Installing and Configuring the Edge Switch 2/32

Task 2: Unpack, Inspect, and Install the Switch

The following paragraphs provide instructions to unpack and inspect the edge switch
2/32, and install it in a desktop or rack-mount configuration.

Unpack and Inspect the Switch

Unpack and inspect the switch:

CAUTION: When you remove the switch from the carton, do not rest it on its rear
window while examining it. To do so may break the FRU handles.

1. Inspect the shipping containers for damage caused during transit. If a container is

damaged, ensure a representative from the freight carrier is present when the
container is opened.

2. Unpack the shipping containers and inspect each item for damage. Save all

shipping and packing materials. Ensure that all items on the enclosed shipping list
are in each container.

3. If any items are damaged or missing, customers should contact a HP authorized

service provider or reseller.

Desktop Installation

To install and configure the switch on a desktop:

1. Remove the backing from the four adhesive rubber pads and apply the pads to the

underside of the switch. Ensure the pads are aligned with the scribed circles at
each corner.

2. Position the switch on a table or desktop as directed by the customer. Ensure:

Grounded AC electrical outlets are available.

Adequate ventilation is present.

Areas with excessive heat, dust, or moisture are avoided.

All planning considerations are met. Refer to the hp StorageWorks product in
a SAN environment: planning guide for director 2/64, edge switch 2/16, and
edge switch 2/32
.

3. Verify that all FRUs are installed as ordered.
