Installation

⚠️ Warning: For a safe and reliable installation, use only the accessories and screws provided with the device. Use of other accessories and screws could result in damage to the unit. Any damages incurred by using unapproved accessories are not covered by the warranty.

❗ Caution: The switch includes plug-in power supply (PSU) and fan tray modules that are installed into its chassis. Make sure all installed modules have a matching airflow direction (front-to-back or back-to-front).

ℹ️ Note: The switch has the Open Network Install Environment (ONIE) software installer preloaded on the switch, but no switch software image. Information about compatible switch software can be found at www.edge-core.com.

ℹ️ Note: The switch drawings in this document are for illustration only and may not match your particular switch model.

1. Mount the Switch

❗ Caution: This device must be installed in a telecommunications room or a server room where only qualified personnel have access.

1. Attach the Brackets: Use the included screws to attach the front- and rear-post brackets.
2. Mount the Switch: Mount the switch in the rack and secure it with rack screws.
3. Lock the Rear-Post Brackets: Use the included screws to lock the position of the rear-post brackets.

2. Connect Power

Install one or two AC PSUs and connect them to an AC power source.

ℹ️ Note: When using only one AC PSU to power a fully loaded system, be sure to use a high-voltage source (220-240 VAC).

3. Make Network Connections

400G QSFP-DD Ports and 10G SFP+ Ports

Install transceivers and then connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports. Alternatively, connect DAC or AOC cables directly to the slots.

4. Connect Timing Ports

1PPS IN Port

Use a coax cable to connect the 1-pulse-per-second (1PPS) input port to another synchronized device.

5. Make Management Connections

10/100/1000M RJ-45 Management Port

Connect Cat. 5e or better twisted-pair cable.

Micro-USB and RJ-45 Console Ports

Connect the included console cable and then configure the serial connection: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control. (The Micro-USB console connection takes priority over the RJ-45 console connection.)
