Installing the BayStack 450 Switch

4.Insert two screws, appropriate for your 19-inch rack, into each of the mounting brackets and tighten.

5.After the switch is secured in the rack, see the next section, “ Attaching Devices to the BayStack 450 Switch.”

Attaching Devices to the BayStack 450 Switch

This section describes how to attach devices to the BayStack 450 switch ports and how to connect a console terminal to the switch Console/Comm port. You can use the console terminal to observe the power on self-test results and set up the switch, if required, as described later in this chapter.

The BayStack 450 switch has an Uplink/Expansion slot that allows you to attach optional media dependent adapters (MDAs). The MDAs support a range of media types (see Appendix C, “Media Dependent Adapters” for more information about MDA types available from Nortel Networks). Refer to the documentation that came with your specific MDA for information about its cabling and LED indications.

BayStack 450 switches that are configured with BayStack 450 software version V1.1.0 or later provide Fail-Safe stackability when you install the optional BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module to your switches. Installation instructions are provided with the cascade module. If you need to upgrade your BayStack 450 switches, refer to the upgrade instructions provided in Installing the BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module. You must upgrade the switch before installing the BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module.

Depending on your network configuration requirements, connect the port cables, the console port, and any optional MDA port cables as described in the following sections. After attaching the devices to the BayStack 450 switch, see “ Connecting Power” on page 2-12 to connect the AC power cord and power up the switch.

You can connect the BayStack 450 switch to any equipment that conforms to the IEEE 802.3 standard, such as the following devices:

•Ethernet networking devices

•Individual workstations or servers

•Other switches, bridges, or hubs
