• Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. • Reliable earthing — Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to the supply connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit, for example: use of power strips. • Do not mount the equipment with the rear panel facing in the downward position.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com 24 Configuring a Two-Post Flush-Mount Step 1 Task For this configuration, remove the castings from the front side of each ReadyRails assembly. Refer to Figure 4-2, item 1. To remove the two screws from each front flange ear (on the switch side of the rail) and remove each casting, use a Torx driver. Retain the castings for future rack requirements. It is not necessary to remove the rear flange castings. Figure 4-2.
Configuring a Two-Post Center-Mount Step 1 Task Slide the plunger bracket rearward until it clicks into place and secure the bracket to the front post flange with two user-supplied screws. Refer to Figure 4-3, item 1. Figure 4-3. Two-Post Center-Mount Configuration 2 Slide the back bracket towards the post and secure it to the post flange with two user-supplied screws. Refer to Figure 4-3, item 2. 3 Repeat this procedure for the second rail.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com 26 Configure a Four-Post Thread Step Task 1 For this configuration, remove the flange ear castings from each end of the ReadyRails assemblies. To remove the two screws from each flange ear and remove each casting, use a Torx driver. Refer to Figure , item 1. Retain the castings for future rack requirements. 2 For each rail, attach the front and rear flanges to the post flanges with two user-supplied screws at each end. Refer to Figure , item 2. Figure 4-4.
Installing the S6000 Switch You can mount the switch in the 1U front-rack or 1U two-post (flush and center) configurations. The following is an example of a front-rack configuration. For the 1U two-post (flush and center) configurations, slide the switch into the rails in the same manner as the four-post configurations. Installing a 1U Front-Rack You must configure the rails that are attached to the switch. Step 1 Task Attach the switch rails (inner switch members) to the S6000 switch.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com Step Task After you have installed both switch rails, line them up on the previously mounted Ready-Rails and slide the switch in until it is flush with front of rack. About three inches prior to full insertion, the rail locking feature engages to keep the switch from inadvertently sliding out of the rack and falling. 2 NOTE: Do not the use the mounted Ready-Rails as a shelf or a workplace. Figure 4-6.
Step Task 2 Cut the cable to the desired length. The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt circuits. Dell Networking recommends using of the shortest cable route allowable. 3 Attach the one-hole lug to the switch using the supplied 10-32 screw with the captive internal tooth lock washer. Torque the screw to 20 in-lbs. 4 Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point. The rack installation ears are not a suitable grounding point.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com To install an AC or DC power supply, follow these steps: Step Task 1 Remove the PSU slot cover from the S6000 (PSU side of switch), either of the two PSU slots may be selected. 2 Remove the PSU from the electrostatic bag. 3 Insert the PSU into the switch PSU slot (insert the PSU-exposed PCB edge connector first). The PSU slot is keyed such that the PSU can only be fully inserted in one orientation.
Installing QSFP+ Optics The S6000 has 32 40Gbps QSFP+ optical ports. WARNING: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S6000 and its components. WARNING: When working with optical fibers, follow all warning labels and always wear eye protection. Never look directly into the end of a terminated or unterminated fiber or connector, which may cause eye damage.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com Power Up the S6000 Switch Supply power to the S6000 after it is mounted in a rack or cabinet. Dell Networking recommends re-inspecting your switch prior to powering up. Verify that the: • equipment is properly secured to the rack and properly grounded. • equipment rack is properly mounted and grounded. • ambient temperature around the unit (which may be higher than the room temperature) is within the limits specified for the S6000.
5 Power Supplies The S6000 supports two hot-swappable PSUs with integrated fans that provide cooling for the switch. The S6000 supports AC and DC power supplies with two air-flow directions (I/O to PSU and PSU to I/ O). Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the switch will operate with a single PSU. NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Dell Networking recommends using power supply 1 (PSU1) as the blank plate slot. The PSUs are field replaceable.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com The PSUs are in a single piece with the PSU fans (see Figure 5-1). You can replace the fan trays individually, but you cannot replace the fans that are integrated in the PSUs—if the fans integrated in the PSU fail, you must replace the entire PSU. For fan tray replacement procedures, refer to Chapter 6, Fans. WARNING: Prevent exposure and contact with hazardous voltages. Do not attempt to operate this switch with the safety cover removed.
Step Task 4 Plug in the appropriate cord (AC 3 prong or DC wiring) from the switch PSU to the external power source (either an AC wall outlet or a DC rack bus bar). 5 If you have a redundant PSU (a second PSU), repeat steps 1 through 4 above using the second PSU slot on the S6000 switch. NOTE: The S6000 powers up as soon as the cables are connected between the power supply and the power source.
www.dell.com | support.dell.com Figure 5-2. DC Power Connector and Wiring Block Screws Wiring Block Power Connector To connect a S6000 DC PSU to the site’s DC power source, follow these steps: Step Task 1 Strip 1/2” of insulation from each of the power connector’s wires (red and black, See Figure 5-2). 2 Insert each of the power connector’s bare wire lengths into the wiring block (See Figure 5-2). Red into one hole and black into the other hole.
6 Fans The S6000 comes from the factory with two PSUs and three fan modules installed in the switch (see Figure 6-1). The S6000 has SKUs that support the following configurations. Installation of the fans is done as part of the factory install based on SKU type. • AC PSU with fan airflow from I/O to PSU • AC PSU with fan airflow from PSU to I/O • DC PSU with fan airflow from I/O to PSU • DC PSU with fan airflow from PSU to I/O All fans and PSUs in a configuration must be in the same airflow direction.
