UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS

This chapter contains important instructions and information about the
shipping box that you have opened.

Because this guide is included in the shipping box of every item in the
SMC9712G product set, this guide may contain more information than
you need. However, you should be able to easily locate the information
that applies to the box that you have opened.

This chapter includes the following sections:

■ Unpacking a Chassis — see page 8

■ Unpacking a Module — see page 11

■ Unpacking a Power Supply — see page 13

■ Unpacking a Fan Tray — see page 14

8 CHAPTER 1: UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS

Unpacking a
Chassis

Your chassis will have the following preinstalled components:

■ One power supply

■ Two fan trays

To unpack your SMC9712G chassis, follow these steps:

1 Before you continue to unpack the shipping box or install the product,

carefully examine the box for signs of external damage. If the shipping
box shows any signs of damage, replace any items that you have already
removed, reseal the shipping box, and contact your network supplier (the
company from which you purchased the product) immediately.

If you cannot contact your supplier, contact SMC Customer Service:

■ If you are located in the United States or Canada, call

1-800-SMC-YOU and select the numeric option to reach customer

service and the product repair departments.

■ If you are located in another country, find the appropriate telephone

number from the SMC Web site:

http://www.smc.com/

2 If there is no or superficial external damage, use a sufficient number of

people to move the heavy shipping box. Place it near the rack, table, or
shelf where you plan to install the chassis.

WARNING: To minimize the risk of personal injury or equipment
damage, have at least two people transport the shipping box.

WARNING: Safety regulations require that the rack, table, or shelf must
be able to support at least three times the weight of a fully loaded
chassis. A fully loaded SMC9712G chassis weighs approximately 17.68 kg
(39.05 lb) fully loaded. Therefore, the selected rack, table, or shelf must
support at least 61.8 kg (136.5 lb).

Unpacking a Chassis 9

3 By the time you read these instructions, you will have already opened the

shipping box. If you followed the instructions that are printed on the
outside of the shipping box, you turned the box 90 degrees from its
shipment position before you opened it. This position allows you to easily
pull and slide the contents out of the box laterally, rather than to lift them
vertically out of the box.

4 When you first opened the box, you should have seen:

■ The chassis wrapped in a plastic bag.

The chassis is held securely in place by foam supports on two sides
and it is protected from dust and scratches by a plastic bag. One side
of the chassis will be facing you.

■ The cardboard accessories tray located on top of the chassis.

5 Pull the accessories tray out of the shipping box.

6 Verify that the following items are included in the accessories tray:

■ One power cord that is appropriate for your country.

■ One hardware kit in a plastic bag that contains:

■ Two rack-mount flanges

■ Fourteen screws

■ Four rubber feet

■ One cable management device

■ Fourteen plastic ties

■ One standard null modem RS-232 console cable

■ Three printed manuals:

■ SMC9712G Key Information Guide (this guide)

■ SMC9712G Installation and Maintenance Guide

■ SMC9712G Software Configuration Guide

7 Grasp the top and bottom of the chassis and slide it laterally out of the

box. The foam supports should stay attached to the chassis.

8 Save the foam supports and plastic bag in case you need to pack up and

move the chassis to a different site, or in case you need to return the
chassis to your network supplier or to SMC.

9 Inspect the chassis and verify that it contains:

■ One power supply (front, bottom left or right)

10 CHAPTER 1: UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS

■ Two fan trays (front, top left and right)

■ One Switch Fabric Management Module in slot M1 or M2 (front)

■ All unoccupied module slots and the second power bay should be

covered with blank faceplates.

If the shipping box does not contain the correct components (including
the accessories listed in step 6), follow the instructions in step 1.

10 If you are not prepared to install the chassis, replace it in the shipping box

with the plastic bag and foam supports in their original positions to
prvent damage to the chassis.

11 Read the SMC9712G Installation and Maintenance Guide to verify that

you have met prerequisite installation conditions, to acknowledge
important safety information, and to follow the installation procedures.

A printed copy of this guide is included in all chassis shipping boxes.

Unpacking a Module 11

Unpacking a
Module

SMC offers individual SMC9712G modules for purchase so that you can:

■ Add modules to the empty slots in a chassis.

■ Have spare modules in storage at your site to meet service

requirements or network expansion.

See the SMC9712G Installation and Maintenance Guide for slot
restrictions for Switch Fabric Management Modules, Fast Ethernet
Interface Modules, or Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules.

This section contains basic instructions and cautions to follow when
unpacking a module shipping box.

1 Before you remove the module from its shipping box, carefully examine

the shipping box for signs of damage.

If the shipping box shows any signs of damage, replace any items that
you have already removed, reseal the shipping box, and contact your
network supplier (the company from which you purchased the product)
immediately.

If you cannot contact your supplier, contact SMC Customer Service:

■ If you are located in the United States or Canada, call

1-800-SMC-YOU and select the numeric option to reach the customer
service and product repair departments.

■ If you are located in another country, find the appropriate telephone

number from the SMC Web site:

http://www.smc.com/

2 Attach a wrist strap to yourself and a proper ground.

CAUTION: When you handle a module, SMC recommends that you
always use a wrist strap that is connected to a proper ground. This
precaution helps prevent electrostatic discharge from damaging the
module.

12 CHAPTER 1: UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS

3 As shown in Figure 1, remove the module from its antistatic bag by

grasping it on the faceplate. Do not touch traces, chips, or other
components on the circuit board at any time.

SMC9712G chassis unless one or both fans in a fan tray fail.

This section contains instructions and cautions when unpacking an
individual fan tray (order number SMC9712F).

1 Before you continue to unpack the shipping box, carefully examine it for

signs of damage.

If the shipping box shows any signs of damage, replace any items that
you have already removed, reseal the shipping box, and contact your
network supplier (the company from which you purchased the product)
immediately.

If you cannot contact your supplier, contact SMC Customer Service:
