Chapter 3 Installing the Switch

Install the Switch in a Rack

Step 3

After the brackets are attached to the switch, insert the switch into the 19-inch rack, and align the brackets in the rack.

Use either the 10-32 pan-head screws or the 12-24 pan-slotted screws, included in the bracket kit, to secure the switch in the rack.

We strongly recommend that you allow at least 1.75 inches (4 cm) of clearance above each switch in the rack.

Use the supplied black Phillips machine screw to attach the cable guide to either bracket. Use the cable guide to secure the cables. This prevents them from obscuring the switch front panel and other devices in the rack.

The cable guide is not used with the

 

Catalyst Express 520-8PC-K9

 

switch.

 

 

Step 4

Use the supplied switch power cable to connect the switch to an AC power source.

 

 

Step 5

Wait until the System LED blinks green and then turns solid green. A solid green SYSTEM

 

LED means that the switch is operating properly.

 

Troubleshooting:

 

If the SYSTEM LED does not blink green, does not turn solid green, or turns amber, contact

 

your Cisco representative or reseller. The switch failed the power-on self-test (POST).
