Installing the Switch Installing the Switch Installation Procedures Installation Procedures These steps summarize your switch installation. The rest of this chapter provides details on these steps. 1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-5). Make sure the physical environment into which you will be installing the switch is properly prepared, including having the correct network cabling ready to connect to the switch and having an appropriate location for the switch. See page 2-4 for some installation precautions. 2. Install mini-GBICs (optional-page 2-7). The switch has two slots for installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you install the switch, it may be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Mini-GBICs can be hot swapped- they can be installed or removed while the switch is powered on. 3. Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-9). Plug the switch into a power source and observe that the LEDs on the switch's front panel indicate correct switch operation. 4. Mount the switch (page 2-11). The Series 2600 Switches can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, on a wall, or on a horizontal surface. The Series 2600-PWR Switches may be mounted in racks and cabinets or on a horizontal surface. The Switch 2626-PWR and the 2650-PWR must not be wall mounted. The Switch 2600-8-PWR can be wall mounted. See page 2-18 for wall mounting instructions. 5. Connect power to the switch (page 2-19). Once the switch is mounted, plug it into the main power source. 6. Connect the network devices (page 2-20). Using the appropriate network cables, connect the network devices to the switch ports. 7. Connect a 600 RPS/EPS or 610 EPS, (optional-page 2-21). You may wish to use a 600 RPS/EPS or 610 EPS with your Series 2600-PWR Switch. To do so you must connect these external power supplies using the RPS or EPS cables supplied with these devices. 8. Connect a console to the switch (optional-page 2-30). You may wish to modify the switch's configuration, for example, to configure an IP address so it can be managed using a web browser, from an SNMP network management station, or through a Telnet session. Configuration changes can be made by using the included console cable to connect a PC to the switch's console port. At this point, your switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you need more detailed information on any of these installation steps. 2-3

Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
These steps summarize your switch installation. The rest of this chapter
provides details on these steps.
1.
Prepare the installation site (
page 2-5
).
Make sure the physical envi-
ronment into which you will be installing the switch is properly prepared,
including having the correct network cabling ready to connect to the
switch and having an appropriate location for the switch. See
page 2-4
for
some installation precautions.
2.
Install mini-GBICs (optional—
page 2-7
).
The switch has two slots for
installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you install the switch, it may
be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Mini-GBICs can be hot swapped—
they can be installed or removed while the switch is powered on.
3.
Verify the switch passes self test (
page 2-9
).
Plug the switch into a
power source and observe that the LEDs on the switch’s front panel
indicate correct switch operation.
4.
Mount the switch (
page 2-11
).
The Series 2600 Switches can be mounted
in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, on a wall, or on a
horizontal surface. The Series 2600-PWR Switches may be mounted in
racks and cabinets or on a horizontal surface. The Switch 2626-PWR and
the 2650-PWR must not be wall mounted. The Switch 2600-8-PWR can be
wall mounted. See
page 2-18
for wall mounting instructions.
5.
Connect power to the switch (
page 2-19
).
Once the switch is mounted,
plug it into the main power source.
6.
Connect the network devices (
page 2-20
).
Using the appropriate
network cables, connect the network devices to the switch ports.
7.
Connect a 600 RPS/EPS or 610 EPS, (optional
—
page 2-21
).
You may
wish to use a 600 RPS/EPS or 610 EPS with your Series 2600-PWR Switch.
To do so you must connect these external power supplies using the RPS
or EPS cables supplied with these devices.
8.
Connect a console to the switch (optional
—
page 2-30
).
You may wish
to modify the switch’s configuration, for example, to configure an IP
address so it can be managed using a web browser, from an SNMP network
management station, or through a Telnet session. Configuration changes
can be made by using the included console cable to connect a PC to the
switch’s console port.
At this point, your switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you
need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.
