This chapter includes the following sections: • Replacing a Power Supply, page 4-1 • Replacing a Fan Tray, page 4-4 Replacing a Power Supply The Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switches support a front-end power supply that you can replace.
Chapter 4 Replacing Components Replacing a Power Supply S e n d d o c u m e n t c o m m e n t s t o n ex u s 3 k - d o c f e e d b a ck @ c i s c o . c o m To remove an AC power supply, follow these steps: Step 1 Pull the power cord out from the power receptacle on the power supply. Step 2 Release the power supply from the chassis by pushing and holding the thumb latch to the left and pull the power supply part way out of the chassis (see Figure 4-1).

Caution Step 6 Depending on the outlet receptacle on your power distribution unit, you may need the optional jumper power cord to connect the Cisco Nexus 3000 Series switch to your outlet receptacle. See the “Jumper Power Cord” section on page C-8.

If a power source failure occurs, the second source will most likely still be available. Caution Be sure that the power supply that you are installing has the same airflow direction as the fan tray module and the other power supply.

It must also have the same direction of airflow as the power supplies. Otherwise, an overtemperature condition can occur.
