Installing the Fan 
Assembly

To install the fan:

1

Wear an antistatic wrist strap.

2

Remove the fan frame from the pack.

3

Hold the ejector levers on the fan frame with both hands and push them outward.

4

Align the fan with the guides in the chassis and slide it gently into the slot. 

5

Push the fan until its positioning pin touches the hole in the chassis.

6

Push the ejector levers inward.

7

Push the handle bar pin into the hole in the chassis.

WARNING:

 To avoid injury, do not touch any naked wire, terminal, or any other 

part of the product labelled 

Dangerous Voltage

. Always wear the antistatic wrist 

strap when installing the fan.

Installing Cables

This section describes how to connect console and AUX cables to the Switch 
7750.

Connecting the Console 

Cable

The console cable is an 8-core shielded cable. One end of the cable has a crimped 
RJ-45 connector, which is plugged into the console port of the switch. The other 
end has both a DB-9-hole connector and a DB-25-hole connector for connection 
to a 9-hole or 25-hole serial port at the configuration terminal. 

See “Console Cable” on page 67 for cable illustration and pinout details.

To connect a terminal or PC to the Switch 7750 using the console cable: 

1

Plug the DB-9 or DB-25 female plug of the console cable to the serial port of the 
PC or the 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.

Connecting the AUX 

Cable

An AUX cable is used to connect the Switch 7750 to a modem in a remote dial-up 
configuration.

The AUX cable is an 8-core shielded cable. One end of the cable is an RS-232 
RJ-45 connector, which is used to plug into the switch at the console port. The 
other end has both a DB-9-pin connector and a DB-25 pin for connection to a 
9-hole or 25-hole serial port on the virtual modem. 

See “AUX Cable” on page 67 for cable illustration and pinout details.

To connect the AUX cable:

1

Plug the RJ-45 end of the AUX cable into the switch console port.

2

Connect the DB-25 or DB-9 end of the AUX cable to the serial port of the virtual 
modem.
