Cable Installation and Routing Guidelines for the
Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch
Introduction
Data center stakeholders are increasingly using virtualization technologies to consolidate multiple applications
over a smaller number of more powerful servers and switches. Forward-looking enterprises are preparing for
the next wave of consolidation, which leverages next-generation switch technologies with a unified 10 Gb/s
fabric to consolidate multiple networks over the same cabling infrastructure.
The Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch enables data center stakeholders to deploy a highly scalable 10 Gigabit
Ethernet (GbE) network in support of I/O consolidation goals. This document describes the advanced
Unified Physical Infrastructure (UPI) elements required to support the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch, including the
PANDUIT ® NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet, connectivity, accessories, and cable management.
The Application Note includes strategies for routing, managing, and protecting cables for several different
switch architectures and line card combinations. When used together, Cisco Nexus Series switches and
modular, scalable, and 100% tested PANDUIT cabling systems work together to enable business agility
and yield best-in-class performance within your data center.

Installation Overview
This Application Note outlines cabling strategies for several of the most common switch configurations, starting at line card
connections and progressing to cable routing and management within the switch enclosure.
Multiple deployment strategies and line card combinations exist for the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch, each of which have an impact
on cabling media selection and layout. These switches enable up to 384 1 Gb/s copper connections or 256 10 Gb/s fiber optic
connections (i.e. 512 fibers) in a single 10-slot chassis.

Installation Notes
Network reliability depends on the proper handling and installation of cables, active equipment, interconnections, and secure
enclosures. Disregard for cable management best practices (such as observing proper bend radius and cinching tension limits)
can introduce risk into the physical infrastructure, potentially degrading or interrupting network performance. The Cisco Nexus
7010 Switch is equipped with several cable management tools (cable management slots, cable management fins, and PANDUIT
Elastomeric Cable Ties) to help neatly route and manage copper and fiber optic cabling.
(1) The PANDUIT ® NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet provides 45RU of rack space, with 21RU occupied by the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch.
An additional 3RU of rack space typically houses a 1RU patch panel for “Out of Band Management”, “Console”, or “Link”
connections; and a 2RU horizontal cable manager used as a pathway for cabinet-to-cabinet connections. The remaining
21RU can be used to deploy patch panels or a second Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch.
PANDUIT ® NET-ACCESS ™ Switch Cabinets are compatible with PANDUIT connectivity, grounding, and pathway products to
provide a complete physical infrastructure solution for Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch deployments. The cabinets include vertical
cable management required to properly route, manage, and protect your 10 Gb/s copper and fiber infrastructure.
(2) When cabling the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch to a patch field within the same cabinet, the switch should be
placed in the bottom of the cabinet for stability.
For copper installations, both QUICKNET ™ Angled Patch Panels and MINI-COM ® Angled Patch Panels
provide required port density and cable management.
For fiber optic installations, both QUICKNET ™ Angled Patch Panels and OPTICOM ® Fiber Adapter Panels
(used with OPTICOM ® Rack Mount Fiber Enclosures) offer the required adapter port density and
cable management.
(3) Ensure fiber connector cleanliness any time fiber termination is performed in the field by following
PANDUIT Best Practices document PN446, “Visual Inspection and Cleaning of Fiber Optic Components”.
(4) This document shows modular jacks and adapters (copper and fiber connections) used to fully cable each
line card, in accordance with TIA/EIA-568. PANDUIT ® MINI-COM ® Blank Modules or OPTICOM ® Fiber Adapter
Panel Blanks should be used to fill empty module positions or FAP openings.
(5) The PANDUIT ® NET-ACCESS ™ Overhead Cable Routing System may be attached directly to the top of
the cabinet and used to route and protect copper cables in overhead channels, and is listed in the list of materials
as optional.
(6) The PANDUIT ® FIBERRUNNER ® Routing System may be used to route and protect fiber cables in overhead channels, and
is listed in the list of materials as optional.
(7) All the installation elements described in this Application Note should be grounded and bonded using all applicable elements
of the PANDUIT ® STRUCTUREDGROUND ™ Grounding System to provide a high quality, visually verifiable and dedicated
grounding path. These systems help network stakeholders improve network reliability, maintain system performance, and
protect equipment and personnel by meeting all applicable grounding and bonding industry standards: ANSI/TIA-942; JSTD-607-A-2002; and IEEE Std 1100™-2005 (the Emerald Book).

