Selecting a Site
Before you install the switch, review the following considerations about its location.
■AT-8948, x900-48FE, x900-48FS, and AT-9900 switches require an ambient temperature from 0ºC to 50ºC (32ºF to 122ºF).
■AT-9924Ts, x900-12XT/S, x900-24XT, x900-24XT-N, x900-24XS, and SwitchBlade x908 switches require an ambient temperature from 0ºC to 40ºC (32ºF to 104ºF).
■There should be adequate airflow around the switch and its vents.
■The site should be dust-free and without moisture.
■Humidity can be from 5% to 80% non-condensing.
■You need a reliable and earthed (grounded) power supply source, preferably dedicated and filtered.
■Cabling must not be exposed to sources of electrical noise, such as radio transmitters, broadband amplifiers, power lines, electric motors, and fluorescent fixtures.
■Switch ports are suitable for intra-building connections, or where non-exposed cabling is required.
■Related network devices can be connected to the switch but cannot exceed maximum cable lengths specified in the Hardware Reference.
■You may need to remove cabinet doors from the equipment rack to accommodate cords and cables.
■Ensure easy access to the switch’s power and cable connections.
■The SwitchBlade x908 should only be installed in locations where access to the system is controlled. The SwitchBlade x908 is not intended for home use. If installed in a school, it should only be installed in a location restricted to service personnel.

Installation and Safety Guide
Installing the Switch
Ports on the switch are suitable only for connections within buildings (intrabuilding) and with cables unexposed to the outside.
You can install the switch on a level surface, such as a desktop or bench, or in a standard 19-inch rack. Some switches are heavier at the rear than at the front. Use the brackets supplied with the switch when rack-mounting because they are designed to fully support the weight.
Before you begin
■Read the safety information.
For your well-being and that of the equipment, read the safety information in this document. You can also download this document from www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software.
■Verify the package contents if you have not already done so.
See “Package Contents” on page 4. If any items are damaged or missing, contact your authorised distributor or reseller.
■Gather necessary tools and equipment:
•Phillips #2 screwdriver to loosen the blanking plate, if any.
•Rack-mount screws and nuts, and a suitable screwdriver. The SwitchBlade x908 requires eight sets of screws and nuts. All other switches required four sets.
•For DC installations, you need an appropriate DC power source, DC supply cable, ring connectors, and a crimp tool for screw terminal style connectors or appropriate connectors for the PSU model.
■Prepare the cabinet in a suitable location
Follow guidelines described in “Selecting a Site” on page 6 to choose an appropriate location and modify the rack as necessary.
■Because the switch is deep, we recommend two people mount the switch in the rack and tighten the screws.
Preparation for NEBS
For Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) installations of the x900-24XT-N, do the following to ensure rack-mounted installations are earthed:
■Remove non-conductive coatings, such as lacquer and enamel, from the rack rail where hardware will contact it. Remove coatings from unplated connectors, braided strap, and bus bars, and bring them to a bright finish. Coat them with an antioxidant before connecting them. During installation, thread-forming screws with star washers may be used for this purpose.
7
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908
■All bare conductors must be coated with an appropriate antioxidant compound before making crimp connections.
Warning Both AC and DC versions of this equipment must be earthed through the power cables provided.
On a level surface
1.Ensure the area has sufficient space for the switch and its cables.
If you have not already done so, review considerations in “Selecting a Site” on page 6.
2.Unpack the switch.
3.Fit rubber feet, if supplied.
All models except the SwitchBlade x908 ship with rubber feet. They stop the switch from slipping and protect the surface from scratches. The x900-12XT/S switch has four feet. All other models have five feet. Using the screws provided, screw the rubber feet in the holes on the underside of the switch. Use the following diagram to locate the screw holes. For the x900-12XT/S, use positions 1, 2, 3, and 5.

Installation and Safety Guide
In a 19-inch rack
1.Ensure the rack has sufficient space for the switch and its cables. For the switch’s requirements, see “Selecting a Site” on page 6.
2.Install cage nuts at the front of the rack so they are ready for the rackmount screws in the following steps.
3.Unpack the switch.
It may be helpful to temporarily remove any PSU or FOM so that the switch is lighter and easier to manipulate during installation. For more information, see the Removable Power Supply and Fan Installation Guide.
4.Screw one bracket to each side of the switch using the M4 screws provided.
On the x900-12XT switch, you can use the alternative set of holes on the rack mount bracket to mount the switch further back in the rack.
For NEBS ensure the rack and hardware have been pre-treated, as described in “Preparation for NEBS” on page 7.

