Dell S5296F-ON EMC PowerSwitch S5200F-ON Series Setup Guide - Page 7

Switch ground Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch. Use the S5200F-ON Series switch in a CBN. NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cable provides a ground path, Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire. You can order an AC ground lug separately. NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to attach a dedicated ground wire. The ground lug kit ships in a plastic bag placed with the other accessories inside the shipping box. The ground lug bracket screws ship attached to the switch. Before you install the DC switch in the dual-tray, attach the ground lug and bracket to the switch using the included screws and then attach the DC ground wire to the ground lug. The DC-powered switch ships with the DC ground lug, bracket, and screws. Fans and airflow Fan installation is completed as part of the Factory Install based on the stock keeping unit (SKU) type. The S5200F-ON Series switch has SKUs that support the following configurations: • AC PSU with fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU-normal • AC PSU with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O-reverse • DC fan unit with airflow from the I/O to the PSU-normal • DC fan unit with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O-reverse Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site's ventilation. Use a single type of airflow fan in your switch. Do not mix reverse and normal airflows in a single switch. For proper ventilation, position the switch in an equipment rack or cabinet with a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the exhaust vents. When you install two S5200F-ON switches near each other, to permit proper airflow, position the two switches at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart. The fan speed varies based on internal temperature monitoring. The fan speed varies based on internal temperature monitoring. The switch never intentionally turns off the fans. Power To connect the switch to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cable. An AC power cable is included with the switch. When installing AC or DC switches, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, where applicable. The switch is powered-up when the power cable is connected between the switch and the power source. CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply slots. The switch has multiple power cables. Before servicing, ensure that all power cables are disconnected. CAUTION: On the AC switch, use the power supply cable as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located/installed near the equipment and is easily accessible. NOTE: Module power is software controlled. You do not see module LEDs when the switch powers up in the open network install environment (ONIE). Storing components If you do not install your S5200F-ON Series switch and components immediately, properly store the switch and all components following these guidelines: • Storage location temperature must remain constant. The storage range is from -40° to 70°C (-40° to 158°F). • Store on a dry surface or floor, away from direct sunlight, heat, and air conditioning ducts. • Store in a dust-free environment. NOTE: ESD damage can occur when components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the switch and its accessories. After you remove the original packaging, place the S5200F-ON Series switch and its components on an anti-static surface. Site preparations 7
