The S4810–ON System
The following sections describe the Dell Networking S4810–ON system.
Introduction
The Dell Networking S4810–ON platform is a next-generation switch/router designed to meet the
requirements for distributed data center cores.
It is a one-rack unit (RU) chassis that supports 48 ports of 10GbE small form-factor pluggable plus (SFP+)
and four quad small form-factor pluggable plus (QSFP+) ports. For system access, the S4810–ON
includes an RS-232/RJ-45 console port and a management port for system access.
The S4810–ON input/output (I/O) side (shown in the following illustration) contains the 48 ports of
10GbE and four uplink ports of 40GbE QSFP+ autosensing ports and management ports.

Site Preparations
The S4810–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 S4810–ON specifications, refer to Specifications.
NOTE: Install the S4810–ON system into a rack or cabinet before installing any optional
components.
Site Selection
Install Dell Networking 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 S4810–ON system meets the following safety requirements:
• Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as
defined by your local electrical codes.
• Environmental temperature between 32° to 104°F (from 0° to 40°C).
• Relative humidity that does not exceed 85 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.
• Positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, rear, and sides of the
S4810–ON for proper ventilation and access.
Cabinet Placement
Install the S4810–ON only in indoor cabinets designed for use in a controlled environment.
Do not install the S4810–ON in outside plant cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, refer to Site
Selection.
The cabinet must be a minimum cabinet size. Airflow must be according to 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.
Site Preparations
11
Rack Mounting
When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is earth ground.
Ground the equipment rack to the same ground point the power service in your area uses. The ground
path must be permanent.
Grounding (Optional)
Use the S4810–ON in a common bond network (CBN).
Connect the grounding cables as described in Attaching the Ground Cable.
Fans and Airflow
The S4810–ON fans support two airflow options.
Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site’s ventilation. Use a single type of airflow fan in your
system. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single S4810–ON chassis.
• Normal — airflow is from the I/O panel to the power supply. The grab-handle is labeled Exhaust.
• Reversed — airflow is from the power supply to the I/O panel. The grab-handle is labeled Intake.
For proper ventilation, position the S4810–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 S4810–ON systems near
each other, position the two chassis at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart to permit proper airflow. The
acceptable ambient temperature ranges are listed in Specifications.
The fan speed increases and decreases automatically based on the system’s state and temperature. The
switch never intentionally turns off the fans.
NOTE: Power Supplies and Fan Modules are field replaceable units. Dell Networking does not
support a mix of power supply types (such as, AC and DC) in the same switch. If a power supply is
added or replaced, it MUST match the existing type of power supply (such as, AC and AC or DC and
DC).
Power
To connect the chassis to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cord with the S4810–
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 as soon as 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.

Site Preparations
Storing Components
If you do not install your S4810–ON and components immediately, Dell Networking recommends
properly storing the system and all optional components until you are ready to install them.
WARNING: ESD damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always wear an ESDpreventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S4810–ON and its accessories. After you
remove the original packaging, place the S4810–ON and its components on an antistatic surface.
Follow these storage guidelines:
• Storage temperature must remain constant ranging from -40° to 158°F (from -40°C to 70°C).
• Store on a dry surface or floor, away from direct sunlight, heat, and air conditioning ducts.
• Store in a dust-free environment.