I. Line Card Cabling Techniques:
Copper Ports (RJ45 Connectors)
1. Copper line cards for the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch are
structured in 12-port clusters. Start from the outer-most line
card on one side of the switch (slot 1 or 10), and work
toward the inner-most card; repeat this approach on the
other side of the switch.
Step 1
2. Begin copper patch cord installation at the middle of the
line card (ports 25-26) and continue to the bottom
(ports 47-48).
3. Upon connecting each pair of copper patch cords, route
cables to the left side of the line card, and up through the
switch cable manager slot positioned directly above the card.
4. Lay each successive patch cord on top of the prior cables
as installation progresses to position cable bundles close
to the card.
5. Continue cable installation at the top of the line card
(ports 1-2), progressing to the final empty positions
(ports 23-24) at the middle of the card.

Copper Ports (RJ45 Connectors)
8. Before cabling the next line card, route current
cable bundle through the individual cable
management slots and fins provided on the
switch cable manager (as highlighted in blue
boxes), then through NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet
vertical cable management fingers (as
highlighted in red box) and out to final
destination, including patch panels above
switch, overhead cable routing system, etc.
Steps 8-10
Elastomeric cable ties
Switch cable manager fins
Note: Cable management fins attached to the
switch help support cables as they transition
from switch cable managers out to vertical
pathway spaces. Installers should split cable
bundles as needed when routing cables through
the fins.
9. Bundle and organize cables using the
PANDUIT Elastomeric Cable Ties included
with the switch. Ties are located at the top
of each line card, and at multiple locations
near cable management slots and on the
inside of each cable management fin.
These elastic cable ties are designed to
prevent cable bundle over-tensioning,
and are UL 94V-0 flammability rated to
meet NEBS GR-63-CORE requirements.

Once cables transition into vertical pathway spaces,
bundle cables using PANDUIT ® TAK-TY ® Hook & Loop
Cable Ties every 8-10 inches along length of cable bundle.
10. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,” and/or “Link” connections by routing Category 6A or Category 6 copper
patch cords from supervisor line cards (Slots 5 and 6) through switch cable manager slots and upward to Out of Band
Management patch panel. Ensure that these cables do not become entangled with data communications cabling by
positioning them between already-installed cable bundles and close to the cabinet vertical post.

II. Line Card Cabling Techniques:
Fiber Optic Ports (SFP+ Connectors)
1. Fiber line cards for the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch
are structured in 8-port clusters. Start from the
outer-most line card on one side of the switch (slot 1
or 10), and work toward the inner-most card; repeat
this approach on the other side of the switch.
Start cabling
at ports 1-2
and work
downward.
2. Begin fiber patch cord installation at the top of the
line card (ports 1-8) and continue to the bottom
(ports 25-32).
6-port (12-fiber) hydra
cable assemblies can
connect across line
card port clusters
3. Upon connecting each 8-port cluster, route cables
up through the switch cable manager slot positioned
directly above the card.
a. For discrete duplex LC patch cords: Route cables
through manager slot after connecting each cluster.
b. For duplex LC to MTP “hydra” cable assemblies
(4-port / 8-fiber or 6-port / 12-fiber): Route each
full cable assembly through manager slot upon
connection of all assembly cables to the line card
ports. 6-port hydra cable assembly break-outs
can connect across 8-port line card clusters.
Route cables away
from line card release
mechanisms
Note: Depending on port locations and line card
position, the cable assembly furcation (i.e., breakout) point may be located either within the Cisco
Nexus 7010 Switch cable manager or within the
NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet vertical cable routing space.
4. Lay each successive patch cord (or hydra assembly)
on top of the prior cables as installation progresses
to position bundles close to the card. Cables should
be routed away from line card release mechanisms
in order to maintain unhindered access to mechanisms.
5. Route cables from each line card through the individual cable management slots and fins provided on the switch, then
through NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet vertical cable management fingers and out to final destination (patch panels above switch,
0RU fiber adapter panels in vertical space, etc.).
6. Bundle cables using PANDUIT ® TAK-TY ® Hook & Loop Cable Ties every 8-10 inches along length of fiber
cable bundle.
7. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,” and/or “Link” connections by routing Category 6A or Category 6 copper patch
cords from supervisor line cards (Slots 5 and 6) through designated switch cable manager slots and upward to Out of Band
Management patch panel. Ensure that these cables do not become entangled with data communications cabling by position
them between already-installed cable bundles and close to the cabinet vertical post.

