Installing the Series 8200zl Switch

Installation Procedures

Installation Location

Before installing the switch, plan its location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment:

In the front of the switch, allow at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic cabling.

In the back of the switch, allow at least 10.2 cm (4 inches) of space for the power cord and cooling.

On the sides of the switch, leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for cooling.

2. Mount the Switch

The Series 8200zl Switch is a large heavy chassis, therefore ProCurve Networking recommends mounting the switch before populating it with modules or power supplies.

A base system weighs approximately 50 pounds, and an unloaded chassis weighs approximately 44 pounds. To avoid personal injury, plan on having at least two people available to help move the unit into place onto the rack. TWO OR MORE PEOPLE ARE REQUIRED WHEN MOUNTING THIS SWITCH.

The Series 8200zl Switch can be mounted in these ways:

in a rack or cabinet

on a horizontal surface

Rack or Cabinet Mounting

The Series 8200zl Switch is designed to be mounted in any EIA-standard

19-inch telco rack or in an equipment cabinet such as a server cabinet. If you are installing the switch in an equipment cabinet, read the following “Equip- ment Cabinet Note.”

If you are installing the switch in an equipment cabinet, in place of the

12-24 screws supplied with the switch, use the clips and screws that came with the cabinet. Plan which four holes you will be using in the cabinet and install all four clips and partially install the two bottom screws, as described in step 2 on the previous page, before proceeding to step 3.
