Installation and safety precautions
WARNING!
The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable,
tilting or falling.
Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as possible, with the heaviest
devices at the bottom and progressively lighter devices above.
Do not wall-mount any switch without checking for restrictions in the Installation and Getting
Started Guide.
Wall-mount the switch with network ports facing up or down (away from or toward the floor).
Do not wall-mount the switch with the ventilation or fan ducts facing up or down.
Use only trained and qualified personnel to install or replace this equipment.
CAUTION:
Do not ship any switch in a rack without checking for restrictions in the HPE OfficeConnect
1850 Switch Series Installation and Getting Started Guide. Otherwise you may void the
switch warranty.
Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord supplied
with the switch to connect to the AC power source.
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the switch
and/or power supply, be sure the cord is adequately sized for the switch's current
requirements. In addition, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety
agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country/region. The mark is your
assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch and power supply.
When installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the switch and should be easily
accessible in case the switch must be powered off.
Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection.
To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add together the ampere
ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the switch and compare the total with
the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices
near the AC power connectors.
Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient temperature exceeds
its specification.
Ensure the air flow around the switch is not restricted. Leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for
cooling. For the air flow direction, see the Installation and Getting Started Guide for your
product, located on the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Networking web site at http://
www.hpe.com/networking/support.
