Log in

Ensure that all ordered items are available and undamaged.


Before you install the switch, unpack and inspect the switch for damage or missing components. If anything is missing or damaged, contact your customer service representative immediately.

Tip

Keep the shipping container in case the chassis requires shipping at a later time.

Before you begin

Before you unpack the switch and handle any switch components, be sure that you are wearing a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap. To ground the strap, attach it directly to an earth ground or to a grounded rack or grounded chassis (there must be a metal-to-metal connection to the earth ground).

Procedure

1.

Compare the shipment to the equipment list provided by your customer service representative and verify that you have received all items, including the accessory kit.

2.

Check for damage and report any discrepancies or damage to your customer service representative.

Have this information ready:

  • Invoice number of shipper (see packing slip)

  • Model and serial number of the damaged unit

  • Description of the damage

  • Effect of the damage on the installation

3.

Check to be sure that each of the power supply and the fan tray modules have the expected direction of airflow.

  • Port-side intake airflow modules

    • Burgundy (fan modules and power supplies)

  • Port-side exhaust airflow modules

    • Blue (fan modules and power supplies)

Note

All power supplies and fan modules must have the same direction of airflow.
