Chapter 2 Switch Installation

Preparing for Installation

The switch is shipped with these items:

•Cisco ME 4924-10GE Ethernet Switch Getting Started Guide

•Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco ME 4924-10GE Ethernet Switch

•AC power supply (installed) or a DC power supply (installed with ground lug installed)

•AC power cord (AC-powered switches)

•One fan tray

•One grounding lug

•One ESD strap

•One RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable

•One RJ-45-to-RJ-45 crossover cable

•Mounting kit containing:

–Two 19-inch rack-mounting brackets

–Four Phillips flat-head screws for attaching the brackets to the switch

–Four Phillips machine screws for attaching the brackets to a rack

–One cable guide and one black Phillips machine screw for attaching the cable guide to one of the mounting brackets

Verifying Switch Operation

Before installing the switch in a rack, on a wall, or on a table or shelf, you should power the switch and verify that the switch passes POST. These sections describe the steps required to connect a PC to the switch console port and to power on the switch:

•Connecting a PC or Terminal to the Console Port, page 2-4

•Powering On the Switch and Running POST, page 2-5

Connecting a PC or Terminal to the Console Port

To connect a PC to the console port, use the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable. To connect the switch console port to a terminal, you need to provide a RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter from Cisco. For console port and adapter pinout information, see the “Cable and Adapter Specifications” section on page B-3.

The terminal-emulation software—frequently a PC application such as Hyperterminal or Procomm Plus—makes communication between the switch and your PC or terminal possible.

Follow these steps to connect the PC or terminal to the switch:

Step 1 Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these console port default characteristics:

•9600 baud

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•No parity
