1 About this guide This guide provides site preparation recommendations, step-by-step procedures for rack mounting and desk mounting, inserting modules, and connecting to a power source. CAUTION: To avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, wear grounding wrist straps when handling this equipment. WARNING: Only trained and qualified personnel can install this equipment. Read this guide before you install and power up this equipment. This equipment contains two power cords.
WARNING: The Warning icon signals information about hardware handling that could result in injury. WARNING: The ESD Warning icon requires that you take electrostatic precautions when handling the device.
2 Site preparations The S4100–ON Series is suitable for installation as part of a common bond network (CBN). You can install the system in: • Network telecommunication facilities • Data centers • Other locations where the National Electric Code (NEC) applies For more information about the S4100–ON Series specifications, see Specifications. NOTE: Install the S4100–ON Series switch into a rack or cabinet before installing any optional components.
The cabinet must meet minimum size requirements. Airflow must be in accordance with the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standard. Ensure that there is a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) between the intake and exhaust vents and the cabinet wall. Rack mounting When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is grounded. Ground the equipment rack to the same ground point the power service in your area uses. The ground path must be permanent. System ground Dell recommends grounding your system.
Storing components If you do not install your S4100–ON Series swtich and components immediately, Dell recommends properly storing the switch and all optional components following these guidelines: • Storage location temperature must remain constant. The storage range is from -40° to 149°F (-40° to 65°C). • 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.
3 S4100–ON Series installation To install the S4100–ON Series, Dell recommends completing the installation procedures in the order presented in this section. Always handle the S4100–ON Series switch and its components with care. Avoid dropping the system or any field replaceable units (FRUs). NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S4100–ON Series switch and its components.
Unpack 1 Place the container on a clean, flat surface and cut all straps securing the container. 2 Open the container or remove the container top. 3 Carefully remove the switch from the container and place it on a secure and clean surface. 4 Remove all packing material. 5 Inspect the product and accessories for damage. Rack or cabinet installation You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310- E-compliant rack.
Figure 2. Separate rails 1U Tool-less mount installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. 1 Face the ReadyRails flange ears facing outward. Place one rail between the left and right vertical posts. Align and seat the back flange rail pegs in the back vertical post flange. The center extractions show how the pegs appear in both the square and nonthreaded round holes.
Figure 3. 1U tool-less installation 2 Align and seat the front flange pegs in the holes on the front side of the vertical post. NOTE: Be sure that the rails click into place and are secure. 3 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. 4 To remove each rail, pull on the latch release button on each flange ear and unseat each rail. Two-post flush-mount installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly.
Figure 4. Two-post flush-mount installation 2 Attach one rail to the front post flange with two user-supplied screws, item 2. 3 Slide the plunger bracket forward against the vertical post and secure the plunger bracket to the post flange with two user-supplied screws, see item 3. 4 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. Two-post center-mount installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly.
Figure 5. Two-post center-mount installation 2 Slide the back bracket towards the post. Secure it to the post flange with two user-supplied screws, items 2 and 3. 3 Repeat this procedure for the second rail. Four-post threaded installation NOTE: For more installation instructions, see the installation labels attached to the rail assembly. 1 Remove the latch castings from each end of the ReadyRails assemblies. To remove the two screws each latch casting, use a Torx driver.
Figure 6. Four-post threaded installation 2 For each rail, attach the front and back flanges to the post flanges with two user-supplied screws at each end. S4100-ON Series system installation You can mount the system in the 1U front-rack two-post, flush, or center configuration or a four-post configuration. The following is an example of a front-rack configuration: For the 1U two-post configurations, slide the system into the rails in the same manner as the four-post configurations.
Figure 7. Switch rail attachment 2 After you install both rails, line them up on the ReadyRails. Slide the switch in until it is flush with the front of rack. About three inches before you fully insert your system, the rail locking feature engages to keep the switch from inadvertently sliding out and falling.
Figure 8. Front rack installation NOTE: Do not the use the mounted Ready-Rails as a shelf or a workplace. 3 Tighten the two thumb screws and rack screws. To remove the chassis from the rack or cabinet, press in the two side-release bars on the chassis at the same time and slide the chassis forward. Optics installation For a list of supported optics, see the S4100–ON Series data sheet at www.dell.com/support or contact your Dell representative. CAUTION: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled.
Optics removal Remove an optic by pushing the tab on the optic and sliding the optic from the port. When removing optics with direct attach cables (DACs) from the port, pull the release tab firmly and steadily. Before pulling the release tab, you may need to gently push the optic into the port to ensure that it is seated properly. Do not jerk or tug repeatedly on the tab.
