Ensure that the ambient air temperature does not exceed 40 ºC (104 ºF) while

the switch is operating.

NOTE:

Do not block air vents. The switch uses ambient air for cooling.

Installing the switch as a stand-alone device

To install the switch as a stand-alone unit:

1.

Unpack the switch and verify that all items listed in

Shipping carton

contents

on page 35 are present.

2.

Locate the four rubber feet in the accessory box.

3.

Apply the adhesive rubber feet to the switch. The rubber feet help prevent the switch

from sliding off the supporting surface:
a. Clean the indentations at each corner of the bottom of the switch to ensure that

they are free of dust or other debris that might lessen the adhesion of the feet.

b. With the adhesive side against the chassis, place one rubber foot in each

indentation and press into place.

4.

Place the switch on a flat, sturdy surface.

5.

Apply power to the switch as described in

Powering on and off

on page 66.

CAUTION:

Do not connect the switch to the network until the IP address is set. For instructions on

setting the IP address, see

Cabling and configuring the SAN Switch

on page 52.
