Cables

Unless you specifically order them, the cables required for your network configuration are not included in the chassis accessory package. If you do not have the proper cables, contact your network administrator.

Mounting hardware for the 8310, 8306 chassis

To install the Ethernet Routing Switch 8310 or 8306 chassis in an equipment rack, you require a Phillips screwdriver and an equipment rack that meets the following specifications:

•heavy-duty steel construction

•Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard hole-spacing

•width of 19 inches (in.) (48.26 centimeters [cm]) and depth of 24 in. (60.96 cm)

For information about chassis weight including components, see “Procedure job aid: Chassis weight including components” (page 36).

Successful installation verification

In a normal power-up sequence, the LEDs light as follows:

1.When power is applied to the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series, the green LED on each power supply and fan tray turns on, and the Online LED for each module lights amber.

2.Each module initiates a self-test, during which the port and module LEDs display various patterns to indicate the progress of the self-test.

3.On successful completion of the self-test (within two or three minutes after power is applied for a fully loaded chassis), the module Online LED transitions from amber to green.

If the LEDs on the modules light in this sequence, your installation is successful. Contact your network administrator to verify that the Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 Series is now connected to the network.

If the LEDs do not light in this sequence, contact your local Nortel

Technical Solutions Center.
