2.
(Optional) Prepare the rack:
a.
Provide a 2.8 inch space for each switch
in an EIA or IEC-standard 19-inch
(48.2-centimeter) equipment rack.
b.
Bolt the rack to the floor and brace it if
necessary.
c.
Ground the rack to the same grounding
electrode used by the power service in the
area. The ground path must be permanent
and must not exceed 1 Ohm of resistance
from the rack to the grounding electrode.
Nortel recommends using a filter or surge
suppressor.

3.
Check your cables; when you install the switch into a
network, make sure you use the following required cables:
3
• Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP cable with an RJ-45 connector (for
100 Mb/s operation).
• Category 5 UTP cable with an RJ-45 connector (for 100 Mb/s
operation). The stacking cable for the BES 200 is a CAT5
Ethernet cable.
• Category 5 Four-Pair UTP cable with an RJ-45 connector (for
1000 BASE-T ports with 1000 Mb/s operation).
• Console Port Straight-through serial cable with DB-9 female
connector at one end.

4.
If you are mounting the switch on
a table or shelf, attach the rubber
feet to the device as indicated.

b
5.
Set the device on a flat surface near an AC
power source, making sure there are at least 2
inches (5.1 cm) of space on all sides for proper
air flow and at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) at the
back for power cord clearance.

6.
If you are mounting the
switch on a rack, attach the
brackets to each side of the
device using the screws
provided.
a.
Slide the switch into the
rack. Insert and tighten the
rack-mount screws.

7. If you are stacking the BES200 switches, the fixed, dedicated
1000BASE-T ports on the rear panel of the units can stack up to four BES
200 series switches. These fixed ports allow you to configure and manage
the switches as a single switch and control the flow of network traffic. The
cable connections need to cross over in the BES200 units so that the UP
port connects to the Down port of the next unit, and vice versa.
Steps 8 9
Powering Up

9.
Check the
front-panel LEDs as
the device powers
on to be sure the
100
PWR LED is lit. If
not, check that the
power cable is
200
correctly plugged in.
The BES100 and BES200 series switches begin switching data as soon as you
attach network devices and connect the switch to the power supply.
With the BES200 series switch, traffic is switched across all units in the stack and
uses the 2 GBytes (gigabyte) of bandwidth across the stack connections as if it
were one switch.
