an energy hazard. Statement 206

45
Note The switch can operate without a network module, but a blank module (with no ports or SFP slots) is available
and should be installed when uplink ports are not required.
Note The switch generates logs when you insert or remove a network module with SFP/SFP+ slots.
Use only supported network modules and Cisco pluggable transceivers. Each module has an internal serial
EEPROM that is encoded with security information.
The network module is hot-swappable. If you remove a module, replace it with another network module or
a blank module.
Note The switch complies with EMC, safety, and thermal specifications when a network module is present. If no
uplink ports are required, install a blank network module.
Before you begin

When installing network modules, observe these precautions:
• Do not remove the blank module from the slot unless you are installing a network module. A module
must be in the uplink slot at all times.
• Do not remove the dust plugs from the pluggable transceivers or the rubber caps from the fiber-optic
cable until you connect the cable. The plugs and caps protect the module ports and cables from
contamination and ambient light.
• Removing and installing a network module can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert a network
module more often than is necessary.
• To prevent ESD damage, follow your normal board and component handling procedures when connecting
cables to the switch and other devices.
Procedure
Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap to your wrist and to an earth ground surface.

Installing a Power Supply Unit
• Power Supply Modules Overview, on page 55
• Finding the Power Supply Module Serial Number, on page 58
• Installing or Replacing an AC Power Supply Module, on page 60
Power Supply Modules Overview

The switch chassis has two power supply slots that operates with either one active power supply module and
a redundant power supply module. You can use two AC modules or one AC module and a blank cover. The
active and redundant modules must be of the same type.
All power supply modules have internal fans. All switches ship with a blank cover in the second power supply
slot.
The main module is field replaceable and the redundant module is hot-swappable. The redundant power supply
can also be used for extra PoE power.
Two power supply modules can be powered up from two different phases.
The following table describes the supported internal power supply modules.
Table 11: Power Supply Module Part Numbers and Descriptions

55
All the switches ship with a blank cover in the second power supply slot if the switches are ordered with only
one power supply module.
For information about available PoE and PoE+ requirements, see these sections the Power Supply Modules,
on page 9.
The power supply modules are autoranging units that support input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. Each
AC power supply module has a power cord for connection to an AC power outlet. The modules use an 18-AWG
power cord.
The following illustrations show the power supply modules.

Finding the Power Supply Module Serial Number

If you contact Cisco Technical Assistance regarding a power supply module, you need to know the serial
number. See the following illustrations to find the serial number. You can also use the CLI to find out the
serial number.

58
Figure 31: AC Power Supply Serial Number
Observe these guidelines when removing or installing a power supply module.
• Do not force the power supply module into the slot. This can damage the pins on the switch if they are
not aligned with the module.
• A power supply module that is only partially connected to the switch can disrupt the system operation.
• Remove power from the power supply module before removing or installing the module.
• The power supply module is hot-swappable. In some configurations, such as full PoE+ or power sharing
mode, removing a power supply module causes powered devices to shut down until the power budget
matches the input power of a single power supply module. To minimize network interruption, ensure
that an active backup is in progress.
For the switch commands that display available power budget, see the software configuration guide.

59
Installing or Replacing an AC Power Supply Module
Caution Do not operate the switch with one power-supply module slot empty. For proper chassis cooling, both module
slots must be populated, with either a power supply or a blank module.
Warning This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence
of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician
if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
Statement 1024
Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages
and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other
equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all
cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029
Warning Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module. Exposed circuitry could
constitute an energy hazard.
Statement 206
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.
Statement 1030
Warning If a Cisco external power system is not connected to the switch, install the provided connector cover on the
back of the switch.

Off PoE mode is not selected. None of the 10/100/1000 ports have been denied power
or are in a fault condition.
Green PoE mode is selected, and the port LEDs show the PoE mode status.
Port LEDs and Modes

Each Ethernet port, 1-Gigabit Ethernet module slot, and 10-Gigabit Ethernet module slot has a port LED.
These port LEDs, as a group or individually, display information about the switch and about the individual
ports. The port mode determines the type of information shown by the port LEDs.
To select or change a mode, press the Mode button until the desired mode is highlighted. When you change
port modes, the meanings of the port LED colors also change.
When you press the Mode button on any switch in the switch stack, all the stack switches change to show the
same selected mode. For example, if you press the Mode button on the active switch to show the SPEED
LED, all the other switches in the stack also show the SPEED LED.
