IMPORTANT: For regulatory identification purposes, the A5820AF-24XG switch is assigned a regulatory model number (RMN) BJNGA-AD0001. This regulatory number should not be confused with the marketing name HP A5820AF, or product code JG219A. Safety recommendations WARNING! Compliance and Safety Gui...
Rack-mounting requirements Before rack-mounting a switch, make sure the rack meets the following requirements: HP recommends that you mount a switch in an open rack. If you mount a switch in a closed rack, make sure there is a good heat dissipation system.
Installing the switch CAUTION: Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mounting screw on the chassis cover intact, and if you want to open the chassis, contact HP for permission. Otherwise, HP shall not be liable for any consequence.
Figure 1 Hardware installation flow Confirming installation preparations Before you install the switch, make sure: You have read ―Preparing for installation‖ carefully and the installation site meets all the requirements. A 19-inch rack is ready for use. For how to install a rack, see the rack installation guide. ...

Figure 10 Attaching the front mounting brackets and the chassis rails to the chassis Attaching the mounting brackets to the chassis (for all the switches except the A5800AF-48G/A5820AF-24XG) All A5800 and A5820X switches except the A5800AF-48G and the A5820AF-24XG have three mounting positions: one front mounting position (near the network ports), one mid-mounting position, and one rear mounting position (near the power supplies).
Figure 13 1U bracket rear mounting position Figure 14 2U bracket front mounting position NOTE: Installing the 2U mounting brackets in the rear mounting position is similar to installing the brackets in the front mounting position. To install the 2U mounting brackets in the mid-mounting position of a 2U switch chassis, first use a screwdriver to loosen the three captive screws and separate the mounting brackets from the cable management brackets (see Figure 15).
Page 20
To attach the slide rails to the rack: Identify the rack attachment position for the slide rails. Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rack posts. Align the screw holes in one slide rail with the cage nuts in the rack post on one side, and use screws (user supplied) to attach the slide rail to the rack, as shown in Figure Repeat the preceding step to attach the other slide rail to the rack post on the other side.

To mount the switch in a rack: Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is well grounded.
Page 22
Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rack posts. One person holds the switch chassis and aligns the mounting brackets with the mounting holes in the rack posts, and the other person attaches the mounting brackets with screws (user-supplied) to the rack.
Mounting the switch on a workbench IMPORTANT: Ensure good ventilation and 10 cm (3.9 in) of clearance around the chassis for heat dissipation. Avoid placing heavy objects on the switch. To mount a switch (except the A5800AF-48G and the A5820AF-24XG) on a workbench: Check that the workbench is sturdy and well grounded.

Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack Use short-haul and long-haul SFP+ cables to connect the IRF member switches (10 switches in this example) in a rack as shown in Figure 66. The switches in the ring topology (see Figure 67) are in the same order as connected in the rack.
To bind the ports on an interface card to an IRF port, you must install the interface card first. For how to install an interface card, see HP A5820X & A5800 Switch Series Interface Cards User Guide. Execute the display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings.
Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure that the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other. Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See HP A5820X & A5800 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Check that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.

RPS status LED The RPS status LED shows the status of the RPS DC input. Table 27 describes the RPS status LED behaviors for the A5800-24G, A5800-24G TAA, A5800-48G (1 slot), and A5800-48G TAA (1 slot) switches. Table 28 describes the RPS status LED behaviors for the A5800-24G-PoE+, A5800-24G-PoE+TAA, A5800-48G-PoE+ (1 slot), and A5800-48G-PoE+ TAA (1 slot) switches.

10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet port LED Each 10/100/1000Base-T auto-sensing Ethernet port has a status LED to show port operating status and activities. The port mode LED indicates the type of port status information (for example, port rate or duplex mode) that the port LEDs are showing. You can use the port LED mode switching button to change the type of displayed port information.
Port mode LED Port LED status Description (Mode) status Flashing yellow (3 Hz) POST has failed on the port. No link is present on the port. The port is operating in full duplex mode. The port LED fast Steady green flashes when the port is sending or receiving data.
OAP card status LED The SLOT3 LED on the front chassis panel shows the status of the card in the OAP card slot. Table 36 OAP card status LED description LED mark Status Description Green An OAP card is in the slot and operating properly. The slot does not support the OAP card model, or the OAP SLOT3 Flashing yellow (1 Hz)
Appendix D Cooling system The cooling system of A5800 and A5820X switches is made up of the ventilation holes in the chassis, fan trays, and built-in fans of hot swappable power supplies. To guarantee that this cooling system can work effectively, consider the site ventilation design when you plan the installation site for the switches.
