Installing and removing fan trays
CAUTION:
To ensure good ventilation of the switch, follow these guidelines to install and remove fan trays:
•
The switch comes with the fan tray slots empty. Before powering on the switch, make sure all fan
tray slots have fan trays installed and the fan trays are the same model.
•
Make sure all slots have a module or filler panel installed when the switch is operating.
•
If multiple fan trays fail on an operating switch, do not remove the fan trays at the same time.
Replace the fan trays one after another and finish replacing a fan tray within 3 minutes.
The supported fan trays vary by switch model.
Installing a fan tray
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the fan tray or the connectors in the chassis, insert the fan tray gently. If you
encounter a hard resistance while inserting the fan tray, pull out the fan tray and insert it again.
Multiple fan trays are available for the switch. Select fan trays for the switch as needed. For the
available fan trays and their specifications, see "
."
The installation procedure is the same for the fan trays. The following procedure installs an
LSWM1FANSA fan tray in an S6890-54HF switch.
To install a fan tray:
1.
Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2.
Unpack the fan tray and verify that the fan tray model is correct.
3.
Orient the fan tray with the "TOP" mark at the top. Grasping the handle of the fan tray with one
hand and supporting the fan tray bottom with the other, slide the fan tray into the slot along the
guide rails until the fan tray is fully seated in the slot and has a firm contact with the backplane.
