Application Scenarios
Use N9K-PAC-3000W-B when a Nexus 9500 chassis needs a like-for-like 3000W AC power supply replacement. The buyer should match the existing power supply type and airflow direction before ordering.
Choose this power supply when the Nexus 9500 chassis power budget requires additional 3000W AC capacity. Engineers should calculate total module power draw and redundancy mode before confirming quantity.
N9K-PAC-3000W-B can be kept as a spare for environments running Nexus 9504, Nexus 9508, or Nexus 9516 chassis with 3-kW AC power supplies. Procurement should confirm AC input, power cord, and site circuit compatibility.

- Choose N9K-PAC-3000W-B when the Nexus 9500 chassis uses 200V to 240V AC power and needs a 3000W AC module.
- Choose N9K-PDC-3000W-B only for Nexus 9500 sites designed around DC input power.
- Choose N9K-PUV-3000W-B or N9K-PUV2-3000W-B when the project requires universal high-voltage AC/DC input support.
- Do not mix AC and DC power supply types in the same switch; match the existing chassis power source before ordering.
Selection Guide
1. Choose N9K-PAC-3000W-B for Nexus 9500 3-kW AC power
Select N9K-PAC-3000W-B when the chassis requires a Cisco Nexus 9500 3000W AC power supply with port-side intake airflow.
2. Verify chassis power budget before confirming quantity
The required number of power supplies depends on installed supervisors, line cards, fabric modules, fan trays, and redundancy mode. Confirm the full chassis configuration before quoting quantity.
3. Match power source and redundancy mode
Confirm whether the chassis will run in combined, n+1, or n+n redundancy mode. Site power circuits and redundancy requirements affect the number of modules required.
4. Confirm power cord and regional electrical requirements
Power cord selection depends on deployment country, plug type, PDU design, and circuit rating. Confirm the required Cisco power cord or no-power-cord option before ordering.
