OmniSwitch 6600 Family
Features
The OmniSwitch 6600 Family (OS6624, OS6600-U24,
OS6648, OS6600-P24, OS6602-24, and OS6602-48) are next
generation enterprise edge/workgroup switches. These
switches are based on the same software architecture as
OmniSwitch 7000 and 8000 series switches (i.e., OS7700,
OS7800, and OS8800). These switches are designed to meet
the most stringent network requirements for mission-critical
networks.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches are optimized for voice
and data integration and provide non-blocking multi-Gigabit
Ethernet capacity. Additional features include Carrier-class
intelligence, best of breed QoS, Carrier-class resiliency,
network management, and advanced policy-based VLANs and
security. OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches also support wirespeed Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, industry-based standards, and a full array of reliability, redundancy and resiliency
capabilities.
Stand-Alone and Stacked Configurations
Stand-Alone
A stand-alone OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch is ideal for
small and medium-sized network edge applications, offering
24 10/100 ports (OS6624 and OS6602-24), 24 Power over
Ethernet (PoE) ports (OS6600-P24), 48 10/100 (OS6648 and
OS6602-48) ports, and 24 100 SFP ports (OS6600-U24).
These switches provide support for enterprise-based devices,
such as computer workstations or IP telephones.
A single OmniSwitch 6600 Family also supports two Gigabit
Ethernet uplinks for high-bandwidth connections to a backbone or server.
March 2005 OmniSwitch 6600 Family 1
Stacked Configurations
Availability Features
In addition to working as individual, stand-alone switches,
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can also be linked together
to form a single, high-density virtual chassis known as a stack.
Stacking switches provides scalability by allowing users to
quickly and easily expand 10/100 port density. Twenty-four
10/100 ports are added for each OS6624 brought into the
stack; twenty-four 100 SFP ports are added for each OS6600U24; forty-eight 10/100 ports are added for each OS6648.
Up to eight switches can be stacked. OmniSwitch 6600 Family
switches can be mixed and matched in any combination within
the stack. This provides a virtual chassis with a 10/100 or 100
capacity of up to 384 ports.
As with the stand-alone configuration, a stacked virtual chassis configuration provides Gigabit Ethernet uplinks to a backbone or server.
Note. For basic information on stacking OmniSwitch 6600
Family switches into a virtual chassis, refer to
“Completing a Stacked Configuration” on page 24.
For additional information, refer to the OmniSwitch
6600 Family Hardware Users Guide.
The OmniSwitch 6600 Family provides a broad variety of
Availability features. Availability features are hardware- and
software-based safeguards that help prevent the loss of data
flow in the event of a subsystem failure.
In addition, some Availability features allow you to maintain
or replace hardware components without powering off your
switch or interrupting switch operations.
Combined, these features provide added resiliency and help
ensure that your switch is consistently available for your dayto-day network operations.
Hardware-related Availability features include:
• Smart Continuous Switching
• Software Rollback
• Hot Swapping
• Hardware Monitoring
For information on these Availability features, refer to the
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide.

Setting Up the Hardware
Items Required
In addition to the materials and components provided in the
OmniSwitch 6600 Family 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 6600 Family switches have the following environmental and airflow requirements:
• The installation site must maintain a temperature
between 0° and 45° Celsius (32° and 122° Fahrenheit)
and not exceed 95 percent maximum humidity (noncondensing) at any time.
• Be sure to allow adequate room for proper air ventila-
tion 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 “Airflow Considerations” on
page 9 for minimum clearance requirements.
Electrical Requirements
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches have the following general
electrical requirements:
• Each switch requires one grounded AC power source
for each power supply installed in the chassis .
• Grounded AC power source must be 110V for North
American installations (220V international).
• Each supplied AC power cord is 2 meters (approxi-
mately 6.5 feet) long. Do not use extension cords.
Redundant Circuit Recommendation. If possible, it is
recommended that the primary and back up power
supplies are plugged into AC sources on separate circuits.
With redundant AC, if a single circuit fails, the switch’s
back up power supply (on a separate circuit) will likely be
unaffected and can therefore continue operating.

