3.1.3 Power On
The switch supports a 100-240-VAC, 50-60-Hz power supply. The power supply will automatically convert the local AC power source to DC
power. You can connect a device or module to the switch when it’s powered on or off. When the power is on, all port LED indicators will
light up immediately and then go off. (The power LED remains on.) To reset the switch, simply power it off, then on again.
3.1.4 Firmware Loading
After resetting, the bootloader will load the firmware into the memory. (It will take about 30 seconds.) Then all LEDs on the switch will flash
once and automatically perform a self-test. The switch is now in the ready state.
3.2 Installing the Switch in a 19-Inch Wiring Rack or Cabinet
CAUTION: Allow enough space for the cooling fan at both sides of the switch to provide ventilation. Wear a grounding device for
electrostatic discharge.
1.
Using two screws (included), attach the rackmount ears to the switch’s left and right sides. See Figure 3-2.
2.
Line up the mounting holes on the switch assembly (the switch with rackmount ears installed) with the mounting holes on a 19"
wiring closet rack. Install two screws (included) to hold the switch in place in the rack.
