5. Connect Power
Install one or two AC or DC power modules in the switch.
The switch supports up to two PSUs that must have the
same matching airflow direction as the installed fan tray.
Connect an external AC or DC power source to the modules.

Caution:
Use a UL/IEC/EN 60950-1 certified power supply
to connect to a DC converter, and a #14 AWG (for 36–75 VDC
PSU) or #10 AWG (for 12 VDC PSU) wire to connect to a DC
PSU.
6. Verify Switch Operation
Verify basic switch operation by checking the system LEDs.
When operating normally, the PSU1/PSU2, Diag, and Fan
LEDs should all be on green.

7. Perform Initial System Boot
If the network operating system (NOS) installer is located on
a network server, first connect the RJ-45 Management
(Mgmt) port to the network using 100-ohm Category 5, 5e
or better twisted-pair cable. (Not required if the NOS
installer is located on attached storage.)
Boot the switch. Wait for the ONIE software to locate and
execute the NOS installer, and then wait for the installer to
load the NOS software image.
Subsequent switch boots will bypass ONIE and directly run
the NOS software.
Note:
For switches with ONIE software pre-loaded, refer to
the network operating system (NOS) installer and NOS
documentation for details on software options and set up
for ONIE.
8. Connect Network Cables
For RJ-45 ports, use 100-ohm Category 6, 6a, or 7 twisted-
pair cable for 10GBASE-T connections, or Category 5e or
better cable for 100/1000BASE-T connections.
Connect DAC cables to the QSFP+ slots. Or, first install
QSFP+ transceivers and then connect fiber optic cabling to
the transceiver ports.
The following transceivers are supported:
◆
40GBASE-CR4
◆
40GBASE-SR4
Note:
As connections are made, check the port status LEDs
to be sure the links are valid.
9. View the Product Label
The switch product label is located below RJ-45 ports 7–12
on left side of the front panel. Pull the label out to view the
product information.
