    Site preparations The S5200F-ON Series (S5232F-ON, S5248F-ON, and S5296F-ON) switch is suitable for installation as part of a common bond network (CBN). You can install the switch in: • Network telecommunication facilities • Data centers • Other locations where the National Electric Code (NEC) applies NOTE: Install the switch into a rack or cabinet before installing any additional components such as cables or optics.

  • Page 21: Rack Mounting

    S5200F-ON Series switch installation. NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cord provides a ground path, Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire. NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to attach a dedicated ground wire. The ground lug kit ships in a plastic bag placed with the other accessories inside the shipping box.

  • Page 22: Storing Components

    CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply slots. The switch has multiple power cords. Before servicing, ensure all power cords are disconnected. CAUTION: On an AC switch, use the power supply cord as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located and installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.

  • Page 23: S5200F-On Series Switch Installation

    Always handle the switch and components with care. Avoid dropping the switch or its field replaceable units (FRUs). For the S5248F-ON and S5232F-ON switches, you can install the ReadyRails system. Due to the chassis weight, the S5296F-ON switch does not support a two-post rack installation; you must install the S5296F-ON in a four-post rack. For the S5296F-ON switch installation...

  • Page 24: Unpacking Steps

    ReadyRails installation For the S5248F-ON and S5232F-ON switches, you can install the ReadyRails system using the 1U tool-less square-hole method or one of three possible 1U threaded round-hole methods. The tooled installation methods include two-post flush mount, two-post center mount, or four-post threaded mount.

  • Page 25: Tool-Less Square-Hole Installation

    NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. Figure 12. Separate rails Tool-less square-hole installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. NOTE: For S5296F-ON installation instructions, see S5296F-ON four-post rack assembly.

    Attach the front and back flanges for each rail, to the post flanges with two user-supplied screws at each end. Switch installation For the 1U two-post configurations for the S5248F-ON and S5232F-ON switches, slide the switch into the rails in the same manner as the four-post configurations.
  • Page 30 Figure 17. Attach switch rail Line up both switch rails with the previously mounted rack ReadyRails and slide the switch in until it is flush with front of rack. To keep the switch from inadvertently sliding out of the rack and falling, about 3 inches before you fully insert your switch, the rail locking feature engages.

  • Page 32 WARNING: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: • If your chassis is the only unit in the rack, mount it at the bottom of the rack. •...

  • Page 33: Ground Cable

    To attach a ground cable to the switch, use one of the two pre-installed screws. The ground cable is not included. To properly ground the switch, Dell EMC recommends a one- or two-hole lug, M3 hole size. The ground lugs must be a UL-recognized, crimp-type lug.

  • Page 34: Optics Installation

    Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet. The rack installation ears are not a suitable grounding point. Optics installation The S5200F-ON Series (S5232F-ON, S5248F-ON, and S5296F-ON) has SFP+, SFP28, QSFP-DD, and QSFP28 optical ports. For a list of supported optics, see the specification sheets at www.dell.com/support or contact your Dell EMC Sales representative.
