Page 16

ESD precautions

CAUTION To protect the serial port from damage, keep the cover on the port when not in use.

CAUTION If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in

place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.

ESD precautions

CAUTION Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable

by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.

CAUTION Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices. To avoid damage, keep

static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them.

CAUTION Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to the chassis ground (if the device is plugged in) or

to a bench ground.

DANGER

For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.

Power precautions

DANGER

Lifting and weight-related precautions

DANGER

Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the device.

DANGER

To avoid high voltage shock, do not open the device while the power is on.

DANGER

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.

CAUTION Use a separate branch circuit for each power cord, which provides redundancy in case one of

the circuits fails.

CAUTION Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection.

To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the input power connectors.

CAUTION All devices with AC power sources are intended for installation in restricted access areas only.

A restricted access area is a location where access can be gained only by service personnel through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security.

the chassis depth, using the Universal Four-Post Rack Kit (part number XBR-R000296). There are two ways you can mount the device in a four-post rack:

• With the port side flush with the front posts

• With the nonport side flush with the rear posts in a recessed position

A recessed position allows a more gradual bend in the fiber-optic cables connect ed to the dev ice and less interference in the aisle at the front of the rack.

Installation requirements

Provide space in an EIA rack with the following minimum and maximum distances between the front and back posts.

Note that if chassis depth (L) is less than 40.64 cm (16 in.), the chassis will not fit into a rack with a maximum depth of 81.28 cm (32 in.) using the universal four-post rack kit. The maximum rack depth for a chassis less than 40.64 cm (16 in.) is 81.28 cm (32 in.) minus the difference between the chassis depth and 40.64 cm (16 in.). For example, a chassis with a depth (L) of 35.56 cm (14 in.) is 5.08 cm (2 in.) smaller than 40.64 cm (16 in.), so it will install into a rack with a maximum depth of 81.28 cm (32 in.)

- 5.08 cm (2 in.) = 76.2 cm (30 in.).

• Verify that the additional weight of the device does not exceed the rack weight limits.

• Ensure that an electrical branch circuit with the following characteristics is available: ‐ Required voltage and frequency as indicated in the Technical Specifications (200-240 VAC is

always preferred).

‐ Protection by a circuit breaker in accordance with local electrical codes. ‐ Supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size that conform to the electrical rating on the device

nameplate.

‐ Grounded outlet compatible with the power cord and installed by a licensed electrician.

• Ensure that all equipment installed in the rack is grounded through a reliable branch circuit connection. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip.

• Ensure that the rack is mechanically secured to ensure stability.

• Ensure that the air temperature at the fan inlet is less than 40

• Ensure that the airflow available at the air vents meets the minimum requirements for the device.

C (104oF) during device operation.

NOTE Install the device with the airflow aligned with any other devices in the rack. Some devices have airflow

running from port side to fan side and others have the opposite arrangement. Make sure that the airflow for all devices moves in the same direction to maximize cooling.

2. Power on the power supplies by flipping both switches to the on position (the "I" symbol). The power supply LEDs display amber until power-on self-test (POST) is complete, and then change to green. The switch usually requires several minutes to boot and complete POST.

NOTE Power is supplied to the device as soon as the first power supply is connected and turned on.

3. After POST is complete, verify that the switch power and switch status LEDs are green.

NOTE Passwords can be 8 to 40 characters long. They must begin with an alphabetic character. They can include numeric characters, the period (.), and the underscore (_) only. Passwords are casesensitive, and they are not displayed when you enter them on the command line.

Configuring the IP address

You can configure the device with a static IP address, or you can use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to set the IP address of the switch. DHCP is enabled by default. The device supports both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

Using DHCP to set the IP address

When using DHCP, the switch obtains its IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address from the DHCP server. The DHCP client can only connect to a DHCP server that is on the same subnet as the switch. If your DHCP server is not on the same subnet as the switch, use a static IP address.

Setting a static IP address

To set a static IP address for the device, complete the following steps.

1. Log in to the device as admin.

2. Use the ipaddrset command to set the Ethernet IP address.

• If you are going to use an IPv4 address, enter the IP address in dotted decimal notation as prompted.

Ethernet IP Address: [192.168.74.102]

• If you are going to use an IPv6 address, enter the network information in colon-separated notation as prompted.

• Required number of supported Brocade-branded transcei v ers Refer to the Fabric OS Release Notes for the list of supported transceivers and cables .

• Required number of compatible fiber-optic cables

• Optical transceiver extraction tool (for 10-Gbps transceiver only)

NOTE Most switches and backbones come with a transceiver extraction tool and holster. The extraction tool is designed to remove transceivers from modules where the space is limited.

FIGURE 24 Optical transceiver extraction tool

Hardware Installation Guide 59

Page 58

Precautions specific to transceivers and cables

DANGER

All fiber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers.

DANGER

CAUTION Do not use the port cover tabs to lift the module. They are not designed to support the weight

of the module, which can fall and be damaged.

CAUTION Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable

by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.

Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors

To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber-optic transceiver (SFP+ or QSFP) and the fiber cable connectors, IBM strongly recommends cleaning both connectors each time you disconnect and reconnect them. Dust can accumulate on the connectors and cause problems such as reducing the optic launch power.

To clean the fiber cable connectors, IBM recommen ds usi ng a fiber-optic reel-type cleaner. When not using an SFP+, or QSFP connector, make sure to keep the protective covering in place.

Managing cables

The minimum bend radius for a 50 micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load. Cables can be organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using cable channels on the sides of the rack or patch panels to minimize cable management. Follow these

60 Hardware Installation Guide

recommendations:

NOTE You should not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easily overtightened and can damage the optic fibers.

CAUTION Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable

by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface.

