1
Place the container on a clean, flat surface and cut all straps securing the container.
2
Open the container or remove the container top.
3
Carefully remove the switch from the container and place it on a secure and clean surface.
4
Remove all packing material.
5
Inspect the product and accessories for damage.
Storing Components
If you do not install your system and components immediately, Dell Networking recommends properly storing the system and
all optional components until you are ready to install them.
Follow these storage guidelines:
•
Storage temperature must remain constant ranging from –40° to 158°F (–40° to 70°C).
•
Store on a dry surface or floor, away from direct sunlight, heat, and air conditioning ducts.
•
Store in a dust-free environment.
WARNING:
ESD damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel
ground strap when handling the system and its accessories. After you remove the original packaging, place the system
and its components on an antistatic surface.
NOTE:
If you do not install all components, verify that protective covers on the chassis are in place.
Installing a Power Supply
To install a power supply, follow these steps.
CAUTION:
Remove the power cable from the power supplies prior to removing the power supply module itself. Power
must not be connected prior to insertion in the chassis.
CAUTION:
To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the system is grounded properly. If you do not ground your
equipment correctly, excessive emissions may result. To ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical
requirements, use a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground
strap when handling the system and its components.
NOTE:
The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force the PSU into a slot as this may damage the PSU or the chassis.
Ensure that you install the PSU correctly. When you install the PSU correctly, the power connector is on the right side of the
PSU.
NOTE:
The PSUs are field replaceable. When running with full redundancy (two power supplies installed and running), you
can remove and replace one PSU while the other PSU is running, without disrupting traffic.
1
Remove the PSU slot cover from the PSU side of switch. You can select either of the two PSU slots, however, if you are
using a single PSU, Dell Networking recommends using power supply 1 (PSU1) as the blank plate slot.
2
Remove the PSU from the electrostatic bag.
3
Insert the PSU into the switch PSU slot (insert the PSU-exposed PCB edge connector first). The PSU slot is keyed such that
the PSU can only be fully inserted in one orientation.
4
Plug in the AC cord from the switch PSU to the external power source, such as an AC wall outlet.
NOTE:
The system powers up as soon as the cables are connected between the power supply and the power source. If
you have not yet installed the switch in a rack, defer this step until you are ready to power up the system.
5
If you have a redundant PSU (a second PSU), repeat steps 1 through 4 using the second PSU slot on the S3100 series
system.
