LANs (Local Area Networks). It provides information for the installation and use of the Supermicro's SSE-C3632R and SSE-C3632SR switches. Installation and maintenance should be performed by experienced professionals only.
Introduction 1.1 Overview The Supermicro SSE-C3632S and SSE-C3632SRS switches are at the top of the Supermicro bare metal switch line. A new generation of 100G Ethernet routing switches, they enable a robust layer-3 IP fabric with a flexible layer-2 overlay in an optimized Ethernet architecture. They are well-suited to function as the high-speed spine layer, giving scalable bi-sectional fabric bandwidth for leaf layer switches like the SSE-X3648S or even the SSE-G3648B.
Different Airflow Options The SSE-C3632S provides “front-to-back” air flow (port-side to power-supply side) for cooling – sometimes called “normal air flow”. The SSE-C3632SR provides air flow in the opposite direction (“reverse air flow”).

SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Installation Notices To ensure the proper operation of the SSE-C3632S/R and your physical security, please read carefully the following installation guide. 3.1 Environmental Requirements • The switch must be installed in a clean area. Otherwise, the switch may be damaged by electrostatic adherence.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Environmental Requirements: Particles Average (mg/m³) Max (mg/m³) 0.006 0.03 0.04 0.15 0.05 0.15 0.01 Temperature and Humidity Although the switch is designed to use 5 fans, the site should still maintain a desirable temperature and humidity. High-humidity conditions can cause electrical resistance degradation or even electric leakage, degradation of mechanical properties and corrosion of internal components.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Power Supply Before powering on the power supply, please check the power input to ensure proper grounding of the power supply system. The input source for the switch should be reliable and secure; a voltage adaptor can be used if necessary.
Caution: If a standard 19’’ rack is not available, the SSE-C3632S/R can be placed on a clean level desktop. Leave a clearance of 100mm around the switch for ventilation, and do not place anything on top of the switch.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide 3.3 Security Warnings • When using a QSFP transceiver, do not stare directly at the fiber bore when the switch is in operation. Otherwise the laser may hurt your eyes. • Do not attempt to conduct the operations which can damage the switch or which can cause physical injury.

Please mount the SSE-C3632S/R on the 19’’ rack as follows: 1. Attach the two brackets on the SSE-C3632S/R with screws provided in the accessory kit. 2. Provide additional support (such as the rack shelf) for the switch when installing because the machine is fairly heavy.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Installing the Power Supply Module The SSE-C3632S and SSE-C3632SR switches support two power supplies. Figure 44-2 Switch Power Supply Installation Please install the power supply module as follows: 1. Insert the power supply into the opening as shown.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Installing the Fan The SSE-C3632S and SSE-C3632SR switches have five fans in the standard configuration. Figure 44-5 Fan installation in SSE-C3632S/R switches Please install or remove the fan module as follows: The golden fingers should be positioned inward and on the back of the switch. After proper insertion you can hear the lock sound of “click”.
Connecting the Console The SSE-C3632S/R has a serial console port. Figure 44-6 Connecting Console to a SSE-C3632S/R Switch The connection procedure is as follows: Find the console cable provided in the accessory kit. Attach the console cable end to the console port of the switch.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide QSFP28 Transceiver Installation The SSE-C3632S/R provides 32 QSFP28 ports. The procedure for installing a QSFP28 transceiver is shown below: 1. Put on an ESD wrist strap (or antistatic gloves). 2. Insert the QSFP28 transceiver to the guide rail inside the QSFP28 port. Do not insert the QSFP28 transceiver up-side-down.

The connection approach of DAC cable is below: Connect the end of the DAC cable to into the QSFP28 port of the SSE-C3632S/R switch. Check the indicator light state of the light port. If the LINK light is bright, it means the link is connected.
2. Check the power status indicator in the front panel of the switch. The corresponding PWR indicator should light. SSE-C3632S/R is self-adjusts to the input voltage. As soon as the input voltage is in the range printed on the switch surface the switch can operate correctly.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Grounding Cable Connection Figure 4-3. Connect the Grounding Cable to the Switches Please connect the grounding cable as follows: 1. Cover one side of the grounding cable to the grounding pillar of the back panel. 2. Take the grounding screw from the accessory bag, insert and screw down to the fixed nut on the grounding pillar of the switch, 3.
SSE-C3632S/SR Switch Installation Guide Checking the Switch • Does the power used correspond to the power on the label? • Is the ground cable connected? • If there are outside cables, please ensure they are well connected to lightning protection device.
