The Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series Switches support dual 1+1 redundant power supplies (AC or DC). The switches ship
with one power supply by default. The second power supply can be purchased at the time the switch is ordered or at
a later time. If only one power supply is installed, it should always be in power supply bay #1.
The Catalyst 9500 Series ship with up to five field-replaceable variable-speed fans. These have front-to-back airflow
and can operate with up to one individual fan failure. The fan trays support fan-tray Online Insertion and Removal (OIR)
and can support a maximum fan speed of up to 24,000 rpm.
Catalyst 9500X models ship with six field-replaceable variable-speed fan units. By default these have front-to-back
(port-side intake) airflow fan units. The switch also has the option to select six back-to-front (port-side exhaust) airflow
fans. The fan trays support fan-tray Online Insertion and Removal (OIR) and can support a maximum fan speed of up
to 30,000 rpm.
Note: All Catalyst 9500X fan units must be the same type (either front-to-back or back-to-front). Mix and match of fan
trays (front-to-back or back-to-front) is not supported.
