3 Installing FRUs

	WARNING! Do not install the switch, modules, and cables when the switch has power.

 

There is no required order for installing FRUs. As a best practice, connect power cords after you complete FRU installations.

The chassis and module views in the figures in this section are for illustration only.

 

	IMPORTANT: Keep the chassis and the component packages for future use.

 

Attaching an ESD wrist strap

The switch provides an ESD wrist strap. To minimize ESD damage to electronic components, wear an ESD wrist strap and ensure that it is reliably grounded when installing modules.

To use an ESD wrist strap:

1.        Make sure the switch is reliably grounded. For how to ground your switch, see "Grounding the switch."

2.        Wear the wrist strap.

3.        Tighten the wrist strap to keep good skin contact. Make sure the resistance reading between your body and the ground is between 1 and 10 megohms.

4.        Insert the ESD wrist strap into the ESD socket on the switch chassis, or attach it to the grounding screw of the chassis with an alligator clip.

Figure 3-1 Attaching an ESD wrist strap (S7506X switch)

 

Installing cards

The installation procedures for MPUs and service modules are similar. Unless otherwise stated, MPUs and service modules are collectively referred to as "cards" in this document.

These cards are hot swappable.

 

IMPORTANT: ·      Before installing a card in the chassis, make sure the connectors on the card are not broken or blocked to avoid damaging the backplane. ·      To ensure good ventilation, install a filler panel in an empty slot. ·      Before you install a card that has a protection box, remove the protection box from the card as follows: a.    Loosen the captive screws that secure the card to the protection box. b.   Pull the ejector levers of the card outwards. c.    Pull the card out of the protection box.

 

To install a card:

1.        Wear an ESD wrist strap, and make sure it has good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.        Remove the filler panel (if any) from the slot to be used. Keep the filler panel secure for future use.

3.        Rotate out the ejector levers on the card.

4.        Hold the card by the front panel with one hand and support the card bottom with the other (do not touch its circuit). Slide the card steadily into the slot along the guide rails until you cannot push the card further.

5.        Rotate in the ejector levers on the card.

6.        Fasten the captive screws on the card.

Figure 3-2 Installing a card

 

Installing the power supply system

CAUTION: ·      In case of dual grid inputs, make sure the amplitude, phase, and frequency of the input voltage of the two grids are the same. ·      Provide a circuit breaker for each power module. ·      For good ventilation of the switch, make sure a filler panel is installed in each unused slot. ·      Do not install a power module adapter and a 3RU power module on the same switch. ·      Make sure the power configurations are the same on the two power module slots. To use power module adapters, make sure the two power module slots have the same power module adapter and power module configurations.

 

The switch uses 1+1 power module redundancy and supports dual grid inputs. The switch supports AC and DC power. For information about the power modules available for the switch, see "Power modules."

For a switch that uses high-capacity power modules, when the system power consumption is small, you can use the following configurations for power supply:

·          PSR650C-12A or PSR650C-12D power modules, or LSQM1PWRSPB power module adapters and PSR650-A/PSR650-D power modules (not recommended) when the switch consumes less than 650 W and does not use PoE.

·          LSQM1PWRSPB power module adapters and PSR650-A/PSR650-D/PSR1200-A/PSR1200-D power modules if you are to install more than two power modules in the switch.

To use a power module adapter, install the power module adapter in the chassis first, and then install power modules in the power module adapter.

Installing a power module adapter

1.        Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.        Unpack the power module adapter.

3.        Holding the adapter handle with one hand and supporting the adapter bottom with the other, slide the adapter all the way into the chassis along the guide rails. Make sure the adapter is firmly seated in the chassis and has good contact with the backplane connectors.

To avoid damaging the power module adapter and the backplane connectors, remove the adapter, realign it with the chassis, and insert it again in case of misalignment.

4.        Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws on the adapter to secure the adapter in the chassis.

If you cannot fasten the captive screws tightly, check the adapter installation.

Figure 3-3 Installing a power module adapter

 

Installing a power module

CAUTION: ·      Before installing a power module, make sure the switch on the power module is in the OFF position. ·      Do not install power modules of different models on the same switch. ·      Make sure the power modules to be installed can satisfy the power requirements of the switch. ·      To avoid damaging a power module, move the power module by supporting its bottom rather than holding its handle.

 

To install a power module:

1.        Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it has good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.        Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot.

