Trained service personnel have read all related installation manuals, have the technical training and
experience necessary to be aware of the hazards to which they are exposed in performing a task, and
are aware of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other persons.
Warning
Extreme Networks AC power supplies do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. To
disconnect the power to an Extreme Networks AC power supply, remove the wall plug from
the electrical outlet. Make sure that this connection is easily accessible.
Warning
When the power supply is outside the chassis (not installed), do not plug the power supply
into an electrical outlet. Plugging an uninstalled AC power supply into an electrical outlet
exposes you to a hazardous energy and is a potential fire hazard.
Caution
Before installing or removing any components of the system, or before carrying out any
maintenance procedures, read the safety information provided in
on page 45. Not following these precautions can result in equipment damage or
shock.
Caution
Be sure that proper ESD controls are in use before switch maintenance is performed. This
includes but is not limited to wrist straps that are grounded to the switch chassis and earth
grounds.
Note
See "Technical Specifications" for additional information regarding regulatory compliance
certifications.
What You Will Need for the Installation
Ensure that you have followed the guidance in
on page 11, and ensure that you have
the appropriate people and tools on hand.
Installing Extreme Networks switches is easiest when there are two people to maneuver the switch and
attach mounting hardware.
Provide enough space in front of and behind the switch so that you can service it easily. Allow a
minimum of 122 cm (48 in) in front of the rack and 76 cm (30 in) behind the rack.
If your switch has internal power supplies, make sure they have the same airflow direction as the fans in
the switch.
Check the
Quick Reference Guide
for your switch model to see what hardware is provided in the switch
packaging. MicoVSP switches do not come with rack-mounting brackets or screws.
You need the following additional tools and equipment. These are not provided with your switch:
•
Screwdriver for securing the rack mounting screws.
