Preparing for installation

Safety recommendations

To avoid possible bodily injury and equipment damage, read the safety recommendations in this chapter

carefully before installing an S3100V2 switch. The recommendations do not cover every possible

hazardous condition.

General safety recommendations

• Keep the chassis clean and dust-free. Do not clean the switch with wet cloth or liquid.

• Do not place the switch on a moist area, and avoid liquid surrounding the switch.

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

• Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk. The switch might be damaged severely in case

of a fall.

• Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walk areas.

• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry (for example, necklace), or any other objects that could get

caught in the chassis when you install and maintain the switch.

• Do not open the chassis to avoid electrical shocks when the switch is operating or just when the

switch is powered off.

Safety with electricity

• Clear the work area of possible hazards, such as ungrounded power extension cables, missing

safety grounds, and wet floors.

• Make sure that the operating voltage is as required.

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation. Shut the power off at once in

case accident occurs.

• Unplug all the external cables (including power cords) before moving the chassis.

• Always check that the power has been disconnected.

ESD prevention

To prevent the electronic components from being damaged by the electrostatic discharge (ESD), you

should not only take ESD measures where the switch is located, but also take the following precautions:

• Make sure the switch is well grounded. For how to ground the switch, see “Grounding the switch.”

• Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap when installing hot swappable modules.

Perform the following steps to use the ESD-preventive wrist strap:

Step1 Wear the wrist strap on your wrist.

Step2 Lock the wrist strap tight around your wrist to keep good contact with the skin.

Step3 Attach the ESD-preventive wrist strap to a post on the rack or ground it by using other methods.

Safety with laser

The S3100V2 Switch Series is a line of class 1 laser products. When a transceiver module on an

S3100V2 switch is operating, do not stare into the optical port because the laser light emitted from the

optical fiber may hurt your eyes.

Examining the installation site

The S3100V2 Switch Series must be used indoors. To ensure normal operation and long service life of

your switch, install it in an environment that meets the requirements described in the following

subsections.

Temperature requirements

To ensure the normal operation of the switch, make sure that the room temperature meets the

requirements described in Table 2.

Table 2 Temperature r

equirements

Temperature Range

Operating temperature 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)

Storage temperature –40°C to +70°C (–40°F to +158°F)

CAUTION:

If condensation appears on the switch when you move it to a high-temperature environment, dry the switch

before powering it on to avoid short circuits.

Humidity requirements

Maintain appropriate humidity in your equipment room, as described in Table 3.

10

Table 3 Humidity requirements

Humidity Range

Operating humidity (noncondensing) 10% to 95%

Storage humidity (noncondensing) 5% to 95%

Lasting high relative humidity tends to cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical property

change of materials, and corrosion of metal parts. Lasting low relative humidity is likely to result in loose

screws due to washer contraction, and even electrostatic discharge (ESD), which causes the circuits to

fail.

Cleanness requirements

Dust is a hazard to the operating safety of your switch. Dust buildup on the chassis may 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.

Substance Concentration limit (particles/cu m)

Dust particles

≤ 3 x 10

4

(No visible dust on desk in three days)

NOTE:

Dust particle diameter ≥ 5 μm

In addition, the equipment room should meet strict limits on salts, acids and sulfides to eliminate

corrosion and premature aging of components, as shown in Table 5.

EMI requirements

All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the switch and application

system, adversely affect the switch in a conduction pattern of capacitance coupling, inductance coupling,

electromagnetic wave radiation, or common impedance (including grounding system) coupling. To

prevent EMI, perform the following steps:

• Take measures against interference from the power grid.

• Do not use the switch together with the grounding equipment or light-prevention equipment of

power equipment, and keep the switch far away from them.

11

• Keep the switch far away from high-power radio launchers, radars, and equipment with high

frequency or high current.

• Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.

• Route interface cables only indoors to prevent signal ports from getting damaged by over-voltage

or over-current caused by lightning strikes.

Grounding requirements

Using a good grounding system to protect your switch against lightning shocks, interferences, and ESD

is essential to the operating reliability of your switch. Make sure that the resistance between the chassis

and ground is less than 1.5 ohm. For more information about grounding the S3100V2 Switch Series, see

“Grounding the switch.”

Cooling requirements

The cooling system of the S3100V2 Switch Series varies by the switch model:

• S3100V2-TP-SI/S3100V2-TP-EI (fanless): There are openings on the left, right, and rear of the switch

for natural heat dissipation.

• S3100V2-TP-PWR-EI (built-in fans): Fans blow air from the left to the right of the chassis for heat

dissipation, as shown in Figure 15.

switch

(1) Air intake (2) Air exhaust

For adequate heat dissipation, plan the installation site according to the airflow of your switch, and

adhere to the following requirements:

• Leave a clearance of at least 10 cm (3.94 in) around the air intake and exhaust vents.

• Consider the heat dissipation of the installation site when determining air-conditioning

requirements to ensure that cool air can enter the switch.

• Make sure the hot air generated by equipment at the bottom of the rack is not drawn in the intake

of the equipment above.

• The installation site has a good cooling system.

Space requirements

For adequate ventilation and ease of maintenance, adhere to the following requirements:

• The clearance between the rack and walls or other devices is at least 1 m (3.28 ft).

• The headroom in the equipment room is no less than 3 m (9.84 ft).