Application Note
III. Line Card Cabling Techniques:
Copper and Fiber Line Card Combinations
1. When mixing copper and fiber optic line cards within a single switch chassis, position fiber optic (SFP+) line cards in slots at
the edge of the switch. This strategy enables easier transition of data communication cables (i.e., fiber optic patch cords or
hydra cable assemblies) from outer line card slots to vertical pathways, and promotes segregation of copper and fiber optic
cabling pathways.
2. Install copper and fiber optic cables onto line cards as described in Sections I and II of this application note, routing cables
from each line card through the individual cable management slots and fins provided on the switch. Start from the outermost line card on one side of the switch and work toward the inner-most card (for example, from slot 1 to slot 4); repeat
this approach on the other side of the switch.
3. Route cable bundles through NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet
vertical cable management fingers and out to final
destination. Secure bundles in vertical spaces using
PANDUIT ® TAK-TY ® Hook & Loop Cable Ties every
8-10 inches.
4. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,” and/or
“Link” connections by routing Category 6A or Category 6
copper patch cords from supervisor line cards (slots 5
and 6) through designated half-width switch cable
manager slots and upward to Out of Band Management
patch panel. Ensure that these cables do not become
entangled with data communications cabling by position
them between already-installed cable bundles and close
to the cabinet vertical post.

IV. Switch Enclosure Cabling Layouts:
Copper Ports (RJ45 Connectors)
The Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch can be cabled with copper data links in several different configurations depending upon
installation requirements and topology layout preferences. This section describes how to cable the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch
with copper media for both cross-connect and interconnect topologies.
Cross-Connect
One switch per cabinet, cabled to a patch field in another location (see example 1)
Two switches per cabinet, cabled to a patch field in another location (see example 2)
Interconnect
One switch per cabinet, cabled to patch field within the same cabinet (see example 3)
One switch and patch field per cabinet, cabled to patch fields between two cabinets (see example 8)
When deploying copper line cards, first determine if a cross-connect
or an interconnect patching topology will be used:
Cross-connect topologies (patch cords from passive
patch panel to passive patch panel) are preferred for
locations where many service or application
reconfigurations will be taking place. In dynamic data
center environments, cross-connect topologies provide
the routing and configuration flexibility to rapidly
commission and decommission servers, reducing facility
reconfiguration costs and cabling time. Also,
configuration changes are made at patching connections
isolated from active hardware, thus reducing the risk of
inadvertent worker damage.
Interconnect topologies (patch cords from active switch
port to passive patch panel) are utilized in locations where
physical space is at a premium and limited moves, adds
and changes will occur. Rack space is conserved by
placing high-density patch fields in the same enclosure
as the switch. Also, operational costs are reduced in
these more static data center areas through fewer
reconfiguration efforts and higher density connections.
Note: Line card refreshes commonly occur every 3-5 years,
whereas the typical life of a data center can reach 10-15 years,
and with regular maintenance the facilities infrastructure and
structured cabling are both expected to support multiple
generations of IT equipment. It also is generally predicted
that most (if not all) links in the data center will need to carry
10 Gb/s in the near future with certain critical “core” links
supporting even faster data rates.
A B
For these reasons a 10-Gigabit ready cabling infrastructure is
recommended, with data center speed and reach requirements
favoring the deployment of Category 6A copper links. The PANDUIT ®
TX6A ™ 10GIG ™ UTP Copper Cabling System offers an innovative
cable design and advanced connector compensation techniques
to improve pathway capacity up to 30%, addressing the need for
a smaller diameter Category 6A cable without compromising
channel performance.
Example 1. Single-switch cabinet cabled
with copper media to remote patch field

Application Note
Cross-Connect Patching Topology
Cisco Nexus 7010 Switches can be placed within a NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet with all “permanent link” copper cabling exiting the
cabinet to a remote cross-connect patch field located in a different rack and/or cabinet.
When deploying the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch in a cross-connect patching environment:
1. Cable copper (RJ45) line cards using Category 6A copper cabling to establish the “permanent link” between the
switch cabinet and the “remote” cross-connect patch field cabinet or rack.
2. Use both sides of each NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet vertical cable management pathways to separately route cables
exiting the switch, creating a Network A/B layout.
3. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,” and/or “Link” connections by routing Category 6A or Category 6
copper patch cords from supervisor line cards (slots 5 and 6) through designated switch cable manager slots
and upward to Out of Band Management patch panel.

