Fans And Airflow; Power - Dell EMC S5200F-ON Series Setup Manual

Fans and airflow

Fan installation is completed as part of the Factory Install based on the stock keeping unit
(SKU) type. The S5200F-ON Series switch has SKUs that support the following
configurations:
• AC PSU with fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU—normal
• AC PSU with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse
• DC fan unit with airflow from the I/O to the PSU—normal
• DC fan unit with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse
Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site's ventilation. Use a single type of
airflow fan in your switch. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single switch.
For proper ventilation, position the switch in an equipment rack or cabinet with a minimum
of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the exhaust vents. The fan speed varies based on
internal temperature monitoring. The switch never intentionally turns off the fans.

Power

To connect the switch to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cable. An
AC power cable is included with the switch.
When installing AC or DC switches, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, where applicable.
The switch is powered-up when the power cable is connected between the switch and the
power source.
CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply
slots. The switch has multiple power cables. Before servicing, ensure that all power
cables are disconnected.
CAUTION: On the AC switch, use the power supply cable as the main disconnect
device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located/installed near the equipment and is
easily accessible.
NOTE: Module power is software controlled. You do not see module LEDs when the
switch powers up in the open network install environment (ONIE).
