  • Page 13: Attaching Mounting Brackets And Chassis Rails To The Switch

    Attaching mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch IMPORTANT: • The S9855-64D switch uses 2U bottom support rails for rack mounting. You are not required to attach chassis rails to it. • M4 screws are used to attach mounting brackets and chassis rails to the switch. As a best practice, use a torque of 12 kgf-cm (1.18 Nm) to fasten M4 screws.

Connect the grounding cable to a grounding point before installing the switch in the rack. The S9855-48CD8D and S9855-24B8D switches each provide two grounding points: primary grounding point (with a grounding sign) and auxiliary grounding point on the left side panel.

  • Page 23: Installing/Removing Fan Trays

    Replace the fan trays one after another and finish replacing a fan tray within 3 minutes. Select fan trays compatible with the switch. For the optional fan trays and their specifications, see H3C S9825 & S9855 Switch Series Hardware Information and Specifications. Installing a fan tray CAUTION: To prevent damage to the fan tray or the connectors on the backplane, insert the fan tray gently.

    PSU2, PSU3, and PSU4 each installed with a filler panel. The PSR1600C-12A-B power supply is available for the switch. For the specifications of the PSR1600C-12A-B power supply, see H3C S9825 & S9855 Switch Series Hardware Information and Specifications.
  • Page 26: Installing A Power Supply

    Installing a power supply The power supply installation procedure is the same for the switches. The S9855-48CD8D switch is used as an example in the following figures. To install a power supply: Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. Remove the filler panel, if any, from the target power supply slot, as shown in Figure2-30.
  • Page 27: Removing A Power Supply

    Figure2-31 Installing a power supply Removing a power supply CAUTION: • When the S9855-48CD8D or S9855-48CD8D switch has two power supplies operating in 1+1 redundancy mode, removing one power supply does not affect the operation of the switch. When the switch has only one power supply present, removing the power supply causes power down of the switch.

    Figure2-32 Removing a power supply (1) Use the thumb to press the latch towards the handle (2) Pull the power supply out Connecting power cords WARNING! • Make sure each power cord has a separate circuit breaker. • Before you connect a power cord, make sure the circuit breaker for the power cord is switched off.
  • Page 29: Verifying The Installation

    To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning strikes, route interface cables only indoors. IMPORTANT: For information about how to protect the switch from lightning strikes, see H3C Network Devices Lightning Protection Guide. 2-28...
  • Page 30: Accessing The Switch For The First Time

    Accessing the switch for the first time Connecting the switch to a configuration terminal The switch came with a serial console cable. You can use the serial console cable to connect the serial console port on the switch to a configuration terminal. In Figure3-1, the switch is connected to a configuration terminal (PC as an example) from the serial console port.
  • Page 31: Setting Terminal Parameters

    Figure3-2 Serial console cable Table3-1 Console port signaling and pinout RJ-45 Signal DB-9 Signal To connect the serial console port on the switch to a terminal (for example, a PC): Plug the DB-9 female connector of the serial console cable to the serial port on the PC. Connect the RJ-45 connector to the serial console port on the switch.
  • Page 32 After the startup completes, you can access the CLI to configure the switch. For more information about the configuration commands and CLI, see H3C S9825 & S9855 Switch Series Configuration Guides and H3C S9825 & S9855 Switch Series Command References.
  • Page 33: Maintenance And Troubleshooting

    Power supply failure You can determine whether a power supply is faulty by observing the status LED on the power supply. For more information about the status LED on a power supply, see H3C PSR1600C-12A-B Power Module User Manual. Symptom The status LED on a power supply is not steady green.
  • Page 34: Garbled Output

    Verify that the power system is operating correctly. Verify that the console cable is connected correctly.
