Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to e nsure your own personal safety and to help pr otect your system from potential damage.
Throughout this safety section, the ca ution icon (
) is used to indicate cautions and precautions that need to be reviewed and
followed.
Safety Cautions
To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electrical shock, fire, and damage to the equipment observe the following precautions:
• Observe and follow service markings.
• Do not service any product except as explained in the system documentation.
• Opening or r emoving co vers that ar e marked with the tri angular symb ol with a l ightning bolt may exp ose the us er to
electrical shock.
• Only a trained service technician should service components inside these compartments.
• If any of the following conditions occur, unplug the product from the electrical outlet and replace the part or contact your
trained service provider:
• Damage to the power cable, extension cable, or plug.
• An object has fallen into the prod uct.
• The product has been exposed to water.
• The product has been dropped or damaged.
• The product does not operate correctly when the operating instructions are correctly followed.
• Keep your system away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents.
• Do not spill food or liquids on system components, and never operate the product in a wet environment. If the system gets
wet, see the appropriate section in the troubleshooting guide or contact your trained service provider.
• Do not push a ny objects int o the openin gs of the syste m. Doing so ca n cause fire or electric shock by shor ting out inte rior
components.
• Use the product only with approved equipment.
• Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
• Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings label. If unsure of the type
of power source required, consult your service provider or local power company.
• To help avoid damaging the system, be sure t he voltage s election switch (if p rovided) on the po wer supply is set to match the
power available at the Switch’ s lo c a tion:
• 115 volts (V)/60 hertz (Hz) in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South Korea
and Taiwan
• 100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60 Hz in western Japan
• 230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East
• Also, be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available in your location.
• Use only approved power cable(s). If you have not been provided with a power cable for your system or for any AC-
powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable that is approved for use in your country. The power cable
must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the product's electrical ratings label. The voltage and
current rating of the cable should be greater than the ratings marked on the product.
vi
xStack® DGS-3400 Series L a yer 2 Gig abit Ethernet Managed Switch
• To help prevent electric shock, plug the system and peripheral power cables into properly grounded electrical outlets. These
cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding. Do not use adapter plugs or remove the
grounding prong from a cable. If using an exte ns ion cable is necessary, use a 3-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
• Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products plugged into the
extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings limit for the extension cable or power strip.
• To help protect the system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use a surge suppressor, line
conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
• Position system cables and power cables carefully; route cables so that they cannot be stepped on or tripped over. Be sure
that nothing rests on any cables.
• Do not modify power cables or plugs. Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site modifications. Always
follow your local/natio nal wiring rules.
• When connecting or disconnecting power to hot-pluggable power supplies, if offered with your system, observe the
following guidelines:
• Install the power supply before connecting the power cable to the power supply.
• Unplug the power cable before removing the power supply.
• If the system has multiple sources of power, disconnect power from the system by unplugging all power cables from
the power supplies.
• Move products with care; ensure that all casters and/or stabilizers are firmly connected to the system. Avoid sudden stops
and uneven surfaces.
General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products
Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also, refer to the rack installation documentation accompanying
the system and the rack for specific caution statements and procedures.
• Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, "component" refers to any system as well as to various peripherals
or supporting hardware.
• Before working on the rack, make sure that the stabilizers are secured to the rack, extended to the floor, and that the full
weight of the rack rests on the floor. Install front and side stabilizers on a single rack or front stabilizers for jo ined multiple
racks befor e working on the rack.
CAUTION: Installing s yste ms in a rack without t he f ront and s ide sta bilizers insta lled c ould
cause the rack to t ip o ver , pote nti al l y resul tin g in bo di l y inj ury under certain c irc u m s tances .
Therefore, always install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack. After
installing s ystem/components in a rack , never pull more than one component out of the
rack on its slide assemblies at one time. The weight of more than one extended
component could cause the rack to tip over and may result in serious injury.
• Always load the rack from the bo ttom up, and load the heaviest item in the rack first.
• Make sure that the rack is level and stable before extending a component from the rack.
• Use caution when pressing the component rail release latches and sliding a co mponent into or out of a rack; the slid e rails
can pinch your finge r s.
• After a component is inserted into the rack, car efully extend the rail into a locking position, and then slid e the component
into the rack.
• Do not overload the AC supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack. The total rack load should not exceed 80
percent of the branch circuit rating.
• Ensure that proper airflow is provided to components in the rack.
vii
xStack® DGS-3400 Series L a yer 2 Gig abit Ethernet Managed Switch
cable is omitted or
• Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
NOTE: A qualified electrician must perform all connections to DC power and to safety
grounds. All electrical wiring must comply with applicable local or national codes and
practices.
CAUTION: Never defeat the ground conductor or ope rate the equipm ent in the absence
of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection
authority or an electrician if uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
CAUTION: The s ystem chassis m ust be positively grounded to the rack cabinet f rame.
Do not attempt to connect power to the system until grounding cables are connected.
Completed power and safety ground wiring must be inspected by a qualified electrical
inspector. An energy hazard will exist if the safety ground
disconnected.
Lithium Batter y Precauti on
CAUTION: Incorrectl y repla cing th e lithium batter y of the Sw itch m ay cause the b atter y to
explode. Replace this batter y only with the sam e or equi valent type r ecomm ended by the
manufacturer. Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer instructions.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge
Static electricity can harm delicate components inside the system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your
body before touching any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor. This can be done by periodically touching an
unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
The following steps can also be taken prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD):
1. When unpack ing a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component from the antistatic
packing material until read y to install the component in the system. Just before un wrapping the antistatic packa ging, be
sure to discharge static electricity from your bod y.
2. When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
3. Handle all sensitive compone nts in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads, workbench pads and an
antistatic grounding str a p.

This LED will light when the internal power has failed and the RPS has taken over the
power supply to the Switch. Otherwise, it will remain dark.
One row of LEDs for each port is located above the ports on the front panel. The indicator
above the left side of a port corresponds to the port below the indicator in the upper row
of ports. The indicator above the right side of a port corresponds to the port below the
indicator in the lower row of ports. A steady green light denotes a valid 1000Mbps link on
the port while a blinking green light indicates activity on the port (at 1000Mbps). A steady
orange light denotes a valid 10 or 100Mbps link on the port while a blinking orange light
indicates activity on the port (at 100Mbps). These LEDs will remain dark if there is no link
on the port.
A steady green light denotes a valid link on the port while a blinking green light indicates
activity on the port. These LEDs will remain dark if there is no link on the port.
LED indicators for the Combo ports are located above the ports and numbered 1 – 4 for
Combo 1, Combo 2, etc. ports. A steady green light denotes a valid link on the port while
a blinking green light indicates activity on the port. These LEDs will remain dark if there is
no link on the port.
These two seven segment LEDs display the current switch stack order of the Switch while
in use.
