Optics Installation - Dell S5048F-ON Setup Manual

Optics installation

WARNING: When working with optical fibers, follow all warning labels and always
wear eye protection. Never look directly into the end of a terminated or
unterminated fiber or connector as it may cause eye damage.
1 Position the optic so it is in the correct position.
The optic has a key that prevents it from being inserted incorrectly.
2 Insert the optic into the port until it gently snaps into place.
NOTE:
from the small vent holes above and below the ports.
Optics removal
Remove an optic by pushing the tab on the optic and sliding the optic from the port.
When removing optics with direct attach cables (DACs) from the port, pull the release tab
firmly and steadily. Before pulling the release tab, you may need to gently push the optic into
the port to ensure that it is seated properly. Do not jerk or tug repeatedly on the tab.
Switch power-up
Supply power to the S5048F-ON switch after you mount it in a rack or cabinet.
Reinspect your switch before power-up. Verify the following:
• The equipment is properly secured to the rack. Dell EMC recommends properly
grounding the switch.
• The ambient temperature around the unit, which may be higher than the room
temperature, is within the limits specified for the S5048F-ON switch, see Specifications.
• There is sufficient airflow around the unit.
• The input circuits are correctly sized for the loads and that you use sufficient overcurrent
protection devices.
• All protective covers are in place.
• Blank panels are installed if you do not install optional modules.
CAUTION: Do not power up the switch if you did not install a fan module.
When you cable the ports, be sure not to interfere with the airflow