to the location where it will be installed.
• Depending on your order, uplink modules,
MiniGBICs, stacking modules, and SFPs 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.
8 Setting Up the Hardware March 2005
Instructions
Setting Up the Switch
1 Carefully cut the tape along the seam at the top of the
box containing the chassis.
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 the foam pads and protective plastic
from the switch chassis.
Note. Alcatel provides factory-installed blank cover plates
for empty module slots. Because they play an important
role in chassis ventilation, do not remove these cover
plates unless a module or back up power supply is to be
installed immediately at the corresponding slot.
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 6600 Family switches have been
removed from their packaging, continue to “Setting Up
the Switch” on page 9.
Note. Due to their airflow and access requirements,
OmniSwitch 6600 Family 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—e.g., back up power supply and power
switch(es).
Rear. 5 inches minimum
at rear of chassis for
installation and removal
of optional back up
power supply.
Sides. 2 inches minimum
at left and right sides for
chassis airflow.
Front. 6 inches minimum
at front of chassis for
cable access and LED
visibility.
Chassis Top View
March 2005 Setting Up the Hardware 9
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 Hardware Users Guide.
There are two ways in which the OmniSwitch 6600 Family
can be installed:
Installing the Switch on a Tabletop or Bench
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can be installed freestanding as tabletop units. Locate your switch in a stable, flat, staticfree surface.
Note. OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches must be placed
“right side up.” Never attempt to operate a switch positioned on its side.
• 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” on page 10.
For information on rack-mounting the switch, refer to
“Rack-Mounting the Switch” on page 11.
To install the switch as a tabletop unit, follow the steps below:
1 Position the chassis on the table or bench where it is to
be installed. Refer to page 7 for chassis weight consider-
ations.
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 9.
Also, be sure that you have placed the chassis within reach
of all required AC power sources. For environmental and
electrical requirements, refer to page 6.
3 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.
4 Verify that the on/off switch for each OmniSwitch
6600 Family is in the off ( O ) position.
10 Setting Up the Hardware March 2005
5 Plug the power cord (supplied) into the power socket
located on the switch’s rear panel; next, plug the cord into
an easily-accessible grounded AC power source. See
“Electrical Requirements” on page 6 for more informa-
tion.
Note. If you are installing the switch in a 23-inch wide
rack, Alcatel offers optional 23-inch rack-mounting hardware. For more information, contact your Alcatel representative.
Note. Do not turn on the power supplies at this time. You
will power on all switches later in the setup process.
6 Continue to “Installing a Back Up Power Supply
(OS6624, OS6648, OS6600-U24)” on page 14.
Rack-Mounting the Switch
Refer to the important guidelines below before installing the
OmniSwitch chassis in a rack.
• It is recommended that two people install the switch in
the rack—one person to hold the chassis and position it
in the rack, and a second person to secure the chassis to
the rack using attachment screws (not supplied).
• Alcatel provides two rack-mount flanges with each
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch. These flanges
support standard 19-inch rack mount installations.
These flanges must be attached to the chassis before
the switch can be rack mounted.
• Alcatel does not provide rack-mount screws. Use the
screws supplied by the rack vendor.
• To prevent a rack from becoming top heavy, it is
recommended that you install heavier equipment at the
bottom of the rack whenever possible.
• If you are installing the switch in a relay rack, be sure
to install and secure the rack per the rack manufacturer’s specifications.
• Review page 9 for important chassis airflow and access
recommendations before installing.
To rack-mount the switch, follow the steps below.
1 Align the holes in the provided rack-mount flanges
with the four threaded holes in the OmniSwitch chassis.
These threaded holes are located in the left and right sides
of the chassis, near the front panel.

