SwitchX 40GigE 1U Ethernet Switch Installation Guide
1.2.2 Mechanical Installation
The switch platform can be rack mounted and is designed for installation in a standard 19" rack.
The power side of the switch includes a hot-swap power supply module, a blank cover for an
optional second PS unit for redundancy, and a hot-swap fan tray. There are two possible air flow
directions. Be sure that the switch air flow direction is compatible with your system, rack, and PS
units. The connector side of the switch has the QSFP ports, system LEDs, and management con-
nection ports.
The switch platform contains auto-sensing 100 - 240 VAC connections for all possible PS units.
The installer should use a rack capable of supporting the mechanical and environmental character-
istics of a fully populated platform.
The rack mounting holes conform to the EIA-310 standard for 19-inch racks. Take pre-
cautions to guarantee proper ventilation in order to maintain good airflow at ambient
temperature. Cable routing in particular should not impede the air exhaust from the
chassis.
