2 INSTALLING THE SWITCH Installation Considerations and Safety Guidelines WARNING A fully populated HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 weighs approximately 250 pounds and requires a minimum of two people and mechanical lift to install it. Before installing, verify that the additional weight of the chassis does not exceed the cabinet's weight limits or unbalance the cabinet, including when some of the cards or power supplies are partially extended out of the chassis. CAUTION To ensure adequate cooling, install the chassis with the port side facing the aisle into which exhaust air is released (usually called the service aisle). This prevents the fans from pulling in heated exhaust air. The following steps are required to ensure correct installation and operation: • Provide a space that is 14U high, 29 inches deep, and 19 inches wide. Also provide an additional 1U for cable management. 9

INSTALLING THE SWITCH
Installation Considerations and Safety Guidelines
WARNING
A fully populated HP StorageWorks Core Switch 2/64 weighs
approximately 250 pounds and requires a minimum of two people and
mechanical lift to install it.
Before installing, verify that the additional weight of the chassis does not
exceed the cabinet’s weight limits or unbalance the cabinet, including when
some of the cards or power supplies are partially extended out of the
chassis.
CAUTION
To ensure adequate cooling, install the chassis with the port side
facing the aisle into which exhaust air is released (usually called the service
aisle). This prevents the fans from pulling in heated exhaust air.
The following steps are required to ensure correct installation and
operation:
•
Provide a space that is 14U high, 29 inches deep, and 19 inches wide.
Also provide an additional 1U for cable management.
