Switch Overview

Installing the Switch

1. Prepare the Installation Site

The cabling infrastructure must meet the requirements for the Switch 2510 ports. See the ProCurve Series 2510 Installation Guide on the ProCurve Web site for more information, www.procurve.com.

Installation Space Requirements

Switch

Clearance Requirements

Orientation

 

 

 

Front

At least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic

 

cabling.

 

 

Back

At least 3.8 cm (1 1/2 inches) of space for the power cord and switch cooling.

 

 

Sides

At least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for cooling, except if the switch is installed in an

 

open EIA/TIA rack.

 

 

 

2. Verify the Switch Passes Self Test

 

Before mounting the switch, verify it is working properly by plugging it into a

 

power source and confirming that it passes self test.

 

 

N o t e

The Series 2510 Switch devices do not have a power switch. They are powered

 

on when the power cord is connected to the switch and to a power source.

 

For safety, the power outlet should be located near the switch installation.

 

The switch automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100-127 and 200-240

 

volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.

 

If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with

 

the switch, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety

 

agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark

 

is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch.
