Safety recommendations
To avoid possible bodily injury and equipment damage, read all safety recommendations carefully
before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.
General safety recommendations
• Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.
• Do not place the switch on a moist area, and avoid liquid flowing into the switch.
• Make sure the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.
• Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walk areas.
• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry (for example, necklace) or any other things that could get
caught in the chassis when you install and maintain the switch.
Electricity safety
• Clear the work area of possible electricity hazards, such as ungrounded power extension cables,
missing safety grounds, and wet floors.
• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation so you can quickly shut power
off when an electrical accident occurs.
2
• Unplug all external cables, including power cords, before moving the chassis.
• Do not work alone when the switch has power.
• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. Always check.
Handling safety
CAUTION:
Do not hold the handle of the fan tray, power supply, or back cover of the chassis, or the air vents of
chassis. Any attempt to move the switch with these parts mi
g
ht cause equipment damage and even bodil
y
injury.
When you move the switch, follow these guidelines:
• Remove all external cables, including the power cords, before moving the chassis.
• Moving the chassis requires a minimum of two people, and you can use a mechanical lift as
needed.
• Lift and put down the chassis slowly and never move suddenly.
• Hold the handles on the chassis.
ESD prevention
To prevent the electric component from being damaged by ESD, follow these guidelines:
• Ground the switch correctly. For how to ground your switch, see "Installing the switch."
• A
lways wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it is reliably grounded when installing FRUs. For
how to use an ESD wrist strap, see "Installing FRUs."
• Hold a PCB by its edges. Do not touch any electronic components or printed circuit.
• Put cards away in ESD bags for future use.
Laser safety
W
ARNING!
Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The laser li
g
ht emitted from the optical fiber
might hurt your eyes.
Examining the installation site
The HP 10500 switches must be used indoors. To ensure correct operation and long service life of your
switch, the installation site must meet the requirements in this section.
Weight support
Make sure the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, cards, power supplies, and all other
components. Additionally, the floor loading plan must also consider system expansion, such as adding
more cards. For more information, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
3
Temperature
CAUTION:
To avoid short circuits, if condensation appears on the chassis when you move it to a high-temperature
environment, dry the chassis before powering it on.
To ensure correct operation of the switch, make sure the room temperature meets the requirements
in Table 2.
Table 2 Temperature r
equirements
Tem
p
erature Range
Operating temperature 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)
Storage temperature –40°C to +70°C (–40°F to +158°F)
Humidity
Maintain appropriate humidity in your equipment room, as described in Table 3.
• Lasting high relative humidity tends to cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical
property change of materials, and corrosion of metal parts.
• Lasting low relative humidity is likely to result in loose screws due to washer contraction, and even
ESD, which causes the circuits to fail.

EMI
All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the switch and application
system, adversely affect the switch in the following ways:
• A conduction pattern of capacitance coupling.
• Inductance coupling.
• Electromagnetic wave radiation.
• Common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling.
To prevent EMI, use the following guidelines:
• If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) to
filter interference from the power grid.
• Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency
devices to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.
• Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary. For example, use shielded interface cables.
• To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by over-voltage or over-current caused by lightning
strikes, only route interface cables indoors.
Grounding
Using a good grounding system to protect your switch against lightning shocks, interferences, and ESD
is essential to the operating reliability of your switch.
Make sure the resistance between the chassis and the ground is less than 1 ohm.
Power
Perform the following tasks to meet the power requirements:
1. Calculate the system power consumption.
The system power consumption varies by card type and density. For more information about
system power consumption calculation, see "Appendix A Chassis views and tec
hnical
specifications."
2. Select power supplies and identity the number of power supplies.
The total maximum output power of all power supplies must be higher than the system power
consumption. For more information about available power supplies, see "Appendix B FRUs and
compatibility matrixes."
5
3. Verify that the power system at the installation site meets the requirements of the power supplies,
including the input method and rated input voltage.
Cooling
Plan the installation site for adequate ventilation.
• A minimum of 10 cm (3.94 in) of clearance is reserved at the inlet and outlet air vents.
• The rack for the switch has a good cooling system.
• The installation site has a good cooling system.
• Verify that the airflow design of the chassis meets the airflow design of the installation site.

Confirming installation preparations
Before you install the switch, verify that:
• You have read "Preparing for installation" car
efully and the installation site meets all the
requirements.
• If you are rack-mounting the switch, verify that the following conditions are met:
{ A 19-inch rack is ready for use. For how to install a rack, see the rack installation guide.
{ The rack is sturdy and securely grounded.
{ No debris exists inside or around the rack.
{ Choose a correct rack mounting position for the switch. Make sure the heaviest device is placed
at the bottom of the rack.
{ The total height of the switches to be installed is no higher than the available installation height
of the rack, and enough clearance is reserved for cable routing.
• If you are mounting the switch on a workbench, make sure the workbench is sturdy and securely
grounded.
• The switch is ready for installation and has been carried to a place near the installation site and
convenient for moving.
Installing the switch in a 19-inch rack
Attaching slide rails and cage nuts to the rack
Installing slide rails
If the rack has slide rails, skip this section.
Before you attach slide rails to the rack, verify that the following conditions are met:
• The slide rails can support the weight of the switch. For the weights of the 10500 switches, see
"Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
HP recommen
ds that you order the HP X421 A-Series Chassis Universal 4-Post Rack Mounting Kit
(JC665A). For more information about the kit, see "Appendix B FRUs and compatibility matrixes."
• If y
ou install the switch in an enclosed cabinet, make sure the distance between the front rack posts
and the front door is a minimum of 100 mm (3.94 in) for installing cable management brackets,
and the distance between the front rack posts and the rear door is a minimum of 660 mm (25.98
in) for the chassis with cards installed.
9
• To ensure rack stability, install the slide rails to the lowest possible position when installing a single
switch on the rack. To install multiple switches on the rack, mount the heaviest switch at the bottom
of the rack.
• Identify the chassis and slide rail positions for the switch. For the height and other specifications, see
"Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
Slide rail installation varies by rack type. This section uses the slide rails in the HP rack mounting kit
(JC665A) as an example.
To install a slide rail:
1. Read the mark on the slide rail (see Table 7) to avoid
making a mistake.

