Preparing for installation

H3C S5150-EI Switch Series includes the following models:

• S5150X-16S-EI.

• S5150X-16ST-EI.

• S5150-24S-PWR-EI.

Safety recommendations

To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury caused by improper 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 switch 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 of the equipment room and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the

switch free of obstruction.

• Connect the yellow-green protection grounding cable before power-on.

• Make sure the operating voltage is in the required range.

• To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating.

• To avoid damage caused by improper operation, do not open the chassis even if the switch is

powered off.

• When replacing power modules, wear an ESD wrist strap to avoid damaging the units.

Examining the installation site

The S5150-EI switches must be used indoors. You can mount your switch in a rack or on a

workbench, but make sure:

• Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and outlet vents for ventilation.

• The rack or workbench 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 device from entering the device.

• The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.

• The rack or workbench 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.

2

Temperature/humidity

Maintain temperature and humidity in the equipment room as described in "Appendix A Chassis

views and technical specifications."

• Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical

property change of materials, and metal corrosion.

• Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and bring problems

including loose captive 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 of different switch models, 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

Substance Concentration limit (particles/m³)

Dust

≤ 3 x 10

(no visible dust on the tabletop over three days)

NOTE:

Dust diameter ≥ 5 μm

The equipment room must also meet strict limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion

and premature aging of components, as shown in Tabl e 2 .

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, perform the following tasks:

• If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE)

to filter interference from the power grid.

3

• 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.

Laser safety

WARNING!

The switch is Class 1 laser device. Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The

laser light emitted from the optical fiber might hurt your eyes.

Installation tools

• Flat-blade screwdriver

• Phillips screwdriver

• ESD wrist strap

All these installation tools are user supplied.

4

Installing the switch

CAUTION:

Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mounting screw on the chassis cover intact, and if you want to open

the chassis, contact H3C for permission. Otherwise, H3C shall not be liable for any consequence.
