    WARNING: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if the components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S60 system and its components. As with all electrical devices, take all the necessary safety precautions to prevent injury when installing this system.
  • Page 12: Install The Chassis Into The Rack Or Cabinet

    Task NOTE: Dell Networking recommends one person holding the S60 chassis in place while another person attaches the brackets to the posts. Attach the bracket “ears” to the rack or cabinet posts using two screws for each bracket. Ensure the screws are tightened firmly.
  • Page 13: Attach The Ground Cable

    Attach the Ground Cable The S60 system is shipped with two 10-32 screws to attach a ground cable to the system. The cable is not included. To properly ground the system, Dell Networking recommends using a 6AWG two-hole lug, #10 hole size, 63"...
  • Page 14: Insert Optional Modules

    Insert Optional Modules The S60 system has expansion slots at the front left and rear right of the system that you can use for stacking modules or for Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) devices. Table 3-1 lists the optional modules that you can install into these expansion slots. The optional modules are hot-swappable.
  • Page 15: Install The Sfp And Sfp+ Optics

    You cannot cable from a 1-port module to a 2-port module. • You can install the S60 optional modules on either the back or front side of the system. Dell Networking supports cabling between the front and the back side stacking modules. If you need to reach from one side of the system to the other side, be sure to use a cable of suitable length.
  • Page 16 Insert one end of the stacking cable into a stacking port and insert the other end into a stacking port of the adjacent switch. To ensure the cable is secure in the connector, hand-tighten all the captive screws. Install the S60 System...
  • Page 17: Connect Two S60 Systems

    Insert one end of the first cable into Stack Port 48 (or 50). Insert the other end of the cable into Stack Port 50 (or 48) of the top S60 system. Insert the second cable into Stack Port 50 (or 48) of the middle and top S60 systems.
  • Page 18: Connect Three Or More S60 Systems

    Use the remaining cable to connect the top and bottom S60 systems by inserting one end of the cable into the open Stack Port 49 (or 51) of the bottom S60 system and the other end of the cable into Stack Port 48 (or 50) of the top S60 system.

    PSU while the other PSU is running without disrupting traffic. WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, ensure the S60 system is grounded properly. If you do not ground your system correctly, excessive emissions may result. Use a qualified electrician to ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical requirements.
  • Page 23: Install An Ac Or Dc Power Supply

    Install an AC or DC Power Supply The PSUs in the S60 system are field replaceable. When both PSUs are up and running, you can remove one PSU without interrupting traffic. The PSUs are in a single piece with the fans. You can replace the fan filters individually (in the reverse [-R] systems), but replacing a PSU also replaces the fans attached to that PSU.
  • Page 24: Replace An Ac Or Dc Power Supply

    Step Task (continued) For DC PSUs, replace the small plastic cover over the DC connectors. • For an AC PSU, the system powers up as soon as the cables are connected between the PSU and the power source. • For a DC PSU, turn on the power. Replace an AC or DC Power Supply NOTE: If a PSU fails, you must completely replace it.
