5000 Series Data Center Switches Hardware Installation Guide
Safety Cautions
To greatly reduce the risk of physical injury, electrical shock, fire, and damage to equipment, observe the following
precautions.
Observe and follow service markings:
• Do not attempt to service any product, except when it is explained in the system’s documentation.
• Opening or removing covers that are marked with this () symbol may expose the user to electrical
shock.
•Only a trained service technician should service components inside these compartments.
If any of the following conditions occur, contact your trained service provider or unplug the product from the electrical
outlet and replace the part:
• Damage to the power cable, extension cable, or plug.
• An object has fallen into the product.
• 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.
General safety cautions:
• Keep the system away from radiators and other 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, contact your trained service provider.
•Do not push any objects into the openings of the system. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting
out interior components.
• Only use this product with approved equipment.
• Allow the product to cool before removing the cover 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.
• 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.
•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 extension cable is necessary, use a 3wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
•Be aware of the 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 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 or national wiring rules.
When connecting or disconnecting power to and from hot-pluggable power supplies, 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 and ensure that all casters and stabilizers are firmly connected to the system. Avoid
sudden stops and uneven surfaces.
To help avoid damage to the system, be sure that the voltage selection switch on the power supply is set to match the
power available at the switch’s location:
iv
5000 Series Data Center Switches Hardware Installation Guide
•115 V / 60 Hz is used mostly in North and South America as well as Far Eastern countries like as South Korea
and Taiwan
• 100 V / 50 Hz is used mostly in Eastern Japan and 100 V / 60 Hz in Western Japan
• 230 V / 50 Hz is used mostly in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and the Far East
CAUTION: Using an incorrect or unsupported battery type with the switch may cause
battery explosion. Only use batteries compatible with the switch.
General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products
Please pay careful attention to the following precautions concerning rack stability and safety. Systems are considered
to be components in a rack. Thus, a component refers to any system, as well as to various peripherals or supporting
hardware:
CAUTION: Always install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack.
Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the
rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. After
installing systems in a rack, never pull more than one system 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.
•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 joined multiple racks before working on the rack.
• Always load the rack from the bottom 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 component into or out of a rack;
the slide rails can pinch your fingers.
•After a component is inserted into the rack, carefully extend the rail into a locking position, and then slide 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.
• Do not step on or stand on any component when servicing other components in a rack.
CAUTION: Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment 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 system chassis must be positively grounded to the rack cabinet frame.
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 exis t if the safety ground cable is omitted or
disconnected.
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):
v
5000 Series Data Center Switches Hardware Installation Guide
•When unpacking a static-sensitive component from its shipping carton, do not remove the component from
the antistatic packing material until ready to install the component in the system. Just before unwrapping the
antistatic packaging, be sure to discharge static electricity from your body.
• When transporting a sensitive component, first place it in an antistatic container or packaging.
• Handle all sensitive components in a static-safe area. If possible, use antistatic floor pads, workbench pads
and an antistatic grounding strap.
