Safety precautions
DANGER
Batteries used for RTC/NVRAM backup are not located in operator-access areas. There is a risk of explosion if a battery
is replace by an incorrect type. Dispose of used components with batteries according to local ordinance and regulations.
CAUTION
Use a separate branch circuit for each power cord, which provides redundancy in case one of the circuits fails.
CAUTION
Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To determine the
possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the
device. Compare this total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the
devices near the input power connectors.
CAUTION
The power supply switch must be in the o position when you insert the power supply into the chassis. Damage to the
switch can result if a live power supply is installed.
CAUTION
Carefully follow the mechanical guides on each side of the power supply slot and make sure the power supply is properly
inserted in the guides. Never insert the power supply upside down.
NOTE
Device control processors and management modules may contain batteries for RTC or NVRAM backup. Dispose of
components containing batteries as required by local ordinances and regulations.

device on the surface. No other equipment is required for desktop installation.
•In a four-post EIA rack: You will need a Universal Four-Post Rack Kit (XBR-R000296) to install devices in EIA racks that are
between L-13.7 to 81.28 cm deep (L-5.0 to 32.0 in.), where L is the chassis depth.
•In a two-post Telco rack: You will need a Universal Two-Post Rack Kit (XBR-R000294) to install 1U and 2U devices in a twopost telecommunications (Telco) rack.
NOTE
Review the Safety Precautions before mounting the device.
Precautions specic to mounting
The following precautions
DANGER
Use safe lifting practices when moving the product.
DANGER
Mount the devices you install in a rack as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place
lighter devices above.
CAUTION
Make sure the airow around the front, and back of the device is not
restricted.
CAUTION
Never leave tools inside the chassis.
CAUTION
Do not use the port cover tabs to lift the module. They are not designed to support the weight of the module, which can fall
and be damaged.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the chassis and components, never attempt to lift the chassis using the fan or power supply handles.
These handles were not designed to support the weight of the chassis.
Complete the following steps to install the device as a standalone unit on a table.
1.Unpack the device and verify the items listed under Shipping carton contents on page 22 are present and undamaged.
2.Apply the adhesive rubber feet to the underside of the device. The rubber feet help prevent the device from sliding o the
supporting surface.
a)Clean the indentations at each corner of the bottom of the device to ensure that they are free of dust or other debris that
might lessen the adhesion of the feet.
b)With the adhesive side against the chassis, place one rubber foot in each indentation and press into place.
3.Place the device on a sturdy at surface.
4.Provide power to the device as described in Providing power to the device on page 51.
NOTE
Do not connect the device to the network until the IP address is set correctly. For instructions on how to set the IP
address, refer to Conguring the IP address on page 53.
Installing the Universal Four-Post Rack Kit (XBRR000296)
Use the following instructions to install 1U and 2U devices in EIA racks that are between L-12.7 to 81.28 cm deep (L-5.0 to 32.0 in.),
where L is the chassis depth, using the Universal Four-Post Rack Kit (XBR-R000296).
There are two ways you can mount the device in a four-post rack:
•With the port side ush with the front posts.
•With the nonport side ush with the rear posts in a recessed position. A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the
ber-optic cables connected to the switch and less interference in the aisle at the front of the rack.
TABLE 7 Space requirements

NoApplicable to port-side and nonport-side ush
YesApplicable to port-side ush mounts.LL-12.7 cm (L-5 in.)81.28 cm (32 in.)
YesApplicable to nonport-side ush mounts.LL81.28 cm (32 in.)
Note that if chassis depth (L) is less than 40.64 cm (16 in.), the chassis will not t into a rack with a maximum depth of 81.28 cm (32 in.)
using the universal four-post rack kit. The maximum rack depth for a chassis less than 40.64 cm (16 in.) is 81.28 cm (32 in.) minus the
dierence between the chassis depth and 40.64 cm (16 in.). For example, a chassis with a depth (L) of 35.56 cm (14 in.) is 5.08 cm (2
in.) smaller than 40.64 cm (16 in.), so it will install into a rack with a maximum depth of 81.28 cm (32 in.) - 5.08 cm (2 in.) = 76.2 cm
(30 in.).