Page 59

Installing an SFP+ transceiver

• Plan for rack space required for cable management before installing the switch.

• Leave at least 1 m (3.28 ft) of slack for each port cable. This provides room to remove and replace the switch, allows for inadvertent movement of the rack, and helps prevent the cables from being bent to less than the minimum bend radius.

• If you are using ISL Trunking, consider grouping cables by trunking groups. The cables used in trunking groups must meet specific requirements, as described in the Fabric OS Administrator’s Guide .

• For easier maintenance, label the fiber-optic cables and record the devices to which they are connected.

• Keep LEDs visible by routing port cables and other cables away from the LEDs.

• Use hook and loop style straps to secure and organize fiber-optic cables.

Installing an SFP+ transceiver

The device supports only Brocade-qualified transceivers. If you use an unqualified transceiver, the switchshow command output shows the port in a Mod_Inv state. Fabric OS also logs the issue in the

Hardware Installation Guide 61

system error log. To insert an SFP+ transceiver, complete the following steps:

NOTE The 16- and 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers do not have bails. Always use the pull tab to insert or remove the transceivers, as the SFP might be hot.

1. Use the pull tab on the 16- and 32-Gbps SFP+ transceivers to help push the transceiver into the port. Transceivers are keyed so that they can only be inserted with the correct orientation. If a transceiver does not slide in easily, ensure that it is correctly oriented. Push the correctly oriented transceiver into the port until it is firmly seated and the latching mechanism clicks.

NOTE Each SFP+ transceiver has a 10-pad gold-plated PCB-edge connector on the bottom. The correct position to insert an SFP+ transceiver into the upper row of ports is with the gold edge down. The correct position to insert an SFP+ transceiver into the lower row of ports is with the gold edge up.

Interpreting the BOOT results

persistently disable the POST. The success or failure results of the diagnostic tests that run during POST can be monitored through LED activity, the error log, or the command line interface. During the POST, the LEDs flash different colors.

The POST includes the following tasks:

• Conducts preliminary POST diagnostics.

• Initializes the operating system.

• Initializes hardware.

• Runs diagnostic tests on several functions, including circuitry, port functionality, memory, statistics counters, and serialization.

Perform the following steps to determine whether POST completed successfully and whether any errors were detected.

1. Verify that the LEDs on the device indicate that all components are healthy. If one or mo re LEDs do not display a healthy state:

a) Verify that the LEDs are not set to "beacon" (this can be determined through the switchShow

b) Follow the recommended action for the observed LED behavior.

2. Verify the diagShow command displays that the diagnostic status for all ports in the device is OK.

3. Review the system log for errors. Errors detected during POST are written to the system log, which can be viewed by using the errShow command.

command or Web Tools).

Interpreting the BOOT results

BOOT includes the following tasks after POST is complete.

1. Performs universal port configuration.

2. Initializes links.

3. Analyzes the fabric. If any ports are connected to other switches, the switch participates in a fabric configuration.

4. Obtains a domain ID and assigns port addresses.

5. Constructs unicast routing tables.

6. Enables normal port operation.

Running diagnostic tests

In addition to the POST, Fabric OS includes diagnostic tests to help you troubleshoot the hardware and firmware. This includes tests of internal connections and circuitry, fixed media, and the

72 Hardware Installation Guide

transceivers and cables in use. The tests are implemented by command, either through a Telnet session or through a terminal set up

for a serial connection to the device. Some tests require the ports to be connected by external cables to allow diagnostics to verify the serializer/deserializer interface, transceiver, and cable. Some tests require loopback plugs.

Diagnostic tests are run at supported link speeds depending on the speed of the link being tested and the type of port.

Precautions specific to the power supply and fan assemblies

NOTE The two power supply and fan assemblies concurrently installed in the chassis must be of the sam e type (AC), model (airflow direction), and part number. If the airflow directions are different, an error is generated on the console.

NOTE The power supply and fan assembly units are hot-swappable if they are repla ced one at a time. They are identical and fit into either slot.

NOTE The device can operate all the ports with one power supply and fan assembly unit if you do not require redundancy.

The device fans are fixed inside the combined power supply and fan assemblies to provide necessary airflow to cool the whole system. There are three fans located in each unit. The system software sets fan speed and measures fan speed through the tachometer interface.

Precautions specific to the power supply and fan assemblies

DANGER

Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord

76 Hardware Installation Guide

supplied with the device to connect it to the power source.

DANGER

CAUTION Disassembling any part of the power supply and fan assembly voids the warranty and

regulatory certifications. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the power supply and fan assembly.

CAUTION Ensure that the airflow direction of the power supply unit matches that of the installed fan tray.

The power supplies and fan trays are clearly labeled with either a green arrow with an "E", or an orange arrow with an "I."

CAUTION If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in

place. If you run the chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.

Page 75

CAUTION Use a separate branch circuit for each power cord, which provides redundancy in case one of

the circuits fails.

CAUTION To prevent damage to the chassis and components, never attempt to lift the chassis using the

fan or power supply handles. These handles were not designed to support the weight of the chassis.

Identifying the airflow direction

The power supply and fan assemblies are identified by the following airflow directions:

• Intake power supply and fan assembly with an orange "I" label or without any label: Pulls air from the nonport-side of the switch and exhausts it out the port side.

• Exhaust power supply and fan assembly with a green "E" label: Pulls air from the port side of the switch and exhausts it out the nonport-side.

Identifying the airflow direction

• Nonport-side air intake

• Port-side air exhaust

• Back-to-front (nonport-side t o port-side) airflow

• Part numbers ending with -R

• Nonport-side air exhaust

• Port-side air intake

• Front-to-back (port-side to nonport-side) airflow
