For information about the transceivers and connectors that you can use with these ports, see the
“Transceivers and Connectors Supported by the Cisco Nexus 2232TM FEX” section on page3-19.
Power Supplies for the Cisco Nexus 2232TM FEX
The Cisco Nexus 2200 Platform FEX chassis have two slots for front-end AC or DC power supplies that
have port-side-exhaust or port-side-intake airflow. These chassis are fully functional with one power
supply, but you can install a second power supply for power redundancy. You can install any of the
following power supplies in those two bays:
•AC power supply with port-side-exhaust airflow (N2200-PAC-400W)
•AC power supply with port-side-intake airflow (N2200-PAC-400W-B)
•DC power supply with port-side-exhaust airflow (N2200-PDC-400W)
•DC power supply with port-side-intake airflow (N2200-PDC-350W-B)
Caution Make sure that all of the fan tray and power supply modules use the same airflow direction and have the
same color designation on the front. Otherwise, the switch can over heat and shut down,
If you have only one power supply in a chassis, then you must install a blank filler plate
(N2200-P-BLNK) in the open slot to maintain the designed airflow.