Keep the filler panel secure for future use.

3.        Unpack the power module, and verify that the power module model is correct.

4.        Correctly orient the power module.

5.        Grasping the handle of the module with one hand and supporting the module bottom with the other, align the power module with the slot. Push the power module along the guide rails into the slot. Make sure the power module has a good contact with the backplane.

To avoid damaging the power module and the backplane connectors, remove the power module, realign it with the slot, and insert it again in case of misalignment.

6.        Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws on the power module to secure the power module in the chassis.

If the captive screws cannot be fastened tightly, do not fasten them forcibly. Check the power module installation.

(Optional) Setting up a PoE system

	CAUTION: If you do not use the PoE feature, verify that the PoE power switch on the power module is off.

 

Power over Ethernet (PoE) enables a power sourcing equipment (PSE) to supply power to powered devices (PDs) through power interfaces (PIs) over twisted pair cables. Commonly used PDs include IP telephones, APs, and web cameras.

The following PoE types are available:

·          Type 1—Power delivered by a single port: 0 to 15.4 W; voltage range: 44 V to 57 V; maximum current: 350 mA. This PoE type provides power to classes 0 to 3 PDs.

·          Type 2—Power delivered by a single port: 0 to 30 W, voltage range: 50 V to 57 V, maximum current: 600 mA. This PoE type provides power to classes 0 to 4 PDs.

Components for setting up a PoE system

To set up a PoE system for the switch, the following components are required:

·          A switch that supports PoE.

·          Interface modules that support PoE.

·          An external PoE power supply or PoE power modules

A switch that supports PoE

The S7503X-PoE, S7506X-PoE, and S7510X-PoE switches support PoE.

Interface modules that support PoE

Table 3-2 Interface modules supporting PoE

Card model	PI quantity	PoE type
LSQM4GV48SA0	48	·         Type 1 ·         Type 2
LSQM4GV48SC0	48	·         Type 1 ·         Type 2

 

To use an interface module in Table 3-2 for PoE power supply, make sure the power consumptions of the PDs do not exceed the PoE power capacity of the interface module. For the maximum PoE power capacity of the interface modules, see "Total power consumption."

External PoE power supply or PoE power modules

The PSR650-A, PSR650-D, PSR320-A, and PSR320-D power modules available for the S7503X-PoE switch do not support PoE. To provide PoE power, you must connect an external PoE power supply such as RPS800-A to the S7503X-PoE. The external PoE power supply must meet the following requirements:

·          Output voltage: –46 to –57 VDC (for the LSQM4GV48SC0 to provide PoE power in type 2 mode, make sure the voltage in the range of –52 to –57 VDC.)

·          Maximum output current: 40 A.

For the external PoE power supply connection procedure, see "Connecting an external PoE power supply."

The S7506X-PoE and S7510X-PoE switches support PoE power modules and can provide PoE power after PoE power modules are installed. Table 3-3 describes the power modules that support PoE.

Table 3-3 PoE power modules

Power module	Max. output power	Power cords provided	Power cord connection
PSR1400-D	6720 W	No	Connecting the power cord for a PSR1400-D/PSR1400-12D1/PSR2500-12D power module
PSR2800-ACV	·         1150 W (110 V) ·         1400 W (220 V)	Yes	Connecting power cords for a PSR2800-ACV power module
PSR6000-ACV	·         One-line PoE input: ¡  1200 W (110 V) ¡  1800 W (220 V) ·         Two-line PoE input: ¡  2400 W (110 V) ¡  3600 W (220 V) ·         Three-line PoE input: ¡  3600 W (110 V) ¡  5300 W (220 V)	Yes	Connecting power cords for a PSR6000-ACV power module

 

NOTE: ·      When the switch uses a PSR1400-D to supply PoE power, you can monitor the operating status of the external power supply through the PoE power monitoring port. The PoE power monitoring port is an RS-485 compliant port. You can select an RS-485 compliant connection method according to the monitoring port type. When you use a 48 VDC power source, you do not need to monitor the operating status of the external power supply. ·      When the switch uses a PSR6000-ACV to supply PoE power, make sure the input voltage for the system power input, PoE 1, PoE 2, and PoE 3 is the same. It can be either 110 VAC or 220 VAC.

