The OmniSwitch 6850 Series is an advanced fixed configuration family of Ethernet switches. These switches provide wire rate Layer 2 forwarding and Layer 3 routing with advanced services.

They are fixed configuration, triple-speed (10/100/1000) switches that provide increased network performance, improved application response times, secure the LAN, and enhance user productivity by maximizing mobility, network capacity, and services over existing category 5/5E/6 cabling.

Refer to the User Manual CD for additional hardware and software OmniSwitch documentation.

June 2007 OmniSwitch 6850 Series 1

Installing the Hardware

Items Required

In addition to the materials and components provided in the OmniSwitch 6850 Series shipment, you must provide the following items in order to complete this installation:

• Grounding wrist strap

• Phillips screwdriver

• Serial cable

• Rack mount screws, if applicable

Site Preparation

Environmental Requirements

OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches have the following environmental and airflow requirements:

• The installation site must maintain a temperature

between 0° and 45° Celsius (32° and 113° Fahrenheit) and not exceed 95 percent maximum humidity (noncondensing) at any time.

• Be sure to allow adequate room for proper air

ventilation and access at the front, back, and sides of the switch. No clearance is necessary at the top or bottom of the chassis. Refer to page 6 for minimum clearance requirements.

Electrical Requirements

OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches have the following general electrical requirements:

• Each switch requires one grounded AC power source.

• Grounded AC power source must be 110V for North

American installations (220V international).

• Each supplied AC power cord is approximately 2

meters (6.5 feet) long. Do not use extension cords.

NEBS GR-1089 Compliance Requirements

The following notes and warnings apply to all NEBS compliant platforms.

Grounding requirements: To ground the equipment properly, connect a Panduit Corporation UL listed Lug, P/N: LCD8-10AL to the two threaded holes located on the rear of each chassis and power supply module. All connections should be made using 8AWG copper conductors.

Use Panduit Corporation, P/N: CT-940CH for crimping. (Each Module must have its own grounding conductor.)

(GR-1089 requires treatment of ground connections and painted surfaces as needed during installation.)

June 2007 Installing the Hardware 3

All surfaces that are used for intentionally grounding the EUT shall be brought to a bright finish and an anti oxidant solution must be applied to the surfaces being joined.

Non-conductive coatings (such as lacquer and enamel) must be removed from threads and other contact surfaces to assure electrical conductivity.

(Thread forming screws with paint piercing washers may be used for this purpose during installation)

Warning. The intra-building interfaces of this platform, including Gigabit Ethernet, are suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only with shielded and grounded cables at both ends. The intra-building ports of the equipment must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring.

Note. All bare conductors must be coated with an appropriate antioxidant compound before crimp connections are made. All unplated connectors, braided strap, and bus bars are to be brought to a bright finish and then coated with an antioxidant before connecting them.

Weight Considerations

A single OS6850 weighs approximately 14 lbs (6.24 Kgs). A stack of eight OS6850 switches weighs approximately 112 lbs (50 Kgs).

4 Installing the Hardware June 2007

Items Included

Unpacking and Initial Setup

Your OmniSwitch 6850 Series switch order includes the following items:

• OmniSwitch 6850 Series chassis

• Rack mount flanges with attachment screws (rack

mount flanges may be pre-installed on some orders)

• Power cord (country-specific)

• Documentation CD containing a complete set of user

guides for the switch and switch software. Refer to

“Related Documentation” on page 2 for a complete list of

included documentation.

Depending on the items ordered for your specific network requirements, the following optional items may also be included:

• Stacking cables (per order)

• SFPs (per order)

• 10-Gigabit XFPs (per order)

Unpacking the Chassis

To protect your OmniSwitch chassis and hardware components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and physical damage, read all unpacking recommendations and instructions carefully before beginning.

Recommendations

• Unpack your OmniSwitch chassis as close as possible

to the location where it will be installed.

• Depending on your order, Small Form-Factor Plugga-

bles (SFPs), stacking cables and backup power supply components may be packaged separately. In order to greatly reduce exposure to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and physical damage, do not unpack these items until they are ready to be installed.

Instructions

1 Carefully cut the tape along the seam at the top of the

box containing the chassis.

• Backup power supply components and cables

(per order)

June 2007 Installing the Hardware 5

2 Lift the box’s top flaps. Remove any smaller boxes or

pouches that are enclosed and set them aside.

3 Lift the chassis out of the packaging.

4 Carefully remove any foam pads and protective plastic

from the switch chassis.

Setting Up the Switch

Note. Alcatel-Lucent provides factory-installed blank cover plates for empty backup power supply or 10-Gigabit expansion module bays. Do not remove these cover plates unless a backup power supply or expansion module is to be installed immediately at the corresponding bay.

5 If you are installing multiple switches in a stacked

configuration, repeat steps 1 through 4 for the remaining switches that will make up the stack.

6 Once all OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches have been

removed from their packaging, continue to “Setting Up the Switch.”

Note. Due to their airflow and access requirements, OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches cannot be wallmounted.

Airflow Considerations

Be sure that your switch is placed in a well-ventilated, staticfree environment. Always allow adequate clearance at the front, rear, and sides of the switch.

The following diagram shows recommended minimum clearances for adequate chassis airflow and access to components at the rear of the chassis:

Rear. 5 inches minimum at rear of chassis.

Sides. 2 inches minimum at left and right sides for chassis airflow.

6 Installing the Hardware June 2007

Never obstruct the air vents located at the left and right sides of the chassis.

Note. Clearance is not required at the top and bottom of the chassis. For detailed chassis airflow diagrams, refer to the OmniSwitch 6850 Series Hardware Users Guide.

Note. OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches must be placed “right side up.” Never attempt to operate a switch positioned on its side.

Tabletop Mounting Steps

To install the switch as a tabletop unit, follow the steps below:

Installation Options

There are two ways in which the OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches can be installed:

• Tabletop installation

• Rack-mount installation

For information on setting up a switch as a tabletop unit, refer to “Installing the Switch on a Tabletop or Bench.” For information on rack-mounting the switch, refer to

“Rack-Mounting the Switch” on page 8.

Installing the Switch on a Tabletop or Bench

OmniSwitch 6850 Series switches can be installed freestanding as tabletop units. Place your switch on a stable, flat, and static-free surface.

1 Position the chassis on the table or bench where it is to

be installed.

2 Be sure that adequate clearance has been provided for

chassis airflow and access to the front, back, and sides of the switch. For recommended clearances, refer to page 6. Also, be sure that you have placed the chassis within reach of all required AC power sources.

If you are placing multiple switches in a stacked configuration, carefully stack the remaining switches, one on top of the other. Up to eight switches may be stacked to form a single virtual chassis. Be sure to maintain adequate clearance at the front, rear, left, and right side of all switches (see page 6). Also, be sure that you have placed all switches in the stack within reach of required AC power sources.

Note. If you are installing a single (i.e., standalone) switch, continue to “Connections and Cabling” on page 11 for additional setup procedures.
