Caution The slider rail and front rack-mount brackets do not have a stop mechanism when sliding in and out. If
the front of the chassis is unfastened from the rack and the chassis slides forward on the slider rails, it
may slip off the end of the rails and fall out of the rack.
To remove the Cisco Nexus 5548P switch or the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch from a rack, follow
these steps:
Step 1 Ensure that the weight of the switch is fully supported and that the switch is being held by another
person.
Step 2 Disconnect the power cord and the console cables.
Step 3 Disconnect all cables that are connected to SFP+ transceivers.
Step 4 Remove the screws fastening the front rack-mount brackets to the mounting rails.
Step 5 Gently slide the switch towards you, off of the slider rails and out of the rack.
