Site Environment

• Keep the enquipments indoors. If it is in rainy season or in humid environment, dehumidification measures must be taken.
• Ensure there is no water on the storage floor and no leakage to the packing box of the equipment.
• Avoid automatic fire fighting facilities, heating system and other places where leakage may occur.

Installing

Before installation, make sure that you have the followings:

• M6 Screws&Nuts
• Flat Screwdriver
• Cross Screwdriver

Installing a Card

1. Hold the card handle and align the left and right edges of the card with the internal slide rails.
2. Push it in slowly along the internal slide rails until a “click” is heard, which indicates that the latch is locked.

Rack Mounting

1. Install the slide rails on the rack.
2. Push the NX N40 series managed chassis into the rack along the slide rails.
3. Use M6 screws&nuts to secure the chassis.

NOTE:

1. The chassis to be mounted in the rack should be empty.
2. Avoid collision or touching the fiber guide unit when carrying the chassis.
3. The mounted chassis should be 130 mm away from the rack door before it.

Grounding the NX N40 Series Managed Chassis

1. Secure the grounding lug to the grounding point on the back panel of the chassis with screws and nut.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a proper earth ground point, such as the rack with the NX N40 series.

Connecting Power Cord

1. Plug AC power cord into the power port on the back panel of the power card.
2. Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source.

NOTE:

1. Avoid the hybrid use of power cords from different vendors.
2. Before connecting the chassis power cables, ensure that the external power supply is shut down. Never install the power cables while they are electrified.
3. Make sure that the AC input power is cut off during the operation. Attach labels to the switches that will be used.

Connecting the Control Port

1. Connect one end of the cable to the console port on the back panel.
2. Connect the other end to a network port on the switch.

Configuring the NX N40 Series Platform

1. Step 1: Install the netmanager software and refer to the Configuration Guide for detailed steps.
2. Step 2: Enter the URL (Built-in IP address+8082/#/login. e.g. http://10.41.87.205:8082/#/login) on the web page to log in to the net manager software (Account: admin; Password: admin).
3. Step 3: Click login, you are now ready to configure NX N40 Series Platform.

Troubleshooting

Card LEDs Working Abnormally

1. Check the power cable connections at the NX N40 Series managed chassis and the power source.
2. Make sure that all cables are used correctly and comply with the power specifications.
3. Make sure that service cards are in the right position in the NX N40 Series managed chassis.

Accessing the Web-based Configuration Page Unsuccessfully

1. Try another port on the CCU card and make sure the Ethernet cable is suitable and works properly.
2. Power off the the NX N40 Series managed chassis and wait for a while, then power it on again.
3. Make sure the built-in IP address is correctly configured.
4. If you still cannot access the configuration page, please reinitialize the CCU server to its factory defaults.

Service Card Cannot Be Added

1. Enter through CMD.
2. Ping service card IP to check whether it can communicate.
3. Check whether normal communication can be made between service card and the CCU card.
4. Change another service card.
