Installing the X870 Series Switch
You can install an X870 series switch in a rack. There are four possible
rack mounting configurations, depending upon whether:
• The switch I/O ports or the device’s power supply side face front.
• The device is mounted flush with the rack posts or mid-mounted.
Securing the Switch to the Rack
To secure an X870 series switch to a rack:
1 Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the switch using six
screws for each bracket.
2 Align the rack mount ear holes with the front rack post holes.
3 Secure the switch to each rack post with two screws or fasteners
appropriate to the rack.
Installing Optical Transceivers
This installation procedure applies to all optical transceivers. To install a
transceiver in an X870 series switch:
1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and connect the metal end
to an appropriate ground point on the rack.
2 Remove the optical transceiver from its packaging.
3 If there is a protective dust cover on the connector, remove it at this
time.
4 Hold the optical transceiver so that the connector will seat properly.
5 Carefully align the optical transceiver with the port slot.
6 Push the optical transceiver into the port slot until the transceiver
clicks and locks into place.
Connecting Power to the Switch
You can connect to a single, primary source of power, or to two sources
of power for redundancy.
To power up your X870 series switch, do the following:
1 Connect the AC power cord to the AC power input socket on the
power supply and an AC power outlet.
2 For DC powered supplies, verify that the DC circuit is de-energized
and then do the following:
a Identify the grounding stud on the DC power supply. The grounding
stud is next to the DC input connector, identified by the international
symbol for earth ground.
b Using the nut and washer provided, connect the ring terminal end of
the ground wire to the grounding stud on the DC power supply.
Use green and yellow stranded copper wire, sized at least 14 AWG.
c Connect the other end of the ground wire to a reliable earth ground.
d Connect the DC power input cables to the DC input connector
provided.
Use copper wires rated for at least 60°C and sized between 14 AWG
and 8 AWG.
e Energize the circuit.
3 When power is connected, verify that the switch’s PWR LED turns
green. If the PWR LED does not turn green, refer to the Hardware
Installation Guide for troubleshooting information.
Selection of Power Cords
Extreme Networks does not include any power input cords. To purchase
the correct power cord for your specific country, refer to
www.extremenetworks.com/product/powercords/. This page lists power
cord details for purchasing a cord from Extreme Networks or your local
supplier.
Caution: Before rack-mounting the device, ensure that the rack can support it
without compromising stability. Otherwise, personal injury and/or equipment
damage may result.
Note: The rack mounting brackets provide two holes for securing the X870
Series switches to the rack. Use two screws or fasteners appropriate to your
rack on each side when securing the X870 Series switch to the rack.
Warning: LASER RADIATION
Fiber-optic ports use Class 1 or Class 1M lasers.
DO NOT EXPOSE USERS OF TELESCOPIC OPTICS
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of optical
instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard. Use only UL/CSA,
EN60825-1/-2 recognized pluggable modules.
Avertissements: RAYONNEMENT LASER
Ports de fibres optiques utilisent des lasers de classe 1 ou de
classe 1M.