 

Connecting an external PoE power supply

	CAUTION: ·      To avoid damage to the switch, make sure you connect the negative ends of the power cords to negative terminals and positive ends to positive terminals. ·      To ensure steady operation of the switch, make sure the cross section of the cable is not less than 8.4 mm2 (0.01 in2) and the power cord can carry 50 A current.

 

This section uses the RPS800-A as an example. As a best practice, order the power cord for the RPS800-A from H3C. For more information about RPS800-A, see RPS800-A User Manual.

To connect the RPS-800A to the switch:

1.        Remove the blank panel covering the PoE port of the switch.

2.        Remove the nuts and flat washers from the terminals.

3.        Connect the ring terminal (with a – sign) on the power cord to the NEG(–) terminal on the PoE power supply socket, install the nut and washer, and then fasten the screw.

4.        Connect the ring terminal (with a + sign) on the power cord to the RTN(+) terminal on the PoE power supply socket, install the flat washer, and then fasten the screw.

5.        Install the blank panel to the PoE port.

7.        Connect the female end of the AC power cord to the AC input port on the RPS800-A. Connect the male end of the AC power cord to the external power supply socket.

(Optional) Installing transceiver modules and network cables

	WARNING! Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into beams or view directly with optical instruments when the switch is operating.

 

Installing an SFP+/SFP/QSFP+/QSFP28/SFP28 module

	CAUTION: To avoid transceiver module or port damage, read this guide carefully before installing a transceiver module.

 

CAUTION: ·      Be careful not to touch the golden plating on a transceiver module during the installation process. ·      Before installing a transceiver module, remove the optical fibers, if any, from it. ·      Make sure the transceiver module is aligned correctly with the target port before pushing it into the port. ·      Do not remove the dust plugs from a transceiver module until you are ready to connect optical fibers to it.

 

Two types of QSFP+ transceiver modules are available. One type uses a metal pull latch and the other type uses a plastic pull latch. The installation procedure is the same for the two types of QSFP+ transceiver modules.

The installation procedure is similar for the SFP+, SFP, QSFP+, QSFP28, and SFP28 transceiver modules. The following procedure installs an SFP+ transceiver module.

To install an SFP+ transceiver module:

1.        Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.        Remove the dust plug from the target fiber port.

3.        Unpack the SFP+ module. It comes with the bail latch catching the knob on the top of the transceiver module.

4.        Grasp the transceiver module between your thumb and index finger. Align it with the fiber port and push it gently into the port until it snaps into place.

Transceiver modules and fiber ports have disorientation rejection designs. If you cannot insert a transceiver module easily into a port, the orientation might be wrong. Remove and reorient the transceiver module.

In case of limited space, you can gently push against the front face of the transceiver module instead of the two sides.

5.        Connect optical fibers to the transceiver module. For the connection procedure, see "Connecting your switch to the network through optical fibers."

Figure 3-21 Installing an SFP+ module

 

Connecting a network cable

CAUTION: When you connect a network cable, follow these restrictions and guidelines: ·      Make sure the two modular ends of a network cable are compatible with the ports into which they will be inserted. ·      Do not touch the golden plating on the two modular ends of a network cable. ·      To avoid network cable damage and signal loss, do not strain or tangle a network cable. ·      Before inserting a modular end of a network cable into a port, make sure the module aligns with the port correctly. ·      The bend radius of a network cable must be a minimum of 15 times the cable diameter.

 

To connect ports over a short distance, use network cables as follows:

·          SFP+ DAC cable—Connects two SFP+ ports over a short distance.

·          QSFP+ DAC cable—Connects two QSFP+ ports over a short distance.

·          QSFP28 DAC cable—Connects two QSFP28 ports over a short distance.

·          SFP28 DAC cable—Connects two SFP28 ports over a short distance.

·          QSFP+ to SFP+ DAC cable—Connects one QSFP+ port to four SFP+ ports over a short distance.

The network cables are hot swappable. The connection procedure is similar for these cables. The following procedure connects an SFP+ DAC cable.

To connect an SFP+ DAC cable:

1.        Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For more information, see "Attaching an ESD wrist strap."

2.        Remove the dust plug from the target fiber port.

3.        Unpack the cable.

4.        As shown in Figure 3-22, align the module end of the cable with the fiber port and push it gently into the port until you feel it snaps into place.

Transceiver modules and fiber ports have disorientation rejection structures. If you cannot insert a transceiver module easily into a port, remove and reorient the transceiver module.