Setting the date and time
Conguring the IP address
You can congure the device with a static IP address, or you can use a Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol (DHCP) server to set the IP
address of the switch. DHCP is enabled by default. The device supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.
Using DHCP to set the IP address
When using DHCP, the switch obtains its IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address from the DHCP server. The DHCP
client can only connect to a DHCP server that is on the same subnet as the switch. If your DHCP server is not on the same subnet as the
switch, use a static IP address.
Setting a static IP address
To set a static IP address for the device, complete the following steps.
1.Log in to the device as admin.
2.Use the ipaddrset command to set the Ethernet IP address.
•If you are going to use an IPv4 address, enter the IP address in dotted decimal notation as prompted.
Ethernet IP Address: [192.168.74.102]
•If you are going to use an IPv6 address, enter the network information in colon-separated notation as prompted.
device:admin> ipaddrset -ipv6 --add 1080::8:800:200C:417A/64
IP address is being changed...Done.
3.Complete the rest of the network information as prompted. (IPv4 format shown):
Ethernet Subnetmask: [255.255.255.0]
Ethernet IP Address: [192.168.74.102]
Gateway IP Address: [192.168.74.1]
4.Enter o to disable DHCP when prompted.
DHCP [OFF]: off
Setting the date and time
The date and time settings are used for logging events, error detection, and troubleshooting. However, device operation does not depend
on the date and time; a device with incorrect date or time values still functions properly.
You can synchronize the local time of the principal or primary fabric conguration server (FCS) device to that of an external Network Time
Protocol (NTP) server.
Perform the following steps to set the date and time.
2.Enter the date ["newdate"] command at the command line.
The newdate variable species the new date and time enclosed in double quotation marks. The operand is optional; if omitted,
the current date and time is displayed. Date and time are specied as a string in the mmddhhmmyy format:
•mm: Species the month. Valid values are 01 to 12.
•dd: Species the date. Valid values are 01 to 31.
•hh: Species the hour. Valid values are 00 to 23.
•mm: Species the minutes. Valid values are 00 to 59.
•yy: Species the year, valid values are 00 to 37 and 70 to 99. Year values from 70 to 99 are interpreted as 1970 to
1999; year values from 00 to 37 are interpreted as 2000 to 2037.

Time and items required
The installation or replacement procedure for one transceiver takes less than ve minutes. Ensure that the following items are available:
•Required number of compatible power cables
•Required number of supported Brocade-branded transceivers
Refer to the Fabric OS Release Notes for the list of supported transceivers and cables.
Most Brocade switches, backbones, and directors come with a transceiver extraction tool and holster. The extraction
tool is designed to remove transceivers from modules where the space is limited.
Use only optical transceivers that are qualied by Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. and comply with the FDA Class
1 radiation performance requirements dened in 21 CFR Subchapter I, and with IEC 60825 and EN60825. Optical
products that do not comply with these standards might emit light that is hazardous to the eyes.
CAUTION
Before plugging a cable into any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable by touching the electrical
contacts to ground surface.
Cleaning the ber-optic connectors
To avoid problems with the connection between the ber-optic transceiver (SFP+ or QSFP) and the ber cable connectors, Brocade
strongly recommends cleaning both connectors each time you disconnect and reconnect them. Dust can accumulate on the connectors
and cause problems such as reducing the optic launch power.
To clean the
connector, make sure to keep the protective covering in place.
ber cable connectors, Brocade recommends using a ber-optic reel-type cleaner. When not using an SFP+, or QSFP
Managing cables
The minimum bend radius for a 50 micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load. Cables can be
organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using cable channels on the sides of the rack or patch panels to minimize
cable management. Follow these recommendations:
NOTE
You should not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easily overtightened and can damage the optic
bers.
CAUTION
Before plugging a cable into any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable by touching the electrical
contacts to ground surface.
•Plan for rack space required for cable management before installing the switch.
•Leave at least 1 m (3.28 ft) of slack for each port cable. This provides room to remove and replace the switch, allows for
inadvertent movement of the rack, and helps prevent the cables from being bent to less than the minimum bend radius.
•If you are using Brocade ISL Trunking, consider grouping cables by trunking groups. The cables used in trunking groups must
meet specic requirements, as described in the Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide .
•For easier maintenance, label the ber-optic cables and record the devices to which they are connected.
•Keep LEDs visible by routing port cables and other cables away from the LEDs.
•Use hook and loop style straps to secure and organize ber-optic cables.

