Installation

Site Preparation

This section describes what you need to do to prepare your site before installing the switch.

Hardware

Verify that you have the hardware components appropriate for your method of installation:

•Console terminal: Ensure that you have a console terminal available. The console terminal must be a VT100-compatible terminal or a PC running VT100 terminal-emulation software. (Although the BayStack 350 switch is operational as soon as you install it, you can customize the operational parameters to suit your needs.)

•Rack mounting: You need a single-unit rack space for installing the BayStack 350 switch in a standard 19-inch equipment rack.

•Surface mounting:

—Tabletop: The table or shelf must be level and able to support at least

10 pounds, plus the weight of the suspended port cables. If you intend to stack additional BayStack 350 switches, one on top of another, remember to include this weight in your calculations when selecting a suitable table or shelf.

Caution: When this device is installed in a stack on a shelf or tabletop, the accumulated weight of the port cables increases with the height of the shelf or tabletop.

—Wall-mount screws: Mounting brackets are provided for securing the BayStack 350 switch onto a tabletop, shelf, or wall. However, because wall compositions vary at different sites, Bay Networks recommends that an experienced maintenance person choose the appropriate wall mounting hardware to safely mount your BayStack 350 switch.

•Network cabling: Ensure that all network cables are in place and that they have been tested and tagged before you begin the installation.
