Rack Mount The Switch; Rack Mounting Safety Considerations - Dell Networking S6000 Guía De Introducción

Step Task (continued)
Plug in the appropriate cord (AC 3 prong or DC wiring) from the switch PSU to
4
the external power source (either an AC wall outlet or a DC rack bus bar).
If you have a redundant PSU (a second PSU), repeat steps 1 through 4 above
5
using the second PSU slot on the S6000 switch.
NOTE: The system powers up as soon as the cables are connected between the
power supply and the power source.

Rack Mount the Switch

You may either place the switch on the rack shelf or mount the switch directly
into a 19" wide, EIA-310-E-compliant rack (four-post, two-post, or threaded
methods). The Dell ReadyRails™ system is provided for 1U front-rack, and
two-post installations. The ReadyRails system includes two separately packaged
rail assemblies and two rails that are shipped attached to the sides of the switch.
WARNING: This is a condensed reference. Read the safety instructions in
your Safety, Environmental, and Regulatory information booklet before
you begin.
CAUTION:
NOTE: The illustrations in this document are not intended to represent a
specific switch.

Rack Mounting Safety Considerations

• Rack loading — Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf
or rack failure, causing damage to the equipment and possible personal
injury. Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount
the components beginning at the bottom of the rack, then work to the top.
Do not exceed your rack load rating.
• Power considerations — Connect only to the power source specified on the
unit. When you install multiple electrical components in a rack, ensure that
the total component power ratings do not exceed the circuit capabilities.
Overloaded power sources and extension cords present fire and shock
hazards.
Do not use the mounted Ready-Rails as a shelf or a workplace.
