Rack-mounting the switch by using front mounting brackets Attaching the front mounting brackets to the switch Place the narrow flange of the front mounting bracket against the chassis side panel. Align the mounting bracket installation holes with the screw holes in the chassis. Fasten the M4 screws to secure the mounting bracket to the switch.
If a standard 19-inch rack is not available, you can place your switch with upside up on a workbench. Grounding the switch WARNING! Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection, ESD, and EMI protection. For information about lightning protection, see H3C Network Devices Lightning Protection Guide. 2-11...
To protect against the following types of problems, use a grounding cable to connect the device to the earthing facility at the installation site: • Bodily injury from electric shocks. • Device and power and data line damages. • Electrical fires, lightning strokes, electromagnetic coupling interferences, ESD damages. You can ground the switch in one of the following ways, depending on the grounding conditions available at the installation site: •...
c. Use the needle-nose pliers to bend the bare wire. d. Hook the grounding cable to the post on the grounding strip, and use the hex nut to secure the cable to the post. Figure2-9 Connecting the grounding cable to a grounding strip (1) Grounding post (2) Grounding strip (3) Grounding cable...
10Ω. For locations with high soil resistivity, sprinkle some resistance reducer to reduce soil resistivity or replace soil around the grounding strip with soil with lower resistance. For information about resistance measurement, see H3C Network Devices Lightning Protection Guide. Connecting the power cord WARNING! •...
• If a power line is routed from outdoors, verify that a surge protected power strip is used for the switch. NOTE: For information about lightning protection for the switch, see H3C Lightning Protection Guide. 2-15...

Click the following link, or copy it to the address bar on your browser and download the USB-to-RJ45 console driver. http://www.h3c.com/en/home/USB_to_RJ45_Console/ View the TXT file Read me in the Windows folder to check whether the Windows system of the configuration terminal supports the driver.
Figure3-4 Finishing the driver installation Connect the standard USB connector of the cable to the USB port of the configuration terminal. Connect the RJ-45 connector of the cable to the console port of the switch. Setting terminal parameters To configure and manage the switch through the console port, you must run a terminal emulator program, such as TeraTermPro, on your configuration terminal.

Power on the switch. During the startup process, you can access Boot ROM menus to perform tasks such as software upgrade and file management. The Boot ROM interface and menu options differ with software versions. For more information about Boot ROM menu options, see the software-matching release notes for the device.
Verify that the operating temperature of the switch is in the acceptable range, and the power supply has good ventilation. Overtemperature can cause the power supply to stop working and enter protection mode. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. Configuration terminal issues No display on the configuration terminal Symptom The configuration terminal does not have display when the switch is powered on.
The configuration terminal displays garbled text. Solution To resolve the issue: Verify that the following settings are configured for the terminal: Baud rate—9600. Data bits—8. Parity—None. Stop bits—1. Flow control—None. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. 4-23...
