Preparing for installation
ESD prevention
To prevent electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, wear an ESD wrist strap
and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded before you touch any switch
module.
Figure 1 Attaching an ESD wrist strap (S12516X-AF switch)
(1) ESD jack (with an ESD sign)
Examining the installation site
The switch must be used indoors. To make sure the switch operates correctly and to prolong its service
lifetime, the installation site must meet the load-bearing, temperature, humidity, cleanness, EMI,
grounding, power supply, ventilation, and space requirements. Reserve a minimum of 1.2 m (3.94 ft) of
clearance between the switch and walls or other devices. For more information, see H3C S12500X-AF
Switch Series Installation Guide.

Attaching the LSTM2KSGD0 slide rails (for the S12508X-AF and S12516X-AF switches)
1. Read signs on the slide rails to avoid making a mistake.

2. Use a slide rail, for example, the right slide rail, to mark the installation position on the rack posts:
a. Make sure the top flange of the slide rail aligns with the middle of the narrower metal area
between holes on the right front rack post, as shown in Figure 6.
One rack unit
(RU) has three holes, the middle of which is an auxiliary installation hole, and
the other two are standard installation holes. You can distinguish them by the space between
each two holes. The space between a standard installation hole and an auxiliary installation
hole is wider than that between two adjacent standard installation holes.
b. Each rack post requires six screws to attach the slide rail. Mark the uppermost square hole
and lowermost square hole on the rack post.
c. Mark the square holes at the same height on the other three rack posts.

(1) Middle of the narrower metal area between holes
3. Install cage nuts in the marked square holes on the rack posts:
a. As shown by callout 1 in Figure 7, insert
the lower ear of a cage nut into the corresponding
installation hole.
b. As shown by callout 2 in Figure 7, c
ompress the upper and lower ears of the cage nut to lead
the upper ear through the hole.
c. Repeat steps a and b to install cage nuts in all the marked square holes in the rack posts.
Figure 7 Installing a cage nut
4. Align the installation holes on the front end of the slide rail with the cage nuts on a front rack post,
and use six screws to attach the slide rail to the rack post, as shown in Figure 8.

5. Keep the slide rail horizontal and adjust its length until the installation holes on the rear end of the
slide rail touch the cage nuts on the rear rack post. Then use screws to attach the slide rail to the
rear rack post.
Install a screw in each mounting hole of the slide rail to ensure its weight bearing capacity.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to install the other slide rail. Make sure the two slide rails are at the same
height so that the switch can be placed on them evenly. Figure 9 sho
ws the installed slide rails.

2. Mark the installation position on the rack posts for the slide rails:
a. Insert the positioning tab at the bottom of a slide rail into the lowest square hole within the 2U
space on a rack post.
Ensure that the installation holes on the slide rail are aligned with the square holes in the rack
post, as shown in Figure 11.

3. Install cage nuts in the marked square holes on the rack posts:
a. As shown by callout 1 in Figure 12, in
sert the lower ear of a cage nut into the corresponding
installation hole.
b. As shown by callout 2 in Figure 12, com
press the upper and lower ears of the cage nut to
lead the upper ear through the hole.
c. Repeat steps a and b to install cage nuts in all the marked square holes in the rack posts.
Figure 12 Installing a cage nut
4. Perform the following tasks as shown in Figure 13.
a. Align the installation holes on the two ends of a slide rail with the cage nuts on the front and
rear rack posts.
b. Compress the slide rail, making sure the positioning tabs at both ends of the slide rail are
inserted into the lowest square holes within the 2U space on the rack posts.
c. Use screws to secure the slide rail to the rack posts.

TIP:
Install a screw in each mounting hole of the slide rail to ensure its weight bearing capacity.
5. Repeat step 4 to install the other slide rail. Make sure the two slide rails are at the same height so
the device can be placed on them horizontally. Figure 14 sho
ws the installed slide rails.

Figure 14 Installed slide rails
Installing cage nuts for attaching mounting brackets
Before mounting the chassis in the rack, install cage nuts on the front rack posts for attaching the
mounting brackets:
1. As shown in Figure 15, Figure 16, and Figure 17, align the bottom edge of a mou
with the top flange of a slide rail. Then mark the cage nut installation holes on the front rack post.
The switch comes with the mounting brackets installed. To determine the cage nut installation
holes, remove a mounting bracket from the switch. You can also directly count the square holes
from the top flange of a slide rail, as shown in Figure 15, Figure 16, and Figure 17.
2. Perform the same step to mark the cage nut installati
3. Install cage nuts in the marked square holes on the front rack posts, as shown in Figure 7.
For the S125
marked square holes on the right front rack post.
For the S12504X-AF switch, install cage nuts in all the marked square holes.
16X-AF and S12508X-AF switches, cage nuts are not needed for the top two
on holes on the other front rack post.
