Appendix D Technical Specifications
Power Specifications for the Cisco MDS 9509 Director
Component Power Requirements and Heat Dissipation for the Cisco MDS 9509
Director
When sizing the air-conditioning requirements for an installation, consider heat dissipation. The power
and heat associated with a Cisco MDS 9509 Director varies based upon the following considerations:
• Power supply type
• Switching module type and number of switching modules installed
• Average switching traffic levels
Table D-12 and Table D-13 list the power requirements and heat dissipation for the components of the
Cisco MDS 9509 Director.
Note Unless noted otherwise, the data listed in Table D-12 and Table D-13 is based on worst-case conditions.
Typical numbers are approximately 30 percent below the numbers listed here.
