May 2007 OmniSwitch 9000 Series 1

OmniSwitch 9000 Series

The OmniSwitch 9000 Series switches address the needs of

converged networks: high availability, wire-speed

performance, high density GigE and 10GigE, and

dramatically improved network response time.

The OS9000 Series switches provide an easy and economical

way to upgrade or deploy a new Ethernet network. The large

number of ports makes the OmniSwitch 9000s suitable for

two- or three-tier network designs. This is possible because of

the high performance capability and density of GigE and

10GigE. The OS9000s also future-proofs the network with

native and full support of IPv4/IPv6 for addressing migration

from IPv4 to IPv6 or new IPv6 deployments.

Refer to the User Manual CD for additional hardware and

software OmniSwitch documentation.

Items Required

•Flat-blade screwdriver

•Serial cable

Site Preparation

Environmental Requirements

OmniSwitch 9000 Series switches have the following environ-

mental and airflow requirements:

•The installation site must maintain a temperature

between 0° and 45° Celsius (32° and 113° Fahrenheit) and

not exceed 95 percent maximum humidity (non-condens-

ing) at any time.

•Be sure to allow adequate room for proper air ventila-

tion at the front, back, and sides of the switch. Refer to

“Mounting the Switch” on page 7 for minimum clearance

requirements. No clearance is necessary at the top or

bottom of the chassis.

Electrical Requirements

OmniSwitch 9000 Series switches have the following general

electrical requirements:

•Each switch requires one grounded electrical outlet for

each power supply installed in the chassis. OmniSwitch

9000 Series switches offer both AC and DC power supply

support. Refer to the OmniSwitch 9000 Series Hardware

Users Guide for more information.

•For switches using AC power connections, each

supplied AC power cord is 2 meters (approximately 6.5

feet) long. Do not use extension cords.

Redundant AC Power. It is recommended that each AC

outlet resides on a separate circuit. With redundant AC, if

a single circuit fails, the switch’s remaining power

supplies (on separate circuits) are likely to remain unaf-

fected and can, therefore, continue operating.

•For switches using DC power, refer to the OmniSwitch

9000 Series Hardware Users Guide for more information,

including installation guidelines.

Unpacking and Installing the Switch

Unpacking the Chassis

To protect your switch components from electrostatic

discharge (ESD) and physical damage, read all unpacking

recommendations and instructions carefully before beginning.

Recommendations

•Unpack your OmniSwitch chassis as close as possible

to the location where it will be installed.

•Network Interface (NI) modules are packaged in sepa-

rate boxes. In order to reduce significantly the expo-

sure to electrostatic discharge (ESD) and physical

damage, do not unpack these boxes until the NI

modules are ready to be installed.

Instructions

1Begin by carefully cutting the tape along the seam

marked “OPEN HERE FIRST”.

2Lift the box’s top flaps. Remove the smaller boxes that

are enclosed and set them aside. These smaller boxes

contain the Ship Kit and the switch’s Chassis Manage-

ment Modules (CMMs).

3Next, completely remove the white plastic handle

inserts from the sides of the box. Removing these handles

allows the overpack to be removed.

4The overpack is the outer shell of the packaging. Lift

the overpack straight up until it slides free from the rest of

the packaging. This allows easy access to the chassis.

5Carefully remove the protective plastic from the switch

chassis.

6In order to reduce the weight of the chassis, it is

recommended that you remove all factory-installed power

supplies prior to lifting it from the packaging. Steps 7

through 12 below provide instructions for removing power

supplies.

Note. Steps 7 through 12 apply to power supplies that are

newly shipped in the switch chassis. They have no power

cords attached and the on/off switches are in the off (O)

position. For instructions on removing power supplies that

are currently operating in an existing switch, refer to the

OmniSwitch 9000 Series Hardware Users Guide.

7Loosen the two captive screws, located at the top and

bottom of the power supply’s front panel. If necessary, use

a flat-blade screwdriver to loosen the screws. Be sure that

both captive screws are completely disengaged from the

threaded holes in the chassis before continuing.

6 Installing the Hardware May 2007

Note. Alcatel-Lucent provides factory-installed blank

cover plates for empty module slots. Do not remove these

cover plates as they play an important role in chassis

ventilation.

8With one hand, grasp the handle at the front of the

power supply and slowly pull the power supply out of the

power supply bay. Do not pull the power supply

completely out of the bay with one hand.

9When the power supply is pulled out far enough (about

10”), place your other hand under the power supply casing

to support its weight.

10 Continue pulling the power supply out until it is

removed from the chassis.

11 Set the power supply aside on a clean, static-free

surface. You will need to re-install it later.

12 Remove all remaining power supplies by repeating

steps 7 through 11.

13 Continue to “Lifting the Chassis” below.
