Safety recommendations

To avoid possible bodily injury and equipment damage, read the following safety

recommendations before installing an H3C S9500E switch. Note that the recommendations do

not cover every possible hazardous condition.

• Take adequate safety measures to avoid injury and switch damage.

• Make sure that the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.

• Keep the chassis clean and dust-free.

Installation workflow

Figure 1 Installation flow of the switch

Install the switch on a rack

This S12500 Quick Start Guide provides steps to install the switch on a rack. The S12500

Installation Guide also provides steps to install the S12500 on a workbench.

This section explains how to install mounting and cable management brackets for the S9505E

and S9512E. See the S9500E Installation Guide for steps on installing the mounting brackets and

cable management brackets for the S9508E-V.

Preparation

• Check that the cabinet is well grounded and secured. Make sure the layout inside the rack

for the switch installation is done and there is no debris left inside or around the cabinet.

• There is enough space around the cabinet for heat-dissipation.

Install the mounting brackets and cable management brackets for the S9505E and S9512E

1. Install the cable management brackets on the mounting brackets with tapping screws.

Attach the mounting brackets onto the left and right sides of the switch, as shown in Figure

Figure 2 Install the mounting brackets and cable management brackets

Install the switch in the rack

1. Place the switch on the support tray and slide the switch along the slide rails until the

mounting brackets on the switch reach the rack posts.

2. Use mounting screws to fix the mounting brackets to the rack posts.

Connect the PGND cable

The switch must be well grounded. The resistance reading between switch chassis and the ground must be

less than 1 ohm.

Connection in generic grounding environment

This section describes connecting in a generic grounding environment. See the S9500 Installation

Guide for methods for grounding the switch in different grounding environments.

1. Remove the screw from the grounding hole on the switch chassis.

2. Put the supplied OT terminal of the PGND cable on the grounding screw.

3. Insert the grounding screw into the grounding hole and screw it down.

4. Connect the other end of the PGND cable to the grounding strip of the cabinet.

Install a power system

See the S9500 Installation Guide for instructions for installing a power system.

Install a card

Before installing a card, follow these preparations.

1. Put on an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure that the wrist strap is properly

grounded.

2. Remove the blank panel (if any) from the slot to be used.

3. Prepare the card to be installed.

Follow these steps to install a card:

1. Move the ejector levers outwards, hold the module by the handle, and push the board into

the slot along slide rails slowly.

2. Push the ejector levers inward to ensure a firm contact between the board and the

backplane.

3. Position the screws into the holes and fasten them with a screwdriver to fix the board.

Install a fan tray

This guide provides steps to install a fan tray for an S9505E or S9512E. See the S9500E

Installation Guide for steps to install a fan tray for an S9508E-V

1. Put on an ESD-preventive wrist strap and make sure the wrist strap is well grounded.

2. Push the fan tray along the guide rails until it has a good contact with the backplane.

3. Fasten the screws on the fan tray panel.

Connect the console cable

This section provides information on connecting the console cable. See the S9500E Installation

Guide for information on connecting the AUX cable, network cables and optical fibers.

1. Plug the DB-9 female connector of the console cable to the serial port of the PC or terminal

where the switch is to be configured.

2. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the console cable to the console port of the switch.

Set up a configuration environment

1. Launch a terminal emulation utility. Select Start > Programs > Accessories >

Communications > HyperTerminal to access the HyperTerminal window. Click

the window to set up a new connection. The Connection Description dialog box

appears.

Enter the name of the new connection in the Connection Description dialog box, and

click OK. Select a port from the Connect using drop-down list.

3. Set serial port parameters. Set the bits per second to 9600, data bits to 8, parity to None,

stop bits to 1, and flow control to None.

4. Click OK to enter the HypterTerminal window,

5. Select File > Properties in the HyperTerminal window to access the Properties window.

Click Settings in the Window, select VT100 for terminal emulation, and click OK.

Power on the switch

To power on the switch, perform the following steps:

1. Turn on the power switch of the power source providing power to the switch.

2. Turn on the power switch of the PWR on the switch.

H3C recommends that you check the following conditions after the switch is powered on:

• The cooling system is working (you can hear the noise caused by fan rotation and feel air

exhausted out.)

• All the system LEDs on the MPUs function normally.

• All the LEDs on the PSUs function normally. Input LED IN and output LED OUT is on, and the

fault LED FAIL is off.

Verify the installation

Make sure that you have turned off the power before checking the installation to avoid bodily injury and

device damage.

After installing the switch, verify the installation against the following list. For the successful

installation, all items must be normal.
