Safety
Before installing and operating these products, please read
the “Installation Precautions” in chapter 2, “Installing the
Series 8200zl Switch”, and the safety statements in
appendix C, “Safety and Regulatory Statements”.
The ProCurve Series 8200zl Switch is a multiport modular switch that provides
Layer 3 routing features, and features low latency for high-speed networking.
This chapter describes your Series 8200zl Switch including:
■Front and back of the switches
■Features
■Switch operation overview
The Series 8212zl Switch is typically ordered as the base system (J8715A) with
one management module, one system support module, two fabric modules,
and the fan tray pre-installed. A spare chassis-only (J9091A) can be ordered,
but it only comes with a fan tray pre-installed. All other modules are removed
from a failed chassis and re-installed into the spare chassis.

Redundant Power Supply
Load-sharing redundant power supplies (ProCurve Switch zl 875 W Power
Supply, J8712A or a ProCurve Switch zl 1500 W Power Supply J8713A) can be
installed in the back of the Series 8200zl Switch. To provide redundancy, each
power supply should be connected to different AC power sources. Then, if
one AC power source fails, the switch will continue to run.
CautionThe switch redundant power supply is hot swappable, but, as indicated by the
caution statement on the power supply, it must be disconnected from AC
power before being installed or removed.
CAUTION:
.
Refer to the installation guide for proper power cord selection
.
Disconnect AC power from the power supply BEFORE installing or
removing the supply. Otherwise, damage to the equipment may result.
Because the switch can run on a single supply, removing a redundant supply
will not interrupt switch operation. However, on the 8212zl one power supply
will only supply enough power to run the module slots A-F. Slots G-L will not
receive any power unless there are at least two power supplies installed.
.
When power is restored to a second (or more) power supplies, a system reload
or interface module reset may be required to restore operation to slots G-L.

WARNINGTo avoid personal injury or product damage, read the safety warnings
on page 2-5 and installation precautions on page 2-6 and follow the
rack mounting guidelines on page 2-9. Due to product weight, two or
more persons are required to handle and mount the 8212zl.
Summary
Follow these easy steps to install your switch. The rest of this chapter provides
details on these steps.
1.Prepare the installation site (page 2-7). Make sure the physical
environment into which you will be installing the switch is properly
prepared including having the correct network cabling ready to connect
to the switch, and having a good location for the switch. See page 2-6 for
some installation precautions.
2.Mount the switch (page 2-9). The Series 8200zl Switch is a large heavy
chassis, therefore ProCurve Networking recommends mounting the
empty chassis before populating it with modules or power supplies. It can
be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, or on a
horizontal surface. An optional Rail Mounting Kit (5070-0145) is available
for mounting the Series 8200zl Switch in a cabinet suitable for shipping.
See the installation details for more information.
3.Install switch modules (page 2-14). The Series 8200zl Switch has 12
universal slots for installing any of the ProCurve Switch zl modules.
Depending on where you will install your Series 8200zl Switch, it may be
easier to install the modules first. The modules are “hot swappable”
though, so they can also be installed and removed after the switch is
powered on.
Installing the Series 8200zl
Switch
Note Make sure you use only ProCurve Switch zl Modules in your Series 8200zl
Switch.
4.Install power supplies (page 2-17). The Series 8200zl Switch supports
up to four power supplies. It may be easier to install the power supplies
before mounting the switch. The switch must have at least one power
supply to operate.
2-3

Installation Procedures
Switch
5.Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-20). This is a simple process
of plugging the switch into a power source and observing that the LEDs
on the switch’s front panel and on the modules show correct operation.
It may be easier to verify if the switch passes self test before mounting
the switch.
6.Install the Grounding Wire (page 2-22). If a grounding wire is to be
attached to the switch chassis, the grounding lug must be removed and a
wire crimped to it and the grounding lug must be reinstalled.
7.Connect the switch to a power source (page 2-22). Once the switch
is mounted, plug it in to the nearby main power source.
8.(Optional) connect a Power Supply Shelf (page 2-23). You may wish
to use a Power Supply Shelf with your switch. To do so you must connect
the external power supply using the EPS cables supplied with the Power
Supply Shelf.
9.Connect the network devices (page 2-26). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect other switches, hubs, routers, computers,
servers, printers, and other network devices to the switch ports. For more
information, see “Connect the Network Devices” on page 2-26.
Installing the Series 8200zl
Note The 10/100/1000-T ports on the zl Modules comply with IEEE 802.3x
standard which includes the Auto MDI/MDI-X feature. This feature
allows you to use straight-through twisted-pair cable for all of your
twisted-pair network connections.
10. (Optional) connect a console to the switch (page 2-28). You may wish
to modify the switch’s configuration, for example, to configure an IP
address so it can be managed using a web browser or from an SNMP
network management station. Configuration changes can be made easily
through the switch’s console interface.
At this point, the switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you
need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.