Replacing an SFP+ transceiver
Installing an SFP+ transceiver
The device supports only Brocade-qualied transceivers. If you use an unqualied transceiver, the switchshow command output shows
the port in a Mod_Inv state. Fabric OS also logs the issue in the system error log. To insert an SFP+ transceiver, complete the following
steps:
NOTE
The 16- and 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers do not have bails. Always use the pull tab to insert or remove the transceivers, as the
SFP might be hot.
1.Use the pull tab on the 16- and 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers to help push the transceiver into the port. Transceivers are keyed
so that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly
oriented. Push the correctly oriented transceiver into the port until it is rmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.
NOTE
Each SFP+ transceiver has a 10-pad gold-plated PCB-edge connector on the bottom. The correct position to insert
an SFP+ transceiver into the upper row of ports is with the gold edge down. The correct position to insert an SFP+
transceiver into the lower row of ports is with the gold edge up.
2.Position a cable so that the key (the ridge on one side of the cable connector) is aligned with the slot in the transceiver. Insert the
cable into the transceiver until the latching mechanism clicks.
NOTE
Cables are keyed so that they can be inserted in only one way. If a cable does not slide in easily, ensure that it is
correctly oriented. Do not insert any unsupported cable intended for an other type of transceiver into a regular SFP+
transceiver. You may damage the cable as well as the transceiver.
Replacing an SFP+ transceiver
Complete the following steps to remove and then install a new SFP+ transceiver.
NOTE
16- and 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers have pull tabs instead of bails. Always use the pull tab to insert or remove the SFP+
transceivers, as the SFP might be hot.
1.Remove any cables that are inserted into the transceiver.
2.Grasp the SFP+ transceiver pull tab and pull the tab straight out.
NOTE
Grasp the tab near the body of the transceiver to reduce the chances of bending the pull tab. As the SFP may be hot,
avoid touching it.
3.To insert the replacement transceiver, use the pull tab on the SFP+ transceiver to carefully push the transceiver into the port.
Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily,
ensure that it is correctly oriented.

Installing a QSFP transceiver
The device supports only Brocade
the port in a Mod_Inv state. Fabric OS also logs the issue in the system error log. To insert an QSFP transceiver, complete the following
steps:
NOTE
QSFP transceivers have pull tabs rather then bails. Always use the pull tab to insert or remove the QSFP transceivers, as the
QSFP might be hot.
1.Use the pull tab on these transceivers to help push the transceiver into the port. Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be
inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented. Push the correctly
oriented transceiver into the port until it is rmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.

