This Installation Guide provides information about the Lenovo
G8052 (referred to as G8052 throughout this document).
The G8052 is a 1U rack-mountable aggregation switch with unmatched line-rate
Layer 2 and Layer 3 performance. The G8052 uses a wire-speed, non-blocking
switching fabric that provides simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets
at low latency on all ports.
The G8052 contains the following switching ports:
•
Forty-eight Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) RJ-45 ports
•
Four 10 GbE Small Form Pluggable Plus (SFP+) ports
SFP+ ports
Direct-Attach Cables (DACs), and QSFP+ ports can be populated with optical
QSFP+ modules or DACs
The G8052 is rack-mountable in either the horizontal or vertical direction, depending
on your application. Mounting options are available for a variety of rack systems (as
described in Chapter 3, “Installing G8052 Hardware and Options.”
For superior reliability, the G8052 uses redundant, hot-swap power supply modules
and four hot-swap fan modules. Module options are available for either front-to-rear
airflow, or rear-to-front airflow.
You can manage the switch through the local console port, or through a remote
network connection, a Web browser-based interface, or SNMP-based network
management software. For more information, see Chapter 5, “Initializing the G8052”
on page 69.

Fans
For cooling, the rear panel of the G8052 has four bays for hot-swap fan modules.
Four fan modules are required for redundancy. When four fan modules are used, if
there is a failure of one of the four fans, the switch reports the condition, the other
fans continue to run, and the switch continues to operate normally. You can replace
the failed hot-swap fan module while the switch is operating. If a second fan fails,
the switch reports the condition and shuts down to prevent overheating.
Fan operation and internal temperatures are monitored. If the air temperature
exceeds a desired threshold, the environmental monitor displays warnings.
Note: If a fan fails, the maximum operating temperature drops from +40°C (104°F)
to +35°C (95°F).
Fan LEDs
Fan LED indicators are located on the rear panel of the switch, on the individual fan
modules. The following table describes the fan module LED behavior.

Statement 5
CAUTION:
The power control button on the device and the power switch on the power
supply do not turn off the electrical current supplied to the dev ice. The device
also might have more than one power cord. To remove all electrical current
from the device, ensure that all power cords are disco nnected from the powe r
source.
Electrical current from power, telephone, and communication cables is
hazardous.
To avoid a shock hazard:
•
Do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform installation,

6. Turn ON all the power sources.
Two power supply modules are required for redundancy. Each power supply can be
connected to a separate circuit to mitigate the risk of down-time during a localized
power failure. When used in a redundant configuration, the dual power supplies
have a load-sharing capability that enables each power supply to operate at
approximately 50 percent of full load.
To Disconnect:
1. Turn OFF all power sources and
equipment that is to be attached to
this product.
– For ac systems, remove all
power cords from the chassis
power receptacles or interrupt
power at the ac power
distribution unit.
– For dc systems, disconnect dc
power sources at the breaker
panel or by turning off the power
source. Then, remove the dc
cables.
