Safety Information Using AX3800S, AX3600S, and AX2400S series switches safely This guide provides important information for ensuring safe use of AX3800S, AX3600S, and AX2400S series switches. Please read this manual completely before using the Switches Keep this manual handy after reading it, so that it is available for later reference. Operate the Switch according to the instructions and procedures provided in this manual. Heed all warnings and cautions for the Switch in this guide.
Safety Information If anything seems wrong, immediately turn off the power. If smoke or an unusual smell is emanating from the Switch, or if liquid is spilled into the Switch or a foreign object falls into the Switch, immediately turn off Switch power as described below. Continuing operation could result in fire or electric shock.
Safety Information with a liquid, such as a vase or a flower pot, on the Switch. Liquid or metallic objects falling into the Switch could result in a fire or electric shock.
Safety Information Use the Switch only with the indicated power source. Use the Switch only with the indicated voltage of power. A fire or an electric shock might be caused. Ensure that the capacity for incoming current to the distribution board is greater than the operating current of the circuit breaker. Ensure that the capacity for incoming current to the distribution board is greater than the operating current of the circuit breaker.
Safety Information Cut the DC power cable jackets to the specified length. To use the DC power cable on the redundant power model, cut the cable jackets (on the Switch side) to 8 to 10 mm. Too short a sheath length might result in poor contact or a disconnected cable. On the contrary, too long a sheath length might expose the core wire and cause an electric shock. Do not use the Switch with the protection cap removed. Keep the protective cap in place except when attaching a cable.
Safety Information Do not use an air duster near a flame. Safety-6 When cleaning the optical connectors, do not use an air duster that contains flammable gas near a flame. Doing so could result in a fire.
Safety Information Do not place the Switch in a place where it is unstable. If placing the Switch on a desk, lay it on its side on a workbench capable of withstanding the weight of the Switch. If, for example, you place the Switch on a shaky table or a tilted surface, the Switch might fall and possibly injure someone. When installing the Switch in a rack, make sure the Switch in the rack is stably positioned.
Safety Information When moving a Switch Before moving a Switch, you must turn it off and unplug all cables. Failure to do so might cause the Switch or cable to become deformed, or might damage the Switch, resulting in fire or electric shock. If you must stack multiple Switches during transport, use appropriate packaging. Failure to do so might cause the Switch to become deformed or might damage the Switch, resulting in fire or electric shock. Handle the power cable carefully.
Safety Information When turning off the power, stop the supply of all power to the Switch. As for the AC power and AC (PoE) models with backup power supplied from the EPU, turning off the power switch of the switch does not shut off the power to the switch. Turn off the switches of the switch and the power supply modules to shut off the power supplies. As for the redundant power model with the redundant power supply units, turning off either power switch does not shut off the power to the Switch.
Safety Information Do not install the Switch in a dusty or humid location. Do not install the Switch in a dusty or humid location. Doing so could result in fire or electric shock. Condensation might form on the surfaces and the inside of the Switch if it is moved from a cold location to a warm location. Using the Switch in this condition could result in fire or electric shock.
Safety Information Attach a blank panel to a slot in which a power supply module for an EPU is not installed. Be sure to attach a blank panel to any slots for which a power supply module for an EPU is not installed. If you use the Switch without attaching the blank panel, you might be injured by a moving part. In addition, if foreign objects fall into the Switch, the Switch might no longer work properly. Remove dust on and around the Switch regularly.
Safety Information Do not place a Switch in a high-temperature location. Do not place a Switch in direct sunlight or near a heater or other heat-generating apparatus. Doing so could adversely affect parts of the Switch. Do not use a TV or a radio near a Switch. Placing a Switch near a TV or a radio could affect both devices. If you hear noise on the TV or radio, do the following: - Place the Switch as far away as possible from the TV or radio. - Adjust the orientation of the TV or radio antenna.
Safety Information When the power supply unit or the fan unit is replaced with the Switch turned on, keep the time limit. When performing any of the following replacements with the switch turned on, do not leave the switch for more than three minutes without a power supply unit or a fan unit. Otherwise, a failure might occur due to increasing temperatures inside the Switch.
Safety Information Handle memory cards and dummy memory cards carefully. When installing a memory card and a dummy memory card, do not force the card. When removing a memory card, do not forcibly pull out the card if it is locked. Doing so might damage the connector of the memory card slot. When moving the Switch, remove memory cards and dummy memory cards. If a card is subjected to excessive force when the switch is moved, the connector of the memory card slot might be damaged.
Safety Information Make sure that you use an appropriate combination of transceivers and switches. The switches below support SFP-FX and SFP-FX (T). Use them only with the indicated switches. Otherwise, the switch might fail. - AX3640S-24SW (target ports 5 to 24) - AX3640S-24S2XW (target ports 5 to 24) - AX3650S-20S6XW (target ports 1 to 20) The switches below support SFP-SX2 and SFP-SX2 (T). Use them only with the indicated switches. Otherwise, the switch might fail.
Safety Information Use care when handling an optical connector cleaner. Always use a dedicated optical connector cleaner. If you use another type of cleaner, the ferrule tip might become dirty. Before cleaning, make sure that the tip of the optical connector cleaner is clean and free of defects, such as lint, dirt, or other foreign substances. Using a cleaner with a defective tip might damage the ferrule tip. Do not apply excessive pressure when cleaning. Doing so might damage the ferrule tip.

A. Cleaning Optical Connectors A. Cleaning Optical Connectors A.1 Cleaning optical connectors of transceivers Follow the procedures below to clean the optical connector of the transceiver. A laser beam, which is colorless and invisible, is used. Do not directly look into the optical transmitter/receiver part. NOTE The figures below show the way to clean the optical connector of SFPs. The same procedures are applicable to SFP+ and XFP transceivers.
A. Cleaning Optical Connectors [Step 2] Check the tip of the stick-type optical connector cleaner for torn surface fabric, stains and foreign substances. Figure A-2 Check of the Optical Connector Cleaner (1) Stick-type optical connector cleaner (2) Part to check CAUTION CAUTION Check the tip of the optical connector cleaner for torn surface fabric, stains and foreign substances before cleaning the connector. The faulty tip might damage the ferrule end.
A. Cleaning Optical Connectors NOTE See the instructions of the optical connector cleaner before use. A.2 Cleaning optical fiber cables Follow the procedures below to clean the connector of the optical fiber cable. A laser beam, which is colorless and invisible, is used. Do not directly look into the optical transmitter/receiver part. [Step 1] Use the air duster to remove foreign particles and dust on the tip of the connector.
A. Cleaning Optical Connectors [Step 2] Use a reel-type optical connector cleaner to clear any adhered dirt from the ferrule end. Figure A-5 Cleaning the Ferrule End CAUTION CAUTION NOTE Make sure to use the dedicated optical connector cleaner. Otherwise, the ferrule end might be damaged. Do not apply excessive pressure for cleaning. Otherwise, the ferrule end may be damaged. See the instructions of the optical connector cleaner before use.
