Site selection

Install the switch 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. The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.
Ensure that the area where you install your switch meets the following safety requirements:
Near an adequate power source. Connect the switch to the appropriate branch circuit protection according to your local electrical codes.
Switch environmental temperature range is from 0° to 45°C (32° to 113°F).
Relative humidity is from 5 to 90 percent noncondensing.
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
Inside the restricted access area that is positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, back, and sides for proper ventilation and access
Install the switch in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.
For more information about switch storage and environmental temperatures, see Specifications.

Cabinet placement

Install the Z9332F-ON switch only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.
Do not install the switch in outside cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, see Site selection.
The cabinet must meet minimum size requirements. Airflow 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.
12 Site preparations

Switch ground

Dell EMC recommends you ground your switch. Use the Z9332F-ON switch in a common bond network (CBN).
Connect the grounding cables as described in Z9332F-ON switch installation.
NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cord provides a ground path, Dell EMC
recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire.

Fans and airflow

Fan installation is done as part of the factory installation. The Z9332F-ON switch supports AC PSU with fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU.
The fans ship preinstalled with airflow from the I/O to the PSU. Optionally, you can order and install fans with airflow from the PSU to the I/O.
Fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU—normal
Fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse
CAUTION: Switches with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse airflow—are subject to tighter restrictions for
power consumption on cables and optics that are used for 400 GbE ports. Reverse airflow switches do not support high-
power cables or optics. 400 GbE transceivers and active cables may exceed the supported threshold.
CAUTION: Review the optics specification sheet to understand which models support airflow from the I/O to the PSU
(normal) and which support airflow from the PSU to I/O (reverse).
NOTE: Use a single type of airflow fan in your switch. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single switch.
For proper ventilation, position the switch 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 Z9332F-ON switches near each other, to permit proper airflow, position the two switches at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart. The fan speed varies based on internal temperature monitoring. The Z9332F-ON switch never intentionally turns off the fans.
For more information, see Fans.

Power

To connect the switch to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cable. An AC power cable is included with each PSU.
When installing AC switches, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, where applicable.
The switch is powered-up when you connect the power cable between the switch and the power source. For more information, see
Power supplies.
CAUTION:
cables. Before servicing, ensure that all power cords are disconnected.
CAUTION: On an AC switch, use the power supply cord as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is
located and installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.
NOTE: PSU airflow must match the airflow direction of the fans. The fans ship preinstalled with airflow from the I/O to
the PSU. Optionally, you can order and install fans with airflow from the PSU to the I/O.
NOTE: Module power is software that is controlled. You do not see module LEDs when the switch powers up in ONIE.
Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply slots. The switch has multiple power

Storing components

If you do not install your Z9332F-ON switch and components immediately, properly store the switch and all components using these guidelines:

Power supplies

The Z9332F-ON switch ships with two AC power supplies that support air-flow from the I/O to the PSU. From the PSU-side of the switch, PSU1 is on the right side; PSU2 is on the left side.
Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the switch can operate with a single PSU.
The PSUs are field replaceable. When running with full redundancy—two power supplies installed and running—you can remove and replace one PSU without disrupting traffic.
CAUTION: To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the Z9332F-ON switch is grounded properly. If you do not ground
your equipment correctly, excessive emissions may result. Use a qualified electrician to ensure that the power cables
meet your local electrical requirements.
NOTE: PSU airflow must match the airflow direction of the fans. The fans ship preinstalled with airflow from the I/O to
the PSU. Optionally, you can order and install fans with airflow from the PSU to the I/O.
NOTE: Connect the power supply to the appropriate branch circuit protection as defined by your local electrical codes.
Verify that the remote power source complies with the switch input power specifications.
NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Use power supply 2 (PSU2) as the blank plate
slot. To install the blank plate, use a #1 Philips screw driver.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap
when handling the Z9332F-ON switch and components.

Fans

The Z9332F-ON switch comes from the factory with two PSUs and seven fan modules that are installed in the switch. Fan module airflow is from the I/O to the PSU or from the PSU to the I/O. The fan modules and power supplies, which have integrated fans, are hot­swappable.
The fans ship preinstalled with airflow from the I/O to the PSU. From the PSU-side of the switch, fans are numbered from the right to the left. For example, FAN1 is on the right side of the switch; FAN7 is on the left side of the switch. Optionally, you can order and install fans with airflow from the PSU to the I/O.
Fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU—normal airflow direction
Fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse airflow direction
CAUTION: Switches with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse airflow—are subject to tighter restrictions for
power consumption on cables and optics that are used for 400 GbE ports. Reverse airflow switches do not support high-
power cables or optics. 400 GbE transceivers and active cables may exceed the supported threshold.
CAUTION: Review the optics specification sheet to understand which models support airflow from the I/O to the PSU
(normal) and which support airflow from the PSU to I/O (reverse).
NOTE: All fans and PSUs in a configuration must be in the same airflow direction.
Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time that is required between fan replacements. Check the environmental factors regularly. An increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might affect performance—for example, new equipment installation).

ONIE service discovery

ONIE attempts to locate the installer through several discovery methods.
To download and run an installer, the ONIE Service Discovery feature follows these steps in order and uses the first successful method found:
1. Search locally attached storage devices for one of the ONIE default installer filenames—for example, onie self update from the USB.
2. Discover TFTP-based image from the DHCP server.
3. Query to the IPv6 link-local neighbors using HTTP for an installer.
If none of the ONIE Service Discovery methods are successful, you can disable this using the onie-discovery-stop command.
You can install an operating system manually from HTTP, FTP, TFTP. or USB using the onie-nos-install <URL> command.
NOTE:
If you have a recovery USB plugged into your switch, you must remove it before using the onie-nos-install
command.
The ONIE Install environment uses DHCP to assign an IP address to the management interface—eth0. If that fails, it uses the default IP address 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0.
To display the IP address, use the ifconfig eth0 command, as shown.
ONIE:/ # ifconfig eth0
