Part Number: 53-1005580-01
Preparing for Installation
Facility Requirements
Facility Requirements
To install and operate the device successfully, ensure compliance with the following electrical, environmental, location, and cable
management requirements.
Electrical Considerations
For successful installation and operation of the device, ensure that the following electrical requirements are met:
•
The primary outlet is correctly wired, protected by a circuit breaker, and grounded in accordance with local electrical codes.
•
The supply circuit, line fusing, and wire size are adequate, as specified by the electrical rating on the device nameplate.
•
The power supply standards are met.
Environmental Considerations
For successful installation and operation of the device, ensure that the following environmental requirements are met:
•
Because the Ruckus ICX 7850 switch can be ordered with fans that move air either front to back or back to front, be sure to
orient your switch with the airflow pattern of any other devices in the rack. All equipment in the rack should force air in the same
direction to avoid intake of exhaust air.
•
Some combinations of intake and exhaust airflows may not be compatible with your environment. Consult your fan assembly
and power supply module FRU kits to determine the correct configuration.
•
The ambient air temperature does not exceed 45°C (113°F).
Location Considerations
Before installing the device, plan its location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. Devices can be mounted in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat horizontal surface.
The site should meet the following requirements:
•
Maintain the operating environment as specified in
“Environmental Considerations”
•
Allow a minimum of 7.62 cm (3 in.) of space between the front and the back of the device and walls or other obstructions for
proper airflow.
•
Allow at least 7.62 cm (3 in.) of space at the front and back of the device for the twisted-pair, fiber-optic, and power cabling.
•
Allow access space for installing, cabling, and maintaining the devices.
•
Ensure the status LEDs are clearly visible.
DANGER
Laser radiation. Do not view directly with optical instruments. Class 1M laser products.
DANGER
Use only optical transceivers that are qualified by Ruckus and comply with the FDA Class 1 radiation performance
requirements defined in 21 CFR Subchapter I, and with IEC 60825 and EN60825. Optical products that do not comply
with these standards might emit light that is hazardous to the eyes.
