CH A P T E R 2 Preparing for Installation Planning a proper location for the switch and the layout of your equipment rack or wiring closet is essential for successful system operation.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Safety Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: • This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack. • When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements Site Requirements These sections describe the basic site requirements that you should be aware of before you install your Cisco ME 6524 Ethernet switch. Environmental factors can adversely affect the performance and longevity of your system.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements Verify that the enclosed or partially enclosed rack allows an adequate flow of air through the switch chassis as follows: Note • If the difference between the measured intake air temperature and the exhaust air temperature does not exceed 50°F (10°C), there is sufficient airflow in the rack. • If the difference in air temperature exceeds 50°F (10°C), there is insufficient airflow to cool the chassis.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements Dust and Contamination Chassis fans cool power supplies and systems by drawing in air and exhausting air out through various perforations in the chassis cover. However, fans also ingest dust and other particles, causing contaminant buildup in the system and increased internal chassis temperature.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements Shock and Vibration Cisco ME 6524 Ethernet switches have been shock- and vibration-tested for operating ranges, handling, and earthquake standards to NEBS (Zone 4 per GR-63-Core). These tests have been conducted in earthquake environment and criteria, office vibration and criteria, transportation vibration and criteria, and packaged equipment shock. System Grounding Grounding is one of the most important parts of equipment installation.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements Table 2-1 Grounding Practice Guidelines (continued) Environment Note Electromagnetic Noise Severity Level Grounding Recommendations A new commercial building is Low not subject to natural environmental noise or man-made industrial noise. This building contains a standard office environment. Best grounding practices should be followed as closely as possible; consult with the site or local electrician.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Site Requirements After you install the system ground lug, follow these steps to attach the ESD wrist strap correctly: Step 1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to bare skin as follows: a. If you are using the ESD wrist strap supplied with the FRUs, open the wrist strap package and unwrap the ESD wrist strap.
