Preparing for installation
The H3C S6890 Switch Series includes the following models:
S6890-54HF
S6890-30HF
Safety recommendations
To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury caused by incorrect use, read the following safety
recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible
hazardous condition.
Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch
with wet cloth or liquid.
Do not place the switch near water or in a damp environment. Prevent water or moisture from
entering the chassis.
Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk. The switch might be severely damaged in
case of a fall.
Ensure good ventilation in the equipment room and make sure the air inlet and outlet vents of
the switch are not blocked.
Make sure the input voltage for the power module is in the required range.
To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the
switch is just powered off.
When replacing field replaceable units (FRUs), including power modules and fan trays, wear an
ESD wrist strap to avoid damaging the units.
Examining the installation site
The switch must be used indoors.
Make sure the installation site meets the following requirements:
Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and outlet vents for ventilation.
The rack has a good ventilation system.
Identify the hot aisle and cold aisle at the installation site, and make sure ambient air flows into
the switch from the cold aisle and exhausts to the hot aisle.
Identify the airflow designs of neighboring devices, and prevent hot air flowing out of the
neighboring devices from entering the top device.
The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.
The rack is reliably grounded.
To ensure correct operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an environment that meets
the requirements described in the following subsections.
Temperature/humidity
Maintain the temperature and humidity in the equipment room in the acceptable range.
Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical
property change of materials, and metal corrosion.
2
Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and cause problems
including loose mounting screws and circuit failure.
High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the
reliability and lifespan of the switch.
For the temperature and humidity requirements for the switch, see "Technical specifications."
Cleanliness
Dust buildup on the chassis might result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of
metal components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst
case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.
Table 1 Dust concentration limit in the equipment room

EMI
All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the switch and application
system, adversely affect the switch in the following ways:
A conduction pattern of capacitance coupling.
Inductance coupling.
Electromagnetic wave radiation.
Common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling.
To prevent EMI, use the following guidelines:
If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE)
to filter interference from the power grid.
Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency
devices.
Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.
To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning
strikes, route interface cables only indoors.
3
Laser safety
WARNING!
The switch is a Class 1 laser device.
Do not stare into any disconnected fiber port or optical fiber. The laser light emitted from the fibe
r
port or optical fiber might hurt your eyes.
Installation tools
No installation tools are provided with the switch. Prepare the following tools yourself:
Phillips screwdriver.
ESD wrist strap.
Marker.

Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis
CAUTION:
The primary grounding point and auxiliary grounding point 1 are located on the left panel of the
chassis. If you use one of these grounding points, you must connect the grounding cable to the
grounding point before you mount the switch in the rack.
The grounding cable and grounding screw that come with the switch are applicable to both the
primary and auxiliary grounding points.
To connect the grounding cable:
1. Choose a grounding point as required.
This example uses the primary grounding point.
2. Unpack the grounding cable and grounding screws.
3. Use two grounding screws to attach the two-hole grounding lug of the grounding cable to the
grounding holes at the grounding point. Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws. See Figure 10.

Attaching the slide rails to the rack
The installation procedure is similar for short and long slide rails. The following procedure uses long
slide rails as an example.
To attach the slide rails to the rack:
1. Identify the slide rail installation position in the rack.
2. Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rack posts.
3. Align the screw holes in a slide rail with the cage nuts in a rear rack post, and use screws
(user-supplied) to attach the slide rail to the post, as shown in Figure 11.
4. Rep
eat the preceding steps to attach the other slide rail to the other rear rack post.
Keep the two slide rails at the same height so that the slide rails can slide into the chassis rails.
Figure 11 Installing the slide rails
10
Mounting the switch in the rack
This task requires two people.
To mount the switch in the rack:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Verify that the mounting brackets and chassis rails have been securely attached to the switch
chassis.
3. Verify that the slide rails have been correctly attached to the rear rack posts.
4. Attach cage nuts (user-supplied) to the front rack posts and make sure they are at the same
level as the slide rails.
5. One person performs the following tasks:
a. Supporting the bottom of the switch, aligns the chassis rails with the slide rails on the rack
posts.
b. Pushes the switch slowly to slide the chassis rails along the slide rails until the mounting
brackets are flush with the rack posts.
6. Another person uses screws (user-supplied) to attach the mounting brackets to the rack.
To secure the switch in the rack, make sure the front ends of the slide rails reach out of the
chassis rails.

Figure 13 Mounting the switch in the rack (Port-side mounting position for the mounting
brackets) (S6890-54HF)
Grounding the switch
CAUTION:
Correctly connecting the grounding cable for the switch is crucial to lightning protection and EMI
protection.
As a best practice to guarantee the grounding effect, connect the grounding cable provided with
the switch to the grounding strip in the equipment room.
The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the
chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this
chassis ground to the earth so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the
earth to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.
NOTE:
The power and grounding terminals positions in the figures in this section are for illustration only.
CAUTION:
Connect the grounding cable to the grounding system in the equipment room. Do not connect it to a
fire main or lightning rod.
To connect the grounding cable:
1. Attach the two-hole grounding lug of the grounding cable to a grounding point on the chassis.
For more information, see "Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis."
2. Remove the
hex nut of a grounding post on the grounding strip.
3. Attach the ring terminal of the grounding cable to the grounding post on the grounding strip, and
secure the ring terminal to the grounding post with the hex nut.

Installing/removing fan trays
CAUTION:
To ensure good ventilation of the switch, follow these guidelines to install and remove fan trays:
The switch comes with the fan tray slots empty. Before powering on the switch, make sure all fan
tray slots have fan trays installed and the fan trays are the same model.
Make sure all slots have a module or filler panel installed when the switch is operating.
If multiple fan trays fail on an operating switch, do not remove the fan trays at the same time.
Replace the fan trays one after another and finish replacing a fan tray within 3 minutes.
The installation and removal procedures are the same for the LSWM1FANSA and LSWM1FANSAB
fan trays. The following installation and removal procedures use the LSWM1FANSA fan tray as an
example.
Installing a fan tray
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the fan tray or the connectors in the chassis, insert the fan tray gently. If you
encounter a hard resistance while inserting the fan tray, pull out the fan tray and insert it again.

IMPORTANT:
Before powering on the switch, make sure the fan tray airflow direction and the preferred airflow
direction of the switch are the same. If they are not the same, the system generates traps and logs.
You can use the fan prefer-direction command to configure the preferred airflow direction for the
switch. By default, the preferred airflow direction of the switch is from the port side to the power
module side. For more information about the fan prefer-direction command, see H3C S6890
Switch Series Fundamentals Command Reference.
Select fan trays for the switch as needed. For the available fan trays and their specifications, see
"Fan trays."
To install a fan tray:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Unpack the fan tray and verify that the fan tray model is correct.
3. Orient the fan tray with the "TOP" mark at the top. Grasping the handle of the fan tray with one
hand and supporting the fan tray bottom with the other, slide the fan tray into the slot along the
guide rails until the fan tray is fully seated in the slot and has a firm contact with the backplane.
See Figure 15.
Figure 15
Installing an LSWM1FANSA fan tray in the switch (S6890-54HF)
Removing a fan tray
WARNING!
Ensure electricity safety and never touch the rotating fans when you hot-swap a fan tray.
To prevent a fan from causing loud noise, do not touch the fan blades and rotation axis, even if
the fan is not rotating.
To remove a fan tray:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
