Chassis for the Cisco Nexus 3548 Switch
The 1-RU Cisco Nexus 3548 chassis (part number N3K-C3548P-10G) is 1.72 inches (4.37 cm) high,
17.3 inches (43.9 cm) wide, and 18.38 inches (46.7 cm) deep. This switch is designed for 19-inch (48.3
cm) racks. Its switch ports are at the rear of the chassis in close proximity to server ports, and the power
supplies and fan tray modules are accessible from the front for easy replacement. You can order this
switch with forward or reverse airflow depending on whether the front of the switch is in a cold aisle
(forward airflow) or in a hot aisle (reverse airflow). You can also order the switch with AC or DC power
supplies.
Fully populated with two power supplies and four fans, the switch weighs 17.4 lb pounds (7.9 kg) and
can be easily installed by one or two people.
