  • Page 27: General Precautions

    Installing a FastIron Compact Switch Installation precautions General precautions All fiber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers. Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might exceed 40o C (104o F). Make sure the air flow around the front, sides, and back of the device is not restricted. Never leave tools inside the chassis.
  • Page 28 Installing a FastIron Compact Switch Installation precautions Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the input power connectors.
  • Page 29: Preparing The Installation Site

    Installing a FastIron Compact Switch Preparing the installation site Remove the power cord from a power supply before you install it in or remove it from the device. Otherwise, the power supply or the device could be damaged as a result. (The device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source.) Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the device.
  • Page 30: Installation Location

    Installing a FastIron Compact Switch Installing a redundant power supply Installation location Before installing the device, plan its location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. Allow at least 3 inches of space at the front of the device for the twisted-pair, fiber-optic, and power cabling. Also, allow a minimum of 3 inches of space between the sides and the back of the device and walls or other obstructions.
  • Page 31: Installing A Dc Power Supply

    Installing a FastIron Compact Switch Installing a redundant power supply Make sure you insert the power supply right-side up. It is possible to insert the supply upside down, although the supply will not engage with the power backplane when upside down. The power supply is right-side up when the power connector is on the left and the fan vent is on the right.
