S5200F-ON Series switch installation
To install the S5200F-ON Series (S5232F-ON, S5248F-ON, S5296F-ON, S5224F-ON, and S5212F-ON) switch, complete the
installation procedures in the order presented in this chapter.
Always handle the switch and components with care. Avoid dropping the switch or its field replaceable units (FRUs).
For the S5212F-ON switch installation instructions, see One-half U front-rack installation. For the S5224F-ON, S5248F-ON,
and S5232F-ON switches, you can install the ReadyRails system. Due to the chassis weight, the S5296F-ON switch does not
support a two-post rack installation; you must install the S5296F-ON in a four-post rack. For the S5296F-ON switch installation
instructions, see S5296F-ON four-post rack assembly.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap
when handling the S5200F-ON Series switch and components. As with all electrical devices of this type, take all the
necessary safety precautions to prevent injury when installing this switch.

S5232F-ON NEBS compliance
The S5232F-ON switch qualifies as network equipment building system-3 (NEBS-3) compliant.
To be NEBS-compliant, orient your switch in the rack so that the air inlet is from the front aisle and the air exhaust is to the
back aisle.
Important information
WARNING: To be NEBS-compliant:
● Locate your switch in a restricted-access area were only trained personnel are allowed access.
● Install and connect your switch to the common bonding network (CBN).
● You can also install and connect your switch to the central office.
● Connect the battery returns of your switch as DC-I.
● Use a shielded and grounded cable at both ends of the management port.
● Ground your switch using a copper ground conductor.
● Clean and coat all bare grounding connection points on your switch with an antioxidant solution before making connections.
● Bring all unplated ground connection surfaces on your switch to a bright finish and treat them with an antioxidant solution
before making connections.
● To ensure electrical continuity, remove any nonconductive surfaces from the ground connection points and threaded holes
that are used to secure the ground lugs.
