Preparing for Installation

2.1

Safety Guidelines

Note

To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, review the safety guidelines in this chapter before you
begin the installation.

The following safety precautions may not include all the potentially hazardous situations.
2.1.1

General Precautions


Install the equipment in a standard 19-inch EIA rack.

Keep the chassis clear and dust free. Avoid liquid inside the equipment.

Keep the equipment far away from heat sources.

Ensure that the rack and power distribution system are properly grounded.

Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap and an ESD-preventive glove during installation and maintenance.

Avoid disconnecting or connecting the power cord before powering off the switch.

Keep the equipment away from walk areas.

Do not wear loose clothing or ornament that may get caught in the chassis.

Keep tools and components away from areas where you or others could trip over them.

You are advised to use UPS for guaranteed power protection.

Turn off all power supplies and unplug all power cords and cables before installing or removing the switch.
2.1.2

Chassis-Lifting Guidelines


The chassis is not intended to be moved frequently.

When lifting the chassis, balance the weight of the chassis between your feet.

To prevent personal injury or equipment damage, never attempt to lift or tilt the chassis using the handles of
power or fan module.

The equipment must be installed in access-restricted locations.

Avoid transporting the bare equipment. Instead, transport the equipment with its packing materials.

Do not create a stack containing a greater number of chassis than what is indicated on the packing carton
during transportation. Avoid placing the chassis side up or upside down.

Do not stack bare demo units. Separate demo units using foam blocks. Do not stack over three layers, each
with a height of up to 1 meter (3.28 ft.). Lay the foam blocks side-by-side.
2.1.3

Electricity Safety


Always observe the local regulations and standards. Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed
