This chapter describes the process of installing an RHUB3908.
5.1 Information About the Installation
This section describes the information to be learnt before RHUB3908 installation, including
the RHUB3908 installation scenarios, clearance, and installation environment.
5 Installing an RHUB3908
5.2 Installation Process
The RHUB3908 installation involves installing an RHUB3908 module, installing RHUB3908
cables, checking the RHUB3908 hardware installation, and powering on the RHUB3908.
5.3 Installing an RHUB3908
An RHUB3908 can be installed in a cabinet, rack, shelf, or on a wall.
5.4 Installing RHUB3908 Cables
This section describes how to install cables for an RHUB3908.
5.5 Checking the RHUB3908 Hardware Installation
After an RHUB3908 is installed, check the installation of hardware including the devices and
related cables.
5.6 Power-on Check on an RHUB3908
This section describes the power-on check on the RHUB3908 after the RHUB3908 hardware
is installed and checked.
5.1 Information About the Installation
This section describes the information to be learnt before RHUB3908 installation, including
the RHUB3908 installation scenarios, clearance, and installation environment.
5.1.1 RHUB3908 Installation Scenarios
An RHUB3908 can be installed in a 19-inch cabinet, rack, shelf, or on a wall.
The RHUB3908 supports that mounting ears are installed in standard mode or reverse mode.
The reverse mode is used by default. The two installation modes are defined as follows:
In standard mode, the front of the mounting ear is aligned with the RHUB3908 panel, as
shown in Figure 5-1.
Figure 5-1 Installing mounting ears in standard mode
In reverse mode, the front of the mounting ear is 31 mm away from the RHUB3908
panel, as shown in Figure 5-2.
Figure 5-2 Installing mounting ears in reverse mode
Installing an RHUB3908 in a 19-Inch Cabinet or Rack
Installing an RHUB3908 in a 19-inch cabinet or rack: Secure the mounting ear to the
mounting bracket by using M6 screws.
If there is no other modules installed in the 1 U space near the RHUB3908, install the
RHUB3908 directly. Otherwise, remove the modules before installing the RHUB3908.
Before installation, you need to check the installation mode supported by the rack and
adjust the position of the mounting ear.
Figure 5-3 and Figure 5-4 show RHUB3908s installed in a cabinet or rack, respectively.
Figure 5-3 Installing an RHUB3908 in a 19-inch cabinet or rack in standard mode
Figure 5-4 Installing an RHUB3908 in a 19-inch cabinet in reverse mode
Installing an RHUB3908 in a 19-Inch Shelf
When an RHUB3908 is installed in a 19-inch shelf, the shelf must be installed on a wall. One
shelf can house multiple RHUB3908s with 1 U space between two RHUB3908s.
Figure 5-5 and Figure 5-6 show RHUB3908s installed in a 19-inch shelf.
5.1.2 Installation Clearance Requirements of an RHUB3908
When an RHUB3908 is installed in a 19-inch cabinet, rack, shelf, or on a wall, a minimum
clearance is required for easy cabling and operation and maintenance. A recommended
installation clearance is provided based on experience.
Do not install or place inflammable materials above or under an RHUB3908.
A clearance of 350 mm must be reserved in front of the air intake vent of the fan of the
power supply unit (PSU) for maintenance.
Figure 5-8 shows the installation clearance for the RHUB3908 installed in a 19-inch cabinet,
Above the 1800 m altitude,
the maximum operating
temperature decreases by
1°C each time the altitude
increases by 220 m.
Installing more than one RHUB3908, 1 U space is required between two RHUB3908s.
Other Running Environment Specifications
The RHUB3908 cannot be installed at an air outlet of the heat dissipation box of an air
conditioner or other heat-generating appliances.
The RHUB3908 cannot be installed near a strong heat source.
The RHUB3908 cannot be installed in a position with water dripping, such as outdoor
equipment of air conditioners, pipe, and leaking or dripping roofs.
The installation position must be far from rains. If the RHUB3908 is installed on a wall,
there must be no window on either side of the wall.
The installation position must be far away from high voltage, highly corrosive devices,
flammable or explosive substances, and electromagnetic interference.
The RHUB3908 must be installed in a dry, ventilating, and dust-proof place.
If the RHUB3908 is installed in parking areas or basements, the installation position
must be well-ventilated.
The RHUB3908 installation involves installing an RHUB3908 module, installing RHUB3908
cables, checking the RHUB3908 hardware installation, and powering on the RHUB3908.
Figure 5-11 shows the RHUB3908 installation process.