can be several minutes. The POST can be omitted after subsequent reboots by using the fastboot command or entering the
diagDisablePost command to persistently disable the POST. The success or failure results of the diagnostic tests that run during POST
can be monitored through LED activity, the error log, or the command line interface. During the POST, the LEDs ashdierent colors.
6853-1003990-06
Brocade G620 Hardware Installation Guide
Running diagnostic tests
The POST includes the following tasks:
•Conducts preliminary POST diagnostics.
•Initializes the operating system.
•Initializes hardware.
•Runs diagnostic tests on several functions, including circuitry, port functionality, memory, statistics counters, and serialization.
Perform the following steps to determine whether POST completed successfully and whether any errors were detected.
1.Verify that the LEDs on the device indicate that all components are healthy. If one or more LEDs do not display a healthy state:
a)Verify that the LEDs are not set to "beacon" (this can be determined through the switchShow command or Web Tools).
b)Follow the recommended action for the observed LED behavior.
2.Verify the diagShow command displays that the diagnostic status for all ports in the device is OK.
3.Review the system log for errors. Errors detected during POST are written to the system log, which can be viewed by using the
errShow command.
Interpreting the BOOT results
BOOT includes the following tasks after POST is complete.
1.Performs universal port
2.Initializes links.
3.Analyzes the fabric. If any ports are connected to other switches, the switch participates in a fabric conguration.
4.Obtains a domain ID and assigns port addresses.
5.Constructs unicast routing tables.
6.Enables normal port operation.
conguration.
Running diagnostic tests
In addition to the POST, Fabric OS includes diagnostic tests to help you troubleshoot the hardware and
internal connections and circuitry, xed media, and the transceivers and cables in use.
The tests are implemented by command, either through a Telnet session or through a terminal set up for a serial connection to the
device. Some tests require the ports to be connected by external cables to allow diagnostics to verify the serializer/deserializer interface,
transceiver, and cable. Some tests require loopback plugs.
Diagnostic tests are run at supported link speeds depending on the speed of the link being tested and the type of port.
NOTE
Diagnostic tests may temporarily lock the transmit and receive speed of the links during diagnostic testing.

Power supply and fan assembly overview
The power supply and fan assembly units in the Brocade G620 chassis can be removed and replaced without special tools. The device
can continue operating during the replacement.
The device supports the following types of power supplies.
•AC power supply with nonport-side air exhaust. This unit moves the air from the port-side to the nonport-side of the device.
•AC power supply with nonport-side air intake. This unit moves the air from the nonport-side to the port-side of the device.
FIGURE 29 AC power supply and fan assembly
1.Fan 3
2.Fan 2
3.AC power cable receptacle
4.Power supply and fan assembly status LED
NOTE
The two power supply and fan assemblies concurrently installed in the chassis must be of the same power type, model (airow
direction), and part number. If the airow directions are dierent, an error is generated on the console.
Precautions specic to the power supply and fan assemblies
NOTE
The power supply and fan assembly units are hot-swappable if they are replaced one at a time. They are identical and t into
either slot.
NOTE
The device can operate all the ports with one power supply and fan assembly unit if you do not require redundancy.
The device fans are xed inside the combined power supply and fan assemblies to provide necessary airow to cool the whole system.
There are three fans located in each unit. The system software sets fan speed and measures fan speed through the tachometer interface.
Precautions specic to the power supply and fan
assemblies
DANGER
Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord supplied with the device to
connect it to the power source.
DANGER
If the installation requires a dierent power cord than the one supplied with the device, make sure you use a power cord
displaying the mark of the safety agency that denes the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your
assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.
CAUTION
Disassembling any part of the power supply and fan assembly voids the warranty and regulatory certications. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside the power supply and fan assembly.
CAUTION
Ensure that the airow direction of the power supply unit matches that of the installed fan tray. The power supplies and fan
trays are clearly labeled with either a green arrow with an "E", or an orange arrow with an "I."
CAUTION
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot ller panel in place. If you run the chassis
with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
CAUTION
Use a separate branch circuit for each power cord, which provides redundancy in case one of the circuits fails.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the chassis and components, never attempt to lift the chassis using the fan or power supply handles.
These handles were not designed to support the weight of the chassis.
NOTE
The equipment installation must meet NEC/CEC code requirements. Consult local authorities for regulations.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is above the recommended operational limits, the power supply units shutdown, which in turn shuts
down the device without any warning message.
