disconnect all power cords before servicing.
DANGER
Remove both power cords before servicing.
DANGER
Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the device.
DANGER
To avoid high voltage shock, do not open the device while the power is on.
DANGER
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according
to the instructions.
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 off 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.
Lifting and weight-related precautions
DANGER
Use safe lifting practices when moving the product.
DANGER

Standalone installation
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.
Standalone installation
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 23 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 off 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 flat 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 Configuring the IP address on page 53.
Installing the Universal Four-Post Rack Kit (XBR-R000296)
Use the following instructions to install a device 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 flush with the front posts
• With the nonport side flush with the rear posts in a recessed position
A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the fiber-optic cables connected to the switch and
less interference in the aisle at the front of the rack.
NOTE
Although this document describes how to install both single height (1U) and double height (2U)
switches, the illustrations show a 1U switch as a typical installation.

Note that if chassis depth (L) is less than 40.64 cm (16 in.), the chassis will not fit 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 difference 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.).
• Verify that the additional weight of the device does not exceed the rack weight limits.
• Ensure that an electrical branch circuit with the following characteristics is available:
‐ Required voltage and frequency as indicated in the Technical Specifications (200-240 VAC is
always preferred).
‐ Protection by a circuit breaker in accordance with local electrical codes.
‐ Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size that conform to the electrical rating on the device
nameplate.
‐ Grounded outlet compatible with the power cord and installed by a licensed electrician.
• Ensure that all equipment installed in the rack is grounded through a reliable branch circuit
connection. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.
• Ensure that the rack is mechanically secured to ensure stability.
• Ensure that the air temperature at the fan inlet is less than 40oC (104oF) during device operation.
• Ensure that the airflow available at the air vents meets the minimum requirements for the device.

NOTE
Passwords can be 8 to 40 characters long. They must begin with an alphabetic character. They can
include numeric characters, the period (.), and the underscore (_) only. Passwords are casesensitive, and they are not displayed when you enter them on the command line.
Configuring the IP address
You can configure the device with a static IP address, or you can use a Dynamic Host Configuration
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.
Configuring the 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 off 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.
Brocade G620 Hardware Installation Guide 53

You can synchronize the local time of the principal or primary fabric configuration server (FCS) device
to that of an external Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
Perform the following steps to set the date and time.
1. Log in to the device as admin.
2. Enter the date ["newdate"] command at the command line.
The newdate variable specifies 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 specified
as a string in the mmddhhmmyy format:
• mm: Specifies the month. Valid values are 01 to 12.
• dd: Specifies the date. Valid values are 01 to 31.
• hh: Specifies the hour. Valid values are 00 to 23.
• mm: Specifies the minutes. Valid values are 00 to 59.
• yy: Specifies 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.

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 fiber-optic connectors
To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber-optic transceiver (SFP+ or QSFP) and the
fiber 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 fiber cable connectors, Brocade recommends using a fiber-optic reel-type cleaner. When
not using an SFP+, or QSFP connector, make sure to keep the protective covering in place.
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 fibers.
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 specific requirements, as described in the Fabric OS
Administrator’s Guide .
• For easier maintenance, label the fiber-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 fiber-optic cables.
Installing an SFP+ transceiver
The device supports only Brocade-qualified transceivers. If you use an unqualified 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.
Installing an SFP+ transceiver
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 firmly 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.

Interpreting port-side LEDs
System activity and status can be determined through the activity of the LEDs on the switch. There are
three possible LED states: no light, a steady light, and a flashing light. Flashing lights may be slow, fast,
or flickering. The lights are green or amber. Sometimes, the LEDs flash either of the colors during boot,
POST, or other diagnostic tests. This is normal; it does not indicate a problem unless the LEDs do not
indicate a healthy state after all boot processes and diagnostic tests are complete.

Interpreting the POST results
Each time the switch is powered on, rebooted, or reset, the switch performs a power-on self-test
(POST). Total boot time with the POST can be several minutes. The POST can be omitted after
subsequent reboots by using the fastboot command or entering the diagDisablePost command to
Brocade G620 Hardware Installation Guide 71
53-1003990-01
Page 72
Interpreting the BOOT results
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 flash different colors.
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 configuration.
2. Initializes links.
3. Analyzes the fabric. If any ports are connected to other switches, the switch participates in a fabric
configuration.
4. Obtains a domain ID and assigns port addresses.
5. Constructs unicast routing tables.
6. Enables normal port operation.
Running diagnostic tests
In addition to the POST, Fabric OS includes diagnostic tests to help you troubleshoot the hardware
and firmware. This includes tests of internal connections and circuitry, fixed 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.

Precautions specific to the power supply and fan assemblies
NOTE
The two power supply and fan assemblies concurrently installed in the chassis must be of the same
type (AC), model (airflow direction), and part number. If the airflow directions are different, an error is
generated on the console.
NOTE
The power supply and fan assembly units are hot-swappable if they are replaced one at a time. They
are identical and fit 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 fixed inside the combined power supply and fan assemblies to provide necessary
airflow 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 specific 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 different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines 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 certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the power supply and fan
assembly.
CAUTION
Ensure that the airflow 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 filler panel in
place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
76 Brocade G620 Hardware Installation Guide
53-1003990-01
Page 77
Identifying the airflow direction
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.
Identifying the airflow direction
The power supply and fan assemblies are identified by the following airflow directions:
• Intake power supply and fan assembly with an orange "I" label or without any label: Pulls air
from the nonport-side of the switch and exhausts it out the port side.
• Exhaust power supply and fan assembly with a green "E" label: Pulls air from the port side of the
switch and exhausts it out the nonport-side.
• Nonport-side air intake
• Port-side air exhaust
• Back-to-front (nonport-side to port-side) airflow
• Part numbers ending with -R
• Nonport-side air exhaust
• Port-side air intake
• Front-to-back (port-side to nonport-side) airflow
• Part numbers ending with -F