Installation and Safety Guide
Applying Power to the Switch
Power supply bays are in the rear of the switch. Depending on the model, the switch may have a PSU, FOM, or blanking plate over a power supply bay.
Connecting an AC power supply
Follow these instructions to connect one of the following to an AC power supply:
■an AT-PWR01, AT-PWR02, or AT-PWR05 AC PSU
■an x900-12XT/S switch
Warning The AT-PWR01 AC PSU has a fuse rating of 250V, 5A for FH101 and FH102.
Warning The AT-PWR01 AC PSU has double pole/neutral fusing. Electric shock is possible since there are dual primary fuses, one on the phase circuit and one on the neutral circuit. If the neutral opens, the phase may still be live.
Warning For SwitchBlade x908 AC models the grounding stud on the rear of the unit is for supplemental grounding only. The system must be supplied by a grounded 3 wire AC source through the power supply cord.
1.Plug the AC power cord that is provided into the power inlet on the PSU.
2.Connect the power cord to the main power source.
3.On the AT-PWR05, set the Run/Standby switch to Run.
4.Check that the PSU LED on the front panel of the switch is lit green. If the LED does not light, refer to the Hardware Reference for troubleshooting information.
Connecting a DC power supply
Follow these instructions to connect an AT-PWR01 DC PSU to a DC power supply. Only trained and qualified personnel should connect a DC power supply.
For centralised DC power connection, the switch should be installed in restricted access areas only, such as dedicated equipment rooms or equipment closets, in accordance with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Power supply specifications:
■40 to 60V, 48V nominal
■supports either positive grounded or negative grounded operation
■a 15Amp certified/listed circuit breaker is required for circuit protection
11
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908
Supply cable specifications:
■three-core cable is required
■minimum core size: 3.3mm2 (12 AWG) high strand count copper wire
■minimum cable rating: 600V, 90 degrees C
Warning Disconnect the power supply cable before starting this procedure.
1.Remove the transparent protective terminal cover.
2.Strip the supply cable wires to expose 7.5mm (0.31in.) of bare conductor. Terminate the wire with a nylon insulated solderless ring tongue terminal, JST FN5.5-5 or equivalent, using a crimp tool.
3.Connect the ground wire to the ground terminal. Use the diagram on the rear panel of the switch to identify terminals. Tighten the terminal to between 2.4 and 4.0 Nm (21.3 and 35.4 lbf in).
Caution Check that the PSU terminals are wired to the correct polarity. You will damage it if you incorrectly connect it.
4.Connect the positive feed to the + (positive) terminal and the negative feed to the - (negative) terminal. Tighten the terminals to between 2.4 and 4.0Nm (21.3 and 35.4 lbf in).
Note that the DC return input terminal must be connected as an Isolated DC return (DC-I).
5.Ensure there are no exposed cable strands.
6.Replace the cover. You must replace the transparent plastic terminal cover before continuing.
7.Secure the supply cable to the rack framework or a similar object to ensure that connections are isolated from any force applied to the cable.
8.Ensure the circuit breaker is off for the supply circuit and the Run/Standby switch on the PSU. Release the Run/Standby switch so that it is not pushed in (which is the Off position).
9.Connect the supply cable wires to the circuit breaker.
10.Turn on the PSU by pushing in the Run/Standby switch.
11.Confirm that the switch is receiving power.
Check that at least one of the PSU LEDs on the front panel of the switch is lit green. If no LEDs light, refer to the Hardware Reference for troubleshooting information.

Installation and Safety Guide
Connecting to the Switch
All x900 Series switches and the SwitchBlade x908 can be configured using the Command Line Interface (CLI). The procedure and command syntax varies depending on whether the switch is running the AlliedWare® operating system or the AlliedWare Plus™ operating system.
AT-9900 Series switches running the AlliedWare operating system can also be configured using the Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Before configuring the switch, you must make some basic connections explained in the following procedures:
■“Using the AlliedWare Plus Operating System CLI” on page 13
■“Using the AlliedWare Operating System CLI” on page 16
■“Using the AlliedWare Operating System GUI” on page 18
Before starting these procedures, ensure that the switch is connected to a power supply and receiving power.
Using the AlliedWare Plus Operating System CLI
Depending on the model, an ASYN0/CONSOLE and/or ETH0 port is on the front of the switch for installation and maintenance.
1.To use the ETH0 port, physically connect it to the terminal or PC, and check that the port’s LEDs are lit. This means a link has been established between the port and the PC. For NEBS compatibility, the cable must be shielded and grounded at both ends, especially if permanently connected.
The default configuration contains the following commands:
interface eth0
ip address 192.168.242.242/24
Set the PC to an IP address in the 192.168.242.0 subnet, and then establish a Telnet session to 192.168.242.242.
When x900-24XT, x900-24XT-N, x900-24XS, or SwitchBlade x908 switches are connected to form a virtual chassis stack (VCS), the ETH0 port has additional operational functions. See the Hardware Reference for more information.
13
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908
2.To use the ASYN0/CONSOLE port, physically connect it to the terminal or PC with the RJ-45 DB9 cable that is supplied. For NEBS compatibility, the cable must be shielded and grounded at both ends, especially if permanently connected.
Set communication parameters on your terminal or terminal emulation program to the following:
•bit rate: 9600
•data bits: 8
•parity: None
•stop bits: 1
•flow control: None
For information about terminal emulation, see Using Windows Terminal and HyperTerminal in the Hardware Reference.
3.Log in at the prompt.
If using the ASYN0/CONSOLE port, the login prompt is displayed after the switch has booted. If not, press the Enter key two or three times.
When the switch boots for the first time, it automatically creates an account with manager privileges. The login name for the account is manager and the password is friend.
At the login prompt, enter the login name and password as follows:
Login: manager
Password: friend
The switch’s command prompt is displayed upon successful login.
4.Change the password.
A manager account with the default password is a serious security risk. Remember the new password because there is no way to retrieve it if you forget it.
To change the account password, use the following commands:
awplus>enable
awplus#configure terminal
awplus(config)#username manager password <password>
