Installation
This section describes how to install and configure for first-time use:
• The Intel
®
12000 Series switches in a network environment.
2.1
Planning the Installation
The 12000-series switches are designed for installation in standard 19-inch equipment
racks.
Racks should conform to conventional standards. Use the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI)/Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard ANSI/EIA-310-D-92
and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 297
Racks should meet the following mechanical recommendations:
• Four-post, 19" rack to facilitate easy maintenance
• Universal mounting rail hole pattern identified in IEC Standard 297
• Mounting holes flush with the rails to accommodate the chassis
Note:
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
Note:
Use a rack grounding kit and a ground conductor that is carried back to earth or to
another suitable building ground. Ground the equipment rack to earth ground.
Note:
Provide enough room to work on the equipment. Clear the work site of any
unnecessary materials. Make sure the equipment will have enough clearance for front
and rear access.

Cable Distances
When planning the location of the switches, consider the distance limitations for
signaling, EMI, and connector compatibility. It is recommended that the user does not
exceed specified transmission rate and distance limits.
2.1.1.2
Cable Guidelines
Note:
Building and electrical codes vary depending on the location. Comply with all code
specifications when planning the site and installing cable.
When running cable to the equipment, consider the following:
• Do not run cables where they can be stepped on or rolled over.
• Be sure cables are intact with no cuts, bends, or nicks.
• If the user is making a cable, ensure that the cable is properly crimped.
• Provide proper strain relief for IB cables.
• Support cables using a cable manager mounted above connectors to avoid
unnecessary weight on the cable bundles.
• Bundle cable using velcro straps to avoid injuring cables.