Installing mounting brackets and cable management brackets
Before installing the switch to the rack, install the cable management brackets and mounting brackets
shipped with the switch. Cable management brackets are used for securing and organizing signal
cables and power cords on the switch, and mounting brackets are used for attaching the chassis to the
rack.
Installing cable management brackets
You must install the signal cable management brackets separately for the 10508-V switch. All other
10500 switches come with the signal cable management brackets secured to the mounting brackets. In
this step, you only need to install the power cord management brackets for them.
• The 10508-V has two cable management brackets: the signal cable management brackets are
installed at the upper part of the switch, and the power cord management brackets are installed at
the lower part of the switch. They are installed in the same way. For more information, see Figure 9.
• T
he power cord management bracket installation procedure for the 10508 and 10512 is the same
as 10508-V.
14
• The power cord management brackets of the 10504 have a slightly different structure, and installed
in a similar procedure. For more information, see Figure 10.
T
o install a cable management bracket:
1. Unpack the cable management brackets.
2. Attach the cable management bracket to the chassis, and align the screws with the mounting holes
on the chassis, as shown in Figure 9.
3. Fasten the s
crews.

Mounting the switch in the rack
CAUTION:
• Do not hold the handle of the fan tray, power supply, or the back cover of the chassis, or the air vents of
chassis. Any attempt to carry the switch with these parts might cause equipment dama
g
e or even bodily
injury.
• After placing the switch on the slide rails, do not let go right away because this might tip the switch,
damage the switch, or cause bodily injury.
To mount the switch in the rack:
1. Move the chassis to face the rear of the chassis towards the front of the rack.
2. Use a minimum of two people to lift the switch by using the handles or supporting the bottom of the
chassis until the bottom of the switch is a little higher than the slide rails on the rack.
HP recommends that you use a mechanical lift for moving your switch.
3. Place the switch on the slide rails and slide the switch along the slide rails until the mounting
brackets on the switch touch the front rack posts, as shown by callout 1 in Figure 12.
4. Attach the ch
assis to the rack with mounting screws.

Mounting the switch on a workbench or floor
You can install the switch on a clean, sturdy workbench or on the floor.
Installation preparation
Before you mount the switch on a workbench or on the floor:
• Position the installation holes and drill holes. Make sure the holes are exact in diameter and depth
for the anchors to operate correctly.
• Remove the shank and plug from a wall anchor, insert the spade-shaped wedges into the grooves
on the shank, put them into an installation hole, and hammer the shank into the ground. See Figure
13 .
IMPORTANT:
Before you hammer the shank to the workbench or floor, insert the spade-shaped wedges into the
grooves on the shank. Otherwise, the wall anchor cannot be installed correctly.

Installing MPUs/LPUs/switching fabric modules
IMPORTANT:
• Before installing a card to the chassis, make sure the connectors on the card are not broken or blocked
to avoid damaging the backplane.
• To ensure good ventilation, install a blank filler panel over an empty MPU, LPU, or switching fabric
module slot. MPU slots use the same type of blank filler panels as LPU slots.
The installation procedures for MPUs, LPUs, and switching fabric modules are the same. Unless otherwise
stated, MPUs, LPUs, and switching fabric modules are collectively referred to as "cards" in this document.
These cards are either horizontally oriented or vertically oriented. When installing a card in a horizontal
slot, make sure its PCB faces up. When installing a card in a vertical slot, make sure its PCB faces left.
This section uses a horizontally oriented card as an example.
To install a horizontally oriented card:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For
more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."
2. As sh
own by callout 1 in Figure 19, remov
e the blank filler panel from the slot. Keep the blank filler
panel for future use.
Some card slots do not have a blank filler panel. The figures in this section are for illustration only.

23
3. As shown by callout 2 in Figure 19, hold the card by the front panel with one hand and support
the card bottom with the other. Slide the card steadily into the slot along the guide rails.
4. When most part of the card is inserted in the slot, press the ejector levers on the card outward.
5. Push the card until the positioning pin on card touches the hole on the chassis.
6. As shown by callout 3 in Figure 19, pres
s the ejector levers inward until the ejector levers touch the
panel tightly and the card seats into the backplane
7. As shown by callout 4 in Figure 19, fasten the c
aptive screws on the card.
8. When the switch is powered on, verify the running status of the card.
You can verify the running status of a card by referring to the card status LED (SLOT) on the MPU
of the switch. If the RUN LED blinks, the card in the slot operates correctly. For more information
about card status LED (SLOT), see "Appendix C LEDs."
