Quick start guide

NOTE:

This quick start guide provides basic instructions for installing an S12500 routing switch. For more

detailed installation procedures, see

H3C S12500 Routing Switch Series Installation Guide

Preparing for installation

ESD prevention

To prevent the electronic components from being damaged by the electrostatic discharge (ESD), always

wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap when you touch the switch, cards, or ICs, and make sure that the wrist

strap is well grounded.

Figure 1 Attaching an ESD-preventive wrist strap

Examining the installation site

The H3C S12500 Routing Switch Series can only be used indoors. To make sure that the switch works

properly and to prolong its service lifetime, the installation site must meet the load-bearing, temperature,

humidity, cleanness, EMI, grounding, power module, and space requirements. For more information, see

Installing cage nuts

1. Align the mounting bracket with the left rack post, making sure that the bottom edge and the slide

rail are level. Mark the positions of the cage nuts on the rack post according to the installation

holes on the mounting bracket (each installation hole on the mounting bracket corresponds to one

cage nut).

2. Insert one edge of a cage nut into the hole.

3. Compress the other edge of the cage nut to push the cage nut fully into the hole.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to install cage nuts to all the marked positions on the right rack post.

rack until the mounting brackets on the switch touch the front rack posts.

2. Fix the mounting brackets to the cage nuts on the rack posts with mounting screws.

Grounding the switch

1. Remove the two grounding screws from the switch chassis.

2. Use the grounding screws to attach one end of the grounding cable to the chassis.

3. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding strip of the rack in the same way.

Figure 8 Connecting the grounding cable

Installing the power modules

NOTE:

H3C recommends that you install at least three power modules to one power frame.

Installing a DC power module

1. Rotate the power frame cover up with both hands.

2. Pull the clip at the bottom left corner of the power module to the left to open the power module

panel.

3. Insert the power module slowly into the slot until it is firmly seated in the slot.

4. Close the panel of the power module, press the clip to lock the power module in position, and

close the power frame cover.

Figure 9 Installing a power module

Installing an AC power module

To install an AC power module, install a PEM first, and then install the AC power module.

To install a PEM:

1. Loosen the screws on the filler panel of the PEM slot with a Phillips screwdriver to remove the filler

panel.

2. Insert a PEM slowly along the slide rails until it touches the backplane connector.

3. Use the M3 screws supplied with the PEM to fix the PEM to the switch chassis, and fasten the

screws with a Phillips screwdriver.
