Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix 7.3 Surge Protection Installing AC Power Arrester (Surge Protection Power Strip) The AC power port must be connected to an external surge protection power strip to prevent the switch from being struck by lightning when the AC power cord is introduced from the outdoor and directly connected to the power port of the switch.
Page 47
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix Installing the Ethernet Port Arrester Please connect an Ethernet port arrester to the switch to prevent the damage by lightning before connecting an outdoor Ethernet cable to the switch. Tools: Phillips screwdrivers or flat-head screwdriver, multimeter, and diagonal pliers Installation Steps: Tear one side of the protective paper for the double-sided adhesive tape and paste the tape to the housing of the Ethernet port arrester.
Page 48
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix Reversed installation direction of the arrester. Connect the external Ethernet cable to the IN end and connect the Ethernet port of the switch to the OUT end. Poor grounding of the arrester. The ground cable of the arrester should be as short as possible to ensure that it is in good contact with the ground terminal of the switch.
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix 7.4 Cabling Recommendations When the switch is installed in a standard 19-inch rack, secure the cables around the cable management brackets. Top cabling or bottom cabling is adopted according to the actual situation in the equipment room. All transferred cable connectors should be placed at the bottom of the rack in an orderly manner instead of outside the rack that is easy to touch.
Page 50
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix Cables of different types (such as power cords, signal cables, and ground cables) should be separated in cabling and bundling. Mixed bundling is disallowed. When they are close to each other, it is recommended to adopt crossover cabling.
Page 51
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix Figure 7-9 Bundling Up Cables (3) Cables not to be assembled or remaining parts of cables should be folded and placed in a proper position of the rack or cable trough. The proper position refers to a position that does not affect switch performance or damage the switch or cable.
Page 52
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix Figure 7-10 Cable Fastening Hard power cords should be fastened in the terminal connection area to prevent stress on terminal connection and cable. Do not use self-tapping screws to fasten terminals. Power cords of the same type and in the same cabling direction should be bundled up into cable bunches, with cables in cable bunches clean and straight.
Hardware Installation and Reference Guide Appendix 7.5 Site Selection The equipment room should be at least 5 km away from heavy pollution sources, such as the smelter works, coal mine, and thermal power plant. The equipment room should be at least 3.7 km away from medium pollution sources, such as the chemical factory, rubber factory, and electroplating factory.
