Installation Options

There are two ways in which the OmniSwitch 6600 series switches can be installed:

•Tabletop installation

•Rack-mount installation

Installing the Switch on a Tabletop or Bench

OmniSwitch 6600 series switches can be installed freestanding as tabletop units. Place your switch in a stable, flat, static-free surface.

Note. OmniSwitch 6600 series switches must be placed “right side up.” Never attempt to operate a switch positioned on its side.

To install the switch as a tabletop unit, follow the steps below:

1Position the chassis on the table or bench where it is to be installed.

2Be sure that adequate clearance has been provided for chassis airflow and access to the front, back, and sides of the switch. For recommended clearances, refer to page 2-13. Also, be sure that you have placed the chassis within reach of all required AC power sources.

3If you are placing multiple switches in a stacked configuration, carefully stack the remaining switches, one on top or the other. Up to eight switches may be stacked to form a single virtual chassis. Be sure to maintain adequate clearance at the front, rear, left, and right side of all switches. Also, be sure that you have placed all switches in the stack within reach of required AC power sources.

Rack-Mounting the Switch

Refer to the important guidelines below before installing the OmniSwitch chassis in a rack.

•It is recommended that two people install the switch in the rack—one person to hold the chassis and position it in the rack, and a second person to secure the chassis to the rack using attachment screws (not supplied).

•Alcatel provides two rack-mount flanges with each OmniSwitch 6600 series switch. These flanges support standard 19-inch rack mount installations. These flanges must be attached to the chassis before the switch can be rack mounted.

Note. If you are installing the switch in a 23-inch wide rack, Alcatel offers optional 23-inch rack-mount- ing hardware. For more information, contact your Alcatel representative.

•Alcatel does not provide rack-mount screws. Use the screws supplied by the rack vendor.

•To prevent a rack from becoming top heavy, it is recommended that you install heavier equipment at the bottom of the rack whenever possible.

•If you are installing the switch in a relay rack, be sure to install and secure the rack per the rack manu- facturer’s specifications.

•Review page 2-13for important chassis airflow and access recommendations before installing.