were marked in step 3.
8 On OS6624, OS6648, OS660-U24, and OS6600-P24
switches verify that the on/off switch for the OmniSwitch
6600 Family switch is in the off ( O ) position. The on/off
switch is located on the switch’s rear panel.
12 Setting Up the Hardware March 2005
9 Plug the power cord (supplied) into the power socket
located on the switch’s rear panel; next, plug the cord into
an easily-accessible grounded AC power source. See
“Electrical Requirements” on page 6 for more informa-
tion.
Note. Do not turn on the power supply at this time. You
will power on the switch later in the setup process.
10 If you wish to install a supplemental ground for the
switch, you may attach a type LCD8-10A-L grounding lug
to the grounding lug, located on the switch’s rear panel.
Install the type LCD8-10A-L grounding lug per manufacturer’s specifications.
Rack Mounting Stacked Configurations
If you are rack mounting multiple switches in a stacked
configuration, be sure to place all switches in verticallyadjacent rack positions. This will ensure that all required
stacking cables will have adequate length for the installation.
For additional instructions on rack mounting a stacked configuration, follow the steps below:
1 Install the rack mount flanges for all switches that are
to be included in the stacked configuration, as described
on page 11. Up to eight switches may be stacked to form a
single virtual chassis.
2 Place the next switch in the stack directly on top of the
previously installed switch.
11 If you are installing multiple switches in a rack to
form a stacked configuration, refer to “Rack Mounting
3 Align the holes in the flanges with the holes in the
rack’s vertical posts.
Stacked Configurations” on page 13. If you are not install-
ing a stacked configuration, continue to “Installing a Back
Up Power Supply (OS6624, OS6648, OS6600-U24)” on
page 14.
4 Once the holes are aligned, insert a rack mount screw
through the bottom hole of each flange. Tighten both
screws until they are secure. Once the screws at the
bottom of each flange are secure, install the remaining two
rack mount screws. Be sure that all screws are securely
tightened.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 above for all remaining
switches.
6 On OS6624, OS6648, OS660-U24, and OS6600-P24
switches verify that the on/off switch for each
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch is in the off ( O ) posi-
tion.
March 2005 Setting Up the Hardware 13
7 Plug a power cord (supplied) into the power socket of
each switch; next, plug each cord into an easily-accessible
grounded AC power source.
Note. Do not turn on the power supplies at this time. You
will power on all switches later in the setup process.
Installing a Back Up Power Supply (OS6624, OS6648, OS6600-U24)
If the optional back up power supply was included with your
order, install the power supply now by following the steps
below. The back up power supply bay is located at the
switch’s rear panel.
8 If you wish to install a supplemental ground for each
switch, you may attach a type LCD8-10A-L grounding lug
to the grounding lug. Install the type LCD8-10A-L
grounding lug per manufacturer’s specifications.
9 After you have rack-mounted your switches, continue
to “Installing a Back Up Power Supply (OS6624, OS6648,
OS6600-U24)” on page 14.
Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any components,
free yourself of static by wearing a grounding strap, or by
grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage
the switch and the back up power supply.
1 If there is a blank cover panel installed at the back up
power supply bay, uninstall it by removing the two Phil-
lips attachment screws. After the attachment screws have
been removed, carefully pry the blank cover panel out and
away from the chassis. Set the cover panel and attach-
ment screws aside.

Installing Uplink and Stacking Modules
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches support the following
modules:

Module
• OS6600-GNI-U2 Fiber Gigabit Ethernet Uplink
Module
• Stacking Module

If uplink modules and/or stacking kits were specified with
your order, install them now by following the steps below:
screws have been removed, carefully pry the blank cover
panel out and away from the chassis. Set the cover panel
and attachment screws aside.
Important. Stacking modules can only be installed in the
far-right module slot. This slot is labeled EXPANSION/
STACKING and contains port positions 27 and 28
(OS6624 and OS6600-U24) or 51 and 52 (OS6648).
Do not attempt to install stacking modules at the
EXPANSION slot at port positions 25 and 26 (OS6624
and OS6600-U24) or 49 and 50 (OS6648).
OS6600-GNI-U2 and OS6600-GNI-C2 uplink modules
can be installed in either slot location. However, if you
install a Gigabit Ethernet uplink module in the
EXPANSION/STACKING slot, the switch must be used
as a stand-alone unit.
Port numbers are clearly marked on the OmniSwitch 6600
Family chassis front panels.
Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any components,
free yourself of static by wearing a grounding strap, or by
grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage
the switch and the uplink or stacking module.
1 If there is a blank cover panel installed over the uplink
or stacking module slot position, uninstall it by removing
the two Phillips attachment screws. After the attachment
2 Holding the uplink or stacking module by the front
panel, carefully slide the circuit board into the card guide
located in the chassis slot.

Note. The module should slide in easily. Do not force the
module into the slot. If any resistance is encountered,
ensure that the module is aligned properly in the card
guide and try again.
