Page 8: Preparing For Installation
Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. Always check. Handling safety When you move an HP A10500 switch, follow these guidelines: Remove all external cables, including the power cords, before moving the chassis. Moving the chassis requires at least two persons, and you can use a mechanical lift as needed. -
Page 9: Laser Safety
Examining the installation site The HP A10500 Switch Series must be used indoors. To ensure normal operation and long service life of your switch, the installation site must meet the requirements in this section. Floor loading Ensure that the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, cards, power supplies, and all other components. -
Page 10: Cleanness
Table 10 Humidity requirements Humidity Range Operating humidity 10% to 95%, noncondensing Storage humidity 5% to 95%, noncondensing Cleanness Dust buildup on the chassis may result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of metal components and contact points. In the worst case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure. -
Page 11: Grounding

Garbled terminal display If terminal display is garbled, check that the following settings are configured for the terminal, for example, HyperTerminal: Baud rate—9,600 Data bits—8 Parity—none Stop bits—1 Flow control—none When you modify the settings for the console port of the switch, configure the same settings for the console terminal. -
Page 50: Fan Failure
Plug a new power supply of the same model into the same slot, and connect it to the same power input end. If the new power supply can work properly, the old power supply fails. Contact the agents to replace the old power supply. Fan failure Both the MPU and the fan tray provide the fan tray LEDs, including an OK LED and a FAIL LED. -
Page 51: Interface Failure
Check whether the console terminal prompts that the software version is incompatible with the card in the current slot. If the software version is incompatible with the card, upgrade the software to a compatible version. Calculate the overall power consumption, and make sure that your power supplies can provide enough power. - Page 52 NOTE: A combo interface is a logical interface that comprises one fiber port (Gigabit/100-Mbps SFP port) and one copper port (10/100/1000Base-T GE port). The two ports share one interface view and cannot work simultaneously. When you use the combo enable { copper | fiber } command to enable one port, the other port is disabled automatically.

Replacement procedures The A10500 Switch Series uses a modular, hot-swappable architecture, and supports field replaceable units (FRUs). You can replace any of FRUs when the switch is running. CAUTION: When replacing FRUs when the switch is running, notice safety with electricity. Replacing a power supply CAUTION: Power supply replacement involves removal and installation of power supplies and power cables. -

Page 87: Appendix E Cabling Recommendations
Appendix E Cabling recommendations When an A10500 switch is mounted in a 19-inch standard rack, the interface cables are routed through the cable management brackets, bound at cabling racks on chassis sides, and then routed up or down to pass through the chassis top or the raised floor, depending on the available equipment room condition. The power cables run along the two sides of the chassis and out of the chassis either from the chassis top or the raised floor depending on the equipment room conditions (power distribution cabinet, lightning protection box, and connector strip, etc.) of the exchange office. - Page 88 Figure 47 Cable binding example 1 Different cables (power, signal, and grounding cables) should be routed and bound separately rather than together in the rack. If they are close to each other, you can route them in cross-shape. For parallel routing, the space between power cable and signal cable should be no less than 30 mm (1.18 in).
- Page 89 Figure 49 Cable binding example 3 The spare cables or excessive cable parts should be folded and bound and placed at a right place in the rack or on the cable routing slot. A “right place” refers to the place where the cables will not affect the operation of the switch or impair the switch, or be damaged.
- Page 90 Table 55 Tie-binding parameters Cable bundle diameter (mm) Space between bundles (mm) 80 to 150 10 to 30 150 to 200 200 to 300 No cable or bundle can tie a knot. The metal parts of the crimped cold-pressed terminal blocks (such as air switch) cannot stretch beyond the blocks.

Page 93: Repackaging The Card
When most part of the chassis is removed from the slide rails, lift up the chassis by holding the handles at the chassis sides to completely remove the chassis from the rack. IMPORTANT: Because the HP A10500 Switch Series is heavy, HP recommends you to move the switch with a mechanical lift. -
