Examining the installation environment Before installing this switch series, check if the environment meets the requirements to ensure that the switch operates properly. For information about site check items, see Table Table 2 Checking list for the installation environment Item Requirements Ensure a minimum clearance of 10 cm (3.94 in) around the chassis.
Item Requirements outdoors, connect the AC power cord first to a power lightning arrester before leading it to the AC power port on the switch. Make sure the power lightning arrester has a nominal discharge current and the total length of the power cord from the power lighting arrester to the power port on the switch is less than 5 m (16.40 ft).
Corrosive gas limit Corrosive gases can accelerate corrosion and aging of metal components. Make sure the corrosive gases in the equipment room do not exceed the concentration limits as shown in Table Table 4 Corrosive gas concentration limits Average concentration Maximum concentration (mg/m3) (mg/m...
Category Definition Example • Indoor environments where Simple equipment rooms, ordinary temperature and humidity are houses, garages, corridors, and direct partially controlled. A2: indoor partially ventilation cabinets far from pollution • Incompletely enclosed or controlled environment sources, houses without direct exposure shielded places.
Item Requirements • If the external power supply system provides an AC power outlet, use a country-specific AC power cord. Make sure the PE wire of the AC power supply is Power receptacle grounded reliably. and cables • Do not use the power cord provided with the switch on other devices. Installation tools No installation tools are provided with the switch.

Figure 3 Attaching the mounting brackets to the switch Mounting the switch in the rack This task requires two people. To mount the switch in the rack: Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. Verify that the mounting brackets have been securely attached to the switch chassis.
Mounting the switch on a wall Affix the installation positioning sticker horizontally to the wall with the arrow on it facing downwards. Figure 5 Installation positioning sticker Drill two holes with a diameter of 6 mm (0.24 in) and a depth of 35 mm (1.38 in) at the screw hole locations on the positioning sticker, and then remove the positioning sticker.

Figure 8 Fastening a screw into a screw anchor Align the installation holes in the switch with the screws on the wall. Make sure the port side faces downwards. Hang the switch on the screws and slide the switch down until the screws seat securely in the installation holes.
• Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and ESD and EMI protection. You must connect the grounding cable correctly and reliably for the switch. • For information about lightning protection for the switch, see H3C Network Devices Lightning Protection Guide.

If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, use the grounding cable provided with the switch to connect the switch to the grounding strip. Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis Remove the grounding screw in the rear panel of the chassis. Use the grounding screw to attach the ring terminal of the grounding cable to the grounding screw hole.
10 ohms. For locations with high soil resistivity, sprinkle some resistance reducer to reduce soil resistivity or replace soil around the grounding strip with soil with lower resistance. For information about resistance measurement, see H3C Network Devices Lightning Protection Guide. Connecting power cords CAUTION: Provide a circuit breaker for each power cord.
Connecting the AC power cord Connect the female connector of the AC power cord to the AC-input power receptacle on the switch, as shown in Figure Use a cable tie to secure the power cord to the handle near the AC-input power receptacle, as shown in Figure Connect the other end of the AC power cord to an AC power source.
To connecting a power adapter: Connect the power adapter to an AC power cord. (This step is only applicable to a type-2 power adapter.) Insert the circular plug of the power adapter into the power adapter receptacle on the switch. Connect the other end of the power adapter to an external AC power source.
