Verify the installation requirements

To set up the switch for the first time, you will need the
following:
Workstation with an installed terminal emulator
(such as HyperTerminal)
Unused IP address and corresponding subnet
mask and gateway address
Serial cable (supplied with the switch)
Ethernet cable
Access to an FTP server, SCP server, or USB
device for backing up the switch configuration
(optional)
HP B-series SFP+ transceivers and compatible
cables (HP B-series 16 Gb/s SFP+ transceivers
required for 16 Gb/s performance), as required
IMPORTANT: Order transceivers or cables
separately. The HP SN6000B 16Gb FC Switch
supports only transceivers and cables labeled
B-series SFP+, or B-series cable. See the
compatibility matrix at
hpsancompat.com/
supported transceivers.
Plan the site environment
To ensure adequate cooling, install the switch with the
nonport side (which contains the air intake vents)
facing the cool-air aisle. Verify that the ambient air
temperature does not exceed 40°C (104°F) and that
the ambient humidity remains between 10% and 85%
while the switch is operating.

To install and operate the switch successfully, ensure
that:
The primary AC input is 85–264 VAC Nominal:
100–40 VAC, 2.0 A; 47–63 Hz. The switch
autosenses input voltage.
The primary outlet is wired correctly, protected
by a circuit breaker, and grounded in accordance
with local electrical codes.
The supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size are
adequate, as specified by the electrical rating on
the switch nameplate.
For additional power supply information, see the HP
SN6000B 16Gb 48-port Fibre Channel Switch
Hardware Reference Guide.
Installing the SN6000B 16Gb FC Switch
in a rack using the Rack Mount Kit
Use the SN6000B Switch Rack Mount Kit to install
your HP SN6000B 16Gb FC Switch in an HP 10000
Series Rack.
CAUTION:
described in this section so that when the switch
is installed, the port side faces the rear of the
rack. This configuration optimizes performance
by:
Providing better airflow by using a plenum
to force cool air to enter the switch from
the front of the rack
Providing room for a gradual bend in the
fiber optic cables because the port side of
the switch is set back from the edge of the
rack
Use only the screws provided in the Rack Mount
Kit. Using other screws can cause damage to
internal components.
