Site preparations

The S4048–ON is suitable for installation as part of a common bond network (CBN).

You can install the system in:

• Network telecommunication facilities

• Data centers

• Other locations where the National Electric Code (NEC) applies

For more information about S4048–ON specications, see Specications.

NOTE: Install the S4048–ON system into a rack or cabinet before installing any optional components.

Topics:

• Site selection

• Cabinet placement

• Rack mounting

• System ground

• Fans and airow

• Power

• Storing components

Site selection

Install Dell equipment in restricted access areas.

A restricted access area is one in which service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key or other means of security and
access is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.

Ensure that the area where you install your S4048–ON system meets the following safety requirements:

• Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as dened by your local electrical
codes.

• Environmental temperature between 32° to 113°F (from 0° to 45°C).

• The switch operating ambient temperature range is from 10° to 35°C (from 50° to 95°F).

• Operating humidity is from 5 to 85 percent non-condensing.

• Storage humidity is from 5 to 95 percent non-condensing.

• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot air vents or direct sunlight.

• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.

• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, rear, and sides of the S4048–ON for proper
ventilation and access.

Cabinet placement

Install the S4048–ON only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.

Do not install the S4048–ON in outside cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, see Site Selection.

3

12 Site preparations

The cabinet must meet minimum size requirements. Airow must be in accordance with the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standard.
Ensure that there is a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) between the intake and exhaust vents and the cabinet wall.

Rack mounting

When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is grounded.

Ground the equipment rack to the same ground point the power service in your area uses. The ground path must be permanent.

System ground

Dell recommends you ground you system. Use the S4048–ON in a common bond network (CBN).

Connect the grounding cables as described in Install the S4048–ON.

Fans and airow

The S4048–ON fans support two airow options.

Fan combinations

The S4048-ON has stock keeping units (SKUs) that support the following congurations. Installation of the fans is done as part of the
factory install based on SKU type.

• AC PSU with fan airow from the I/O-side to the PSU-side

• AC PSU with fan airow from the PSU-side to the I/O-side

Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site’s ventilation. Use a single type of airow fan in your system. Do not mix reverse and
normal air ows in a single S4048–ON chassis.

For proper ventilation, position the S4048-ON in an equipment rack (or cabinet) with a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around
the exhaust vents. When you install two S4048-ON systems near each other, position the two chassis at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart to
permit proper airow. The fan speed increases when the internal temperature reaches 161.6°F (72°C) and decreases to normal speed
when the temperature falls to 136.4°F (58°C). The S4048-ON never intentionally turns o the fans.

Power

To connect the chassis to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cord with the S4048–ON. An AC power cord is included
with the system.

When installing AC systems, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 where applicable.

The system is powered-up when the power cord is connected between the system and the power source.

CAUTION

: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply slots.

CAUTION: Use the power supply cord as the main disconnect device on the AC system. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located/

installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.

Storing components

If you do not install your S4048–ON and components immediately, Dell recommends properly storing the system and all optional
components by following these guidelines.

• Storage location temperature must remain constant ranging from -40° to 158°F (from -40°C to 70°C).

Site preparations

13

• Store on a dry surface or oor, away from direct sunlight, heat, and air conditioning ducts.

• Store in a dust-free environment.

NOTE: ESD damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap

when handling the S4048–ON and its accessories. After you remove the original packaging, place the S4048–ON and its
components on an anti-static surface.