Example 2. Two-switch cabinet cabled
with copper media to remote patch field

Application Note
Interconnect Patching Topology
In an interconnect topology a single Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch is placed in the bottom half of the NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet, with the
associated patch field mounted in the top rack spaces. Category 6A copper patch cords connect the switch to the patch panels,
and all “permanent link” copper cabling runs from the rear of the patch panels to remote patch fields located elsewhere in the
data center.
Multiple NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinets can be ganged together, creating a standardized network equipment row with Cisco Nexus 7010
Switches positioned at the bottom of each enclosure. With this configuration, in-cabinet patch fields may be split to create a
Network A/B layout.
The interconnect layout requires that an equal
number of copper cables be routed to the left and
right of the switch to prevent cabling congestion in
vertical pathways. It is recommended that 48-port
angled patch panels be used such as QUICKNET ™
Angled Patch Panels and MINI-COM ® Angled Patch
Panels to facilitate proper bend radius control and
conserve rack space.
When deploying copper cabling with the Cisco
Nexus 7010 Switch in an interconnect patching
topology:
1. For line card slots 1-4, route all copper cabling
through the switch cable manager, transitioning
bundles into left vertical space and then up to
patching locations on the left side of the panel.
Switch cable manager pathways can be
utilized to minimize cable bundle size by
placing 24 cables per slot.

2. For line card slots 7-10, route all copper cabling
through the switch cable manager, transitioning
bundles into the right vertical space and then up
to patching locations on the right side of the
panel. Switch cable manager pathways can
be utilized to minimize cable bundle size by
placing 24 cables per slot.
3. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,”
and/or “Link” connections by routing Category
6A or Category 6 copper patch cords from
supervisor line cards (slots 5 and 6) through
designated switch cable manager slots and
upward to Out of Band Management patch panel.
Note: If not all line card slots are filled, it is
critical to install blanking panels over empty
patch panel locations to promote proper
airflow and cooling.
Example 3. Two single-switch cabinets cabled
with copper media to in-cabinet patch field

V. Switch Enclosure Cabling Layouts:
Fiber Optic Ports (SFP+ Connectors)
The Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch can be cabled with fiber optic data links in several different configurations depending upon
installation requirements and topology layout preferences. This section describes how to cable the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch
with fiber optic media for both cross-connect and interconnect topologies.
Cross-Connect
One switch per cabinet, cabled to a patch field in another location (see example 4)
Two switches per cabinet, cabled to a patch field in another location (see example 5)
Interconnect
One switch per cabinet, cabled to patch field within the same cabinet (see example 6)
One switch and patch field per cabinet, cabled to patch fields between two cabinets (see example 7)
When deploying fiber optic line cards, first determine if a cross-connect or an interconnect patching topology will be used:
Cross-connect topologies (patch cords from passive patch panel to passive patch panel) are preferred for locations
where many service or application reconfigurations will be taking place. In dynamic data center environments, crossconnect topologies provide the routing and configuration flexibility to rapidly commission and decommission servers,
reducing facility reconfiguration costs and cabling time. Also, configuration changes are made at patching connections
isolated from active hardware, thus reducing the risk of inadvertent worker damage
Interconnect topologies (patch cords from active switch port to passive patch panel) are utilized in locations where
physical space is at a premium and limited moves, adds and changes will occur. Rack space is conserved by placing
high-density patch fields in the same enclosure as the switch. Also, operational costs are reduced in these more static
data center areas through fewer reconfiguration efforts and higher density connections.
If array-based connectivity is used (i.e., pre-terminated cassettes, MTP ribbon cables, pre-terminated trunk cables, hydra cable
assemblies), extra care must be taken to ensure proper “Send” and “Receive” polarity throughout the duplex fiber optic link.
For further information on maintaining polarity across fiber optic channels please refer to the PANDUIT white paper “Best
Practices for Ensuring Polarity of Array-Based Fiber Optic Channels” channel performance.
Note: Line card refreshes commonly occur every 3-5 years, whereas the typical life of a data center can reach 10-15 years,
and with regular maintenance the facilities infrastructure and structured cabling are both expected to support multiple
generations of IT equipment. It also is generally predicted that most (if not all) links in the data center will need to carry
10 Gb/s in the near future with certain critical “core” links supporting even faster data rates.
For these reasons a 10-Gigabit ready cabling infrastructure is recommended, with data center speed and reach requirements
favoring the deployment of OM3 fiber optic links. OM3 has become the 50 µm fiber of choice for data center applications due
to its ability to cost-effectively achieve10 Gb/s performance over distances out to 300m. For longer distances or future faster
transport speeds, the deployment of OM4 multimode fiber or OS1/OS2 singlemode fiber should be considered.

2. Run pre-terminated MTP ribbon cables or trunk cables
from the rear of the MTP adapter FAPs to establish the
“permanent link” between the switch cabinet and the
“remote” cross-connect patch field cabinet or rack.
3. Install “Out of Band Management,” “Console,” and/or
“Link” connections by routing Category 6A or Category 6
copper patch cords from supervisor line cards
(slots 5 and 6) through designated switch cable manager
slots and upward to Out of Band Management patch panel.

