Installation preparation Connecting AC power Before you begin • To connect AC power to the switch an appropriate AC power cord is required. Ensure the switch power supply supports AC power input. Danger: Use only power cords with a grounding path. Without a proper ground, a person who touches the switch is in danger of receiving an electrical shock. A switch without a proper grounding path can result in excessive emissions.
Connecting AC power Procedure 1. Plug the female end of the AC power cord into the back of the switch power supply. Important: The switch powers on immediately when it is connected to a suitable AC power source. The switch does not have a power switch. 2. Plug the male end of the AC power cord into a suitable AC power outlet. Caution: Ensure you only use an appropriately rated AC power cord. Do not use an extension cord. Warning: The only way to turn off the switch is to disconnect the power.
Chapter 5: Installing the switch Installing an ERS 3626GTS-PWR+ on a table or shelf You can install the switch model ERS 3626GTS-PWR+ on a flat surface such as a table or shelf. The surface must be able to support the combined weight of the switch and attached cables. An ERS 3626GTS-PWR+ weights 4.75kg (10.47lb). Important: Allow at least 5.1 cm (2 inches) on each side of the switch for proper ventilation and at least 12.7 cm (5 inches) at the back of the switch for power cord clearance.
Installing an ERS 3626GTS-PWR+ on a table or shelf 2. Set the switch on a table or shelf.
Installing the switch Installing ERS 3600 switch in an equipment rack Before you begin Tool requirements • Phillips screwdriver to attach brackets to the switch and the switch to the rack Rack requirements • Space of 2.8 inches (7.1 cm) for each 3626 or 3650 model is available in an E1A or 1EC standard 19 inch (48.2 cm) equipment rack and T1A 23 inch (58.5 cm) equipment rack.
Single and multiple switch arrangements 3. Slide the switch into the rack. Insert and tighten the rack-mount screws. 4. Verify that the switch is securely fastened to the rack. Single and multiple switch arrangements You can connect up to eight switch devices that are in one Rack Unit (RU) height in a stack to provide uninterrupted connectivity for up to 224 ports for ERS3626 switches and up to 416 ports for ERS3650 switches.
Installing the switch The Cascade Down connector connects this switch to the next unit in the stack through a cascade cable. A connection from this connector must be attached to the Cascade Up connector of the next switch in the stack. A return cable from another Cascade Down connector to this unit’s Cascade Up connector completes the stack connection. Important: To create a stack connection, order the appropriate cascade cables to ensure fail-safe stacking.
Single and multiple switch arrangements If an assigned base unit fails, the next unit in the stack order automatically becomes the new temporary base unit. This change is indicated by the Base LED on the temporary base unit LED display panel moving to a steady amber state. This automatic failover is a temporary safeguard only. If the stack configuration loses power, the temporary base unit will not power up as the base unit when power is restored.
Installing the switch Figure 3: Cascade down configuration Note: Return cable length might vary depending on unit spacing. Ensure you order the proper length return cable to provide adequate strain relief. Important: Because many network management software packages assume a cascade down (stack down) configuration, Extreme Networks recommends the usage of this configuration. Cascade up In a cascade up (stack up) configuration, the base unit is physically located as the top unit in the stack.
Single and multiple switch arrangements manner throughout the stack. In this configuration, the base unit discovers the stack in a cascade up (stack up) direction. The following illustration shows a cascade up (stack up) configuration. Figure 4: Cascade up configuration Note: Return cable length might vary depending on unit spacing. Ensure you order the proper length return cable to provide adequate strain relief.
Installing the switch Stack configuration You can change base unit switches with switches on (hot), but changes do not take affect until switches are rebooted. Selecting a base unit Procedure 1. Determine which unit will be the base unit. 2. Locate the Base Unit switch on the rear panel. 3. Slide the switch to the down position to designate it as the base unit. Setting non-base units Procedure Set the Base Unit switches to the up position to designate them as non-base units. Cabling a stack Procedure 1.
Connecting a transceiver to the switch or switch stack Required cable Description Shared SFP Transceiver Ports Varies with the installed SFP Transceiver. Refer to the documentation that was shipped with the SFP Transceiver for specifications. USB Ports USB 2.1 compliant cable with a USB Type A connector on both ends. Important: In Autonegotiation mode, the switches automatically provide the proper MDI/MDI-X connection on the RJ-45 ports; thereby eliminating the need for crossover cables.
Installing the switch Supported optical devices Use optical devices to achieve high-bit-rate communications and long transmission distances. The following section describes the supported optical devices on the switches. Important: Extreme Networks recommends that you use SFP and SFP+ transceivers as they undergo extensive qualification and testing. Extreme Networks will not be responsible for issues related to third party transceivers.
Checking status LEDs to verify switch installation Table 8: SFP transceivers Model Description Part number Important: The following SFP transceivers with the part numbers:AA1419013–E5, AA1419014–E5, AA1419015– E5, and AA1419025–E5 to AA1419040–E5. However, Extreme Networks recommends using the newer DDI versions of these SFP transceivers.
Installing the switch Important: When used as Stacking ports, the LEDs on the left of the switch indicate Stack port status. The Stack Up and Stack Down LEDs are updated as the Stack ports become active or idle. Their local port LEDs do not indicate Stack port status. When used as Standalone ports, the local LEDs indicate port status, like all other ports.
Checking status LEDs to verify switch installation LED State Description PWR Off The unit power is off. Green (Solid) Normal operation. Off System cannot work properly (like temperature is too high). Amber (Solid) The system failed self-test. Green (Solid) Normal operation. Off No Stack-up or Stack-down connection is detected. Amber (Solid) A Stack-up or Stack-down cable is detected, but adjacency has not been completed.
