Preparing for installation H3C S1850 switch series includes the following models: • S1850-10P • S1850-28P • S1850-28P-PWR • S1850-52P Safety recommendations CAUTION: The switch is a class-A device and might cause electromagnetic interference (EMI). Take actions to prevent EMI as required.
• Before cleaning the switch, remove the power cord from the switch. Do not clean the switch with a wet cloth or liquid. • Do not open the chassis while the switch is operating. To avoid damage, do not open the chassis even when the switch is powered off.

Place the switch on a rack shelf in the rack. Slide the switch into the rack until the mounting brackets are flush against the front rack posts and the oval holes in the brackets align with the mounting holes in the front rack posts. Use screws to secure the mounting brackets to the front rack posts.
Figure 4 Mounting the switch in the rack (S1850-28P/S1850-28P-PWR/S1850-52P) NOTE: Mounting brackets are not used for bearing the weight of the switch. A rack shelf is required on the rack to bear the switch weight. Mounting the switch on a workbench Make sure the workbench is clean, sturdy, and reliably grounded.
Place the switch upside up on the workbench. Mounting the switch on a wall Only an H3C S1850-10P switch can be installed on a wall. The type of screws used to wall-mount the switch depends on the wall type. This section uses a concrete wall as an example.

Figure 6 Hole spacing Insert one screw anchor into each hole until the anchors are flush with the wall surface. Drive one screw into each screw anchor, and tighten the screw to secure it in the wall anchor. Leave a minimum clearance of 1.5 mm (0.06 in) between the base of the screw head and the screw anchor so the switch can hang on the screws securely.
Align the two mounting holes in the switch chassis bottom with the two screws on the wall and hang the switch. Make sure the Ethernet ports are facing downwards and the chassis side panels are perpendicular to the ground.

Figure 9 Connecting the console cable Connecting the grounding cable CAUTION: Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection. To connect the grounding cable: Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the grounding screw from grounding hole in the rear panel of the chassis. Use the grounding screw to attach the ring terminal of the grounding cable to the grounding hole.
Remove the hex nut from a grounding post on the grounding strip. Attach the loop to the grounding post and fasten the hex nut. Figure 10 Connecting the grounding cable Connecting the power cord Make sure the switch is reliably grounded. Connect one end of the AC power cord to the AC power receptacle on the switch.
Installing SFP transceiver modules and optical fibers CAUTION: • When you install or remove an SFP transceiver module, do not touch the golden plating on it. • Remove the dust plugs from an SFP transceiver module only when you are to connect optical fibers to the module. •...
Figure 13 Installing optical fibers Accessing the switch The switch supports Web GUI management. To access the Web GUI of the switch: Connect the switch to a PC. Make sure the switch and PC are reachable to reach other. By default, the management IP address of the switch is 192.168.0.233 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
Power status LED off 2. Verify that the power switch is turned on. 3. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. 1. Verify that the network cable is connected to the Ethernet port securely. 2. Connect the network cable to two Ethernet LAN port ports on the switch.
If these configurations exist, remove them. 3. Configure a local network address for the PC and then disable and enable the local network connection. 4. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications Chassis views...
