NOTE:

    The switch has the Open Network 

Installer Environment (ONIE) software pre-
loaded, but no switch software image pre-loaded.

CAUTION:

supply and fan tray modules that are installed into 
its chassis. All installed modules must have a 
matching airflow direction. That is, all modules 
must have a front-to-back (F2B) airflow direction, 
or all modules must have a back-to-front (B2F) 
airflow direction. The airflow direction of fan trays 
is indicated by text printed on the modules.

CAUTION:

    Installing the switch in a rack
