Introduction

The supported switches are listed in Table 1.

Installation requirements

Allow 15 to 30 minutes to complete this procedure. Note the following requirements to ensure correct installation

and operation:

•

Verify that the additional weight of the switch does not exceed the rack’s weight limits.

•

Ensure that an electrical branch circuit with the following characteristics is available:

Required voltage and frequency as indicated in the hardware reference manual (200-230 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 switch 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

C (104

F) during switch operation.

•

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