I/O Modules

Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches support the following I/O modules in slots 1 through 4 and 7 through
10:

Fabric Modules

Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches support up to five fabric modules in the chassis. Each chassis has its
own type of fabric module as follows:
•
•
•
You can replace a Series 1 fabric module with a Series 2 module in the Cisco Nexus 7010 and 7018
Note
switches during operations, but while there is a mix of fabric module types, all of the fabric modules
perform as Series 1 fabric modules. If you power up a switch with two types of fabric modules installed,
only the Series 1 fabric modules will power up. To utilize the Series 2 fabric module capabilities, all of
the installed fabric modules must be Series 2 fabric modules.

Verifying the Status of a Module

Before you begin configuring the switch, you need to ensure that the modules in the chassis are
functioning as designed. To verify the status of all modules, enter the show module command. To verify
the status of a supervisor or I/O module, enter the show module slot_number command. To verify the
status of a fabric module, enter the show module xbar slot_number command. The interfaces in each
module are ready to be configured when the ok status is displayed in the show module command output.