For more information about this document, contact customer service at [email protected] or 800-777-3300, reference Cisco Nexus 7010 Application Note (March 2009).
Application Note
Interconnect Patching Topology
In an interconnect topology a single Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch can be placed in the bottom half of the NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet, with
the associated interconnect patch field mounted in the top rack spaces. Discrete duplex LC-to-LC patch cords connect the switch
to the patch panels, and all “permanent link” fiber optic cabling runs from the rear of the patch panels to remote patch fields
located elsewhere in the data center.
Multiple NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinets can be ganged together, creating a standardized network equipment row with Cisco Nexus 7010
Switches positioned at the bottom of each enclosure. With this configuration, a Network A patch field may be created using the
upper patch panels while a Network B patch field may be created with the lower patch panels. It is recommended that angled
48-port patch panels be used such as the PANDUIT ® QUICKNET ™ Angled Patch Panel to conserve valuable rack space and
accommodate potential future expansion of fiber line cards to 48-ports.
The interconnect layout requires that an equal number of patch cords from each line card be routed to both the left-hand and
right-hand sides of the patch field. However, all cords should be routed to one side of the switch before transitioning up to the
patch field; this prevents interweaving of patch cords
across the face of the switch and patch panels.

7010 Switch in an interconnect patching topology:

Application Note
VI. Switch Enclosure Cabling Layouts:
Copper and Fiber Line Card Combinations
The Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch can be cabled with a combination of copper and fiber optic data links in several configurations
depending upon installation requirements and topology layout preferences. This section describes how to cable the Cisco
Nexus 7010 Switch with mixed media for an interconnect topology.
Cross-Connect
One or two switches per cabinet, cabled to a patch field
in another location (see examples 1-2 and 4-5)
Interconnect
One switch per cabinet, cabled to patch field within the
same cabinet (see example 7)
One switch and patch field per cabinet, cabled to patch
fields between two cabinets (see example 8)
Both sides of the cable manager at the top of the switch
should be used to provide cable pathway separation
for Network A/B layout.
Note: Line card refreshes commonly occur every 3-5 years,
whereas the typical life of a data center can reach 10-15 years,
and with regular maintenance the facilities infrastructure and
structured cabling are both expected to support multiple
generations of IT equipment. It also is generally predicted that
most (if not all) links in the data center will need to carry
10 Gb/s in the near future with certain critical “core” links
supporting even faster data rates.
For these reasons a 10-Gigabit ready cabling infrastructure is
recommended, with data center speed and reach requirements
favoring the deployment of Category 6A copper and OM3 fiber
optic links. The PANDUIT ® TX6A ™ 10GIG ™ UTP Copper Cabling
System offers an innovative cable design and advanced
connector compensation techniques to improve pathway
capacity up to 30%, addressing the need for a smaller diameter
Category 6A cable without compromising channel performance.
Also, OM3 has become the 50 µm fiber of choice for data center
applications due to its ability to cost-effectively achieve 10 Gb/s
performance over distances out to 300m. For longer distances
or future faster transport speeds, the deployment of OM4
multimode fiber or OS1/OS2 singlemode fiber should
be considered.

Application Note
Interconnect Patching Topology
In an interconnect topology a single Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch is placed in the bottom half of the NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinet, with the
associated patch field mounted in the top rack spaces. The interconnect layout requires that an equal number of cables be
routed to the left and right of the switch to prevent cabling congestion in vertical pathways.
Multiple NET-ACCESS ™ Cabinets can be ganged together, creating a standardized network equipment row with Cisco Nexus 7010
Switches positioned at the bottom of each enclosure. With this configuration, a Network A/B patch field may be created using
one switch for each network (see example 8). It is recommended that 48-port angled patch panels be used such as QUICKNET ™
Angled Patch Panels and MINI-COM ® Angled Patch Panels to facilitate proper bend radius control and conserve rack space.
When deploying copper cabling with the Cisco Nexus 7010 Switch in an interconnect patching topology:
1. For line card slots 1-4, route all cabling
through the switch cable manager,
transitioning bundles into left vertical
space and then up to patching locations
on the left side of the panel.
2. For line card slots 7-10, route all cabling
through the switch cable manager,
transitioning bundles into right
vertical space and then up to patching
locations on the right side of the panel.
3. Install “Out of Band Management,”
“Console,” and/or “Link” connections
by routing Category 6A or Category 6
copper patch cords from supervisor line
cards (slots 5 and 6) through designated
switch cable manager slots and upward
to Out of Band Management patch panel.

Note: If not all line card slots are filled,
it is critical to install blanking panels over
empty patch panel locations to promote
proper airflow and cooling.
