Safety recommendations

WARNING!

Read all of the safety instructions in the installation and operation.

This section provides general recommendations. For more information see the Compliance and Safety Guide included with your device.

Compliance and Safety Gui

BJNGA-AC0001 5830AF-48G TAA

de supplied with your device before

• Turn off all the power and remove all the power cables before opening the chassis.

• Unplug all power and external cables before moving the chassis.

• Locate the emergency power off switch before installation and shut off power immediately if

necessary.

• Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap when installing the device.

• Do not stare into the open optical interface; the high power density light can burn the retina.

• Use a good grounding system to protect your device against lightning shocks, interferences, and

ESD; this is essential to the operating reliability of your switch.

• Make sure the resistance between the chassis and the ground is less than 1 ohm.

Installation site requirements

This section provides information about temperature and humidity, cleanness, and air quality requirements.

You must maintain a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Long-term high humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property changes, and metal corrosion. However, if the relative humidity is too low, captive screws may become loose as the result of contraction of insulation washers and static electricity may be produced in a dry environment to jeopardize the circuits. High temperature is the most undesirable condition, because it accelerates the aging of insulation materials and significantly lowers the reliability and service life of the switch.

For the temperature and humidity requirements of different switch models, see Table 9 in Appendix A

echnical specifications.

Rack-mounting requirements

Before rack-mounting a switch, make sure the rack meets the following requirements:

• HP recommends that you mount a switch in an open rack. If you mount a switch in a closed rack,

make sure there is a good heat dissipation system.

)

• Make sure the rack is steady enough to support the switch and accessories.

• Make sure the switch fits the rack size. Leave some spaces beside the left and right panels of the

switch for chassis heat dissipation.

Installation tools

• Phillips screwdriver P1-100mm, P2-150mm, and P3-250mm

• ESD-preventive wrist strap

All these installation tools are user supplied.

Installing the switch

CAUTION:

Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mounting screw on the chassis cover intact. If you want to open the chassis, contact HP for permission. Otherwise HP shall not be liable for any consequence.

NOTE:

When you install a 96G model or 96G TAA model switch, skip the procedure for installing an expansion interface card. The switch does not support expansion interface cards.

Confirming installation preparations

Before you install the switch, make sure:

• You have read "Preparing for installation" carefully and the installation site meets all the

requirements.

• A 19-inch rack is ready for use. For how to install a rack, see the rack installation guide.

Rack-mounting procedure

You can install a switch in a 19-inch rack using different mounting positions. Figure 6 shows the rackmounting procedure.

Figure 6 Rack-mounting procedure

NOTE:

If a rack shelf is available, you can put the switch on the rack shelf, slide the switch to an appropriate location, and fix the switch to the rack with the mounting brackets.

Installing the mounting brackets, chassis rails, and grounding cable (for the 48G model/48G TAA model)

Each of the 48G model and 48G TAA model switches has one front mounting position near the network ports and one rear mounting position near the power supplies. The switch also has one primary grounding point with a grounding sign and one auxiliary grounding point. Use the primary grounding point in most situations. If the primary grounding point fails or is not suitable for the installation site, use the auxiliary grounding point.

Figure 7 Identifying the mounting and grounding positions

(1) Rear mounting position (2) Primary grounding point (3) Auxiliary grounding point (4) Front mounting position

Attaching the mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch chassis

Use the following procedure for both sides of the chassis.

To attach the mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch chassis:

1. Align the mounting brackets with the screw holes in the rear mounting position (see Figure 8) or

front mounting position (see Figure 9).

2. Use M4 screws supplied with the switch to fix the mounting brackets to the chassis.

If the mounting brackets are in the rear mounting position, align the chassis rails with the screw

holes at the front of the side panels (see Figure 8). If th mounting position, align the chassis rails with the screw holes at the rear of the side panels (see

Figure 9).

4. Use M4 screws (supplied with the switch) to fix the chassis rails to the chassis.

Connecting the grounding cable to the switch chassis

CAUTION:

The primary grounding point and auxiliary grounding point are located on the left side panel. If you use either of the grounding points, you must connect the grounding cable to the grounding point before you mount the switch in the rack.

To connect the grounding cable to a chassis grounding point:

1. Select a grounding point, for example, the primary grounding point.

2. Remove the grounding screws from the primary grounding point. (You can use the screws for

connecting to the primary grounding point or the auxiliary grounding point.)

3. Align the two-hole grounding lug at one end of the cable with the grounding holes of the

grounding point, insert the grounding screws into the holes, and tighten the screws with a screwdriver to fix the grounding lug to the chassis, as shown in Figure 8.

Each of the 96G model and 96G TAA model switches has one front mounting position near the network ports and one rear mounting position near the power supplies. The switch also has one primary grounding point with a grounding sign and one auxiliary grounding point. You use the primary grounding point in most situations. If the primary grounding point fails or is not suitable for the installation site, use the auxiliary grounding point.

Attaching the mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch chassis

Use the following procedure for both sides of the chassis.

To attach the mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch chassis:

1. Align the mounting brackets with the screw holes in the rear mounting position (see Figure 11)

or front mounting position (see Figure 12).

Use M4 screws supplied with the switch to fix the mounting brackets to the chassis.

3. Align the chassis rails with the screw holes at the side panels (see Figure 11 and Figure 12).

4. Use M4 screws supplied with the switch to fix the chassis rails to the chassis.

Connecting the grounding cable to the switch chassis

CAUTION:

To connect the grounding cable to a chassis grounding point:

1. Choose a grounding point, for example, the primary grounding point.

2. Unpack the grounding cable and the grounding screws. (You can use the cable and screws for

connecting to the primary grounding point or the auxiliary grounding point.)

3. Align the two-hole grounding lug at one end of the cable with the grounding holes of the

grounding point, insert the grounding screws into the holes, and tighten the screws with a screwdriver to fix the grounding lug to the chassis, as shown in Figure 11.
