Safety and Regulatory Information
Note:
The switch ships with two power supply units (PSUs)
and five fan trays installed.
Note:
The switch has the Open Network Installer
Environment (ONIE) software pre-loaded on the switch, but
no switch software image.
Caution:
The switch includes plug-in power supply (PSU)
and fan tray modules that are installed into its chassis. All
rear-installed modules must have a matching airflow
direction. That is, if the installed power modules have a
front-to-back (F2B) airflow direction, all the installed fan
tray modules must also have a F2B airflow direction.
The airflow direction of PSU and fan tray modules is
indicated by the color the release lever or handle on the
modules. Blue indicates an intake (cool) airflow, and red
indicates an exhaust (warm) airflow.

For each rack-rail assemby, pull the slider and slide-rail
bracket out to its full extended position.
Push the white release latch on the inside of the slider to
