IMPORTANT:
Order transceivers and cables separately. The SN6000B and the SN3000B
Switches support only transceivers and cables labeled B-series SFP+, or B-series cable. For more
information on supported transceivers, see
Table 2 (page 11)
and the HP SAN Compatibility Tool
at
http://hpsancompat.com/
.
Installing the switch in a rack using the Rack Mount Kit
Use the SN6000B and the SN3000B Switch Rack Mount Kits to install the switch in an HP 10000
Series Rack.
CAUTION:
Install the Rack Mount Kits as described in this section so that when the switch is
installed, the port side faces the rear of the rack. This configuration optimizes performance in the
following ways:
•
Provides better airflow by using a plenum. A plenum is an air duct that attaches to the switch
rails, enabling the switch to draw cooler air from outside the rack rather than drawing in
heated air from within the rack.
•
Provides room for a gradual bend in the fiber optic cables because the port side of the switch
is set back from the edge of the rack.
Use only the screws provided in the Rack Mount Kit. Using other screws can cause damage to
internal components.
Installation safety guidelines
Verify that the rack and the area around the rack meet the following requirements:
•
Plan a rack space that is a 1U high and provides clearance for the switch power cords to run
between the rack sides and the rails at the front of the 19-inch EIA rack.
•
Ground all equipment in the rack through a reliable branch circuit connection and maintain
ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a
power strip.
•
Ensure that airflow and temperature requirements are met on an ongoing basis.
•
Secure the rack to ensure stability in case of unexpected movement.
