4 Remove all packing material. 5 Inspect the product and accessories for damage. Rack or cabinet hardware installation You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310- E-compliant rack. Rack mounting includes four-post, two-post, or threaded mounts. The ReadyRails system is provided for 1U front-rack and two-post installations. The ReadyRails system includes separately packaged rail assemblies.
Figure 8. Separate rails Tool-less square-hole installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. CAUTION: Your switch is not NEBS Earthquake Z4-compliant if you this installation method. 1 With the ReadyRails flange ears facing outward, place one rail between the left and right vertical posts. Align and seat the back flange rail pegs in the back vertical post flange.
Figure 9. 1U tool-less nonthreaded square hole installation 2 Align and seat the front flange pegs in the holes on the front side of the vertical post. NOTE: Be sure that the rails click into place and are secure. 3 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. To remove each rail, pull on the latch release on each flange ear and unseat each rail. Two-post flush-mount installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly.
Figure 10. Two-post flush-mount configuration 2 Attach one rail to the front post flange with two user-supplied screws. See item 2. 3 Slide the plunger bracket forward against the vertical post and secure the plunger bracket to the post flange with two user-supplied screws. See item 3. 4 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. Two-post center-mount installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly.
Figure 11. Two-post center-mount threaded round-hole installation 2 Slide the back bracket towards the post. Secure it to the post flange with two user-supplied screws. See item 2 and 3. 3 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. Four-post threaded installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. CAUTION: To be NEBS Earthquake Z4-compliant, you must remove the tool-less latch castings described in Step 1.
Figure 12. Four-post threaded round-hole installation 2 For each rail, attach the front and back flanges to the post flanges with two user-supplied screws at each end. Switch installation You can mount the switch in the 1U front-rack or 1U two-post, flush or center configuration. The following is an example of a front-rack configuration: For the 1U two-post configurations, slide the switch into the rails in the same manner as the four-post configurations.
Figure 13. Attach switch rail 2 After installing both switch rails, line them up on the previously mounted ReadyRails and slide the switch in until it is flush with front of rack. To keep the switch from inadvertently sliding out of the rack and falling, about 3 inches before you fully insert your switch, the rail locking feature engages.
Figure 14. Front rack installation NOTE: Do not the use the mounted ReadyRails as a shelf or a workplace. 3 Tighten the two thumb screws and rack screws. To remove the switch from the rack or cabinet, press in the two side-release bars on the switch at the same time and slide the switch forward. Ground cable NOTE: For AC-powered switches, although the third conductor of the AC power cord provides a ground path, Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire.
To connect the ground cable to the switch, follow these steps: 1 Cut your ground cable (not included) to the desired length. The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable. 2 To attach the ground cable, use one of the following: • Using one threaded M3 hole, attached the ground cable to the lug using an M3 screw with a captive internal tooth lock washer. Torque the screw to ±4-5 in-lbs.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S5148F-ON switch and components. Power up sequence When the switch powers up, the fans immediately come on at high speed. The fan speed slows as the switch continues to boot up. After switch placement After you have securely installed and powered on the S5148F-ON switch, for more information: • If you are using Dell EMC software, see switch documentation at www.dell.
6 Power supplies The S5148F-ON switch ships with two AC or DC power supplies. The two power supplies have two air-flow directions—from the I/O to the PSU and from the PSU to the I/O. Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the switch can operate with a single PSU. The PSUs are field replaceable. When running with full redundancy—two power supplies installed and running—you can remove and replace one PSU without disrupting traffic.
The PSUs have an integrated fan, which you cannot replace individually; if the fan integrated in a PSU fails, you must replace the entire PSU. You can replace the fan trays individually. For fan tray replacement procedures, see Fans. WARNING: Prevent exposure and contact with hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to operate this switch with the safety cover removed. CAUTION: Remove the power cable from the PSU before removing the PSU.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 if you have a redundant PSU using the second PSU slot on the S5148F-ON switch. NOTE: The S5148F-ON switch powers up when you connect the cables between the power supply and the power source. AC or DC power supply replacement CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord before removing the power supplies. Also, disconnect all power cords before servicing. NOTE: The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force a PSU into a slot as this action may damage the PSU or the S5148FON switch.
1 Strip 0.5 inches of insulation from each of the power connector’s wires, RTN and –48V. 2 Insert each of the power connector’s bare wire lengths into the wiring block. Insert RTN into one hole and –48V into the other hole. 3 Use a flat-blade screwdriver to tighten the screws that secures the bare wires into the wiring block. 4 Secure the site’s DC power source wires to the other side of the wiring block, see steps 1 and 3. WARNING: Do not cross the wires.
7 Fans The S5148F-ON switch comes from the factory with two PSUs and four fan modules installed in the switch. The fan modules and the power supplies, which have integrated fans, are hot-swappable. In addition to the power supply modules, you can order and install fan modules separately. The S5148F-ON switch supports two airflow direction options. Do not mix airflow types in a switch; you can use only a single airflow direction in a switch.
Fan LEDs • Solid green—Fan function is normal. • Flashing yellow—There is a fan fault. • Off—Fan is off. Fan module installation The fan modules in the S5148F-ON switch are field replaceable. Module slot 1 is on the left side of the switch; module slot 4 is on the right side of the switch. CAUTION: DO NOT mix airflow directions. All fans must use the same airflow direction—reverse or normal. If you mix the airflow direction, to avoid damage to the switch, you must correct the mixed airflow.
You must replace the fan air filters with new filters; you cannot clean and reuse the old fan air filters. Replacement filter media must meet the requirements found in GR-63-CORE. • Minimum dust arrestance of 65%, per ASHRAE Standard 52.1-1992. OR • Minimum Efficiency Rating Value (MERV) of 2, per ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 52.2-2007. CAUTION: For Network Equipment Building Systems (NEBS) compliance, use NEBS-approved filters. Use fan air filters with reverse blue-banded air flow switches—PSUs and fans.
