A Safety Information
Important Safety Information
WARNING!
Read the following safety information thoroughly before installing your Extreme Networks switch. Failure
to follow this safety information can lead to personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Installation, maintenance, and removal of a switch, chassis, or its components must be done by qualified
service personnel only.
Qualified service personnel have had appropriate technical training and experience that is necessary to
be aware of the hazards to which they are exposed when performing a task and of measures to
minimize the danger to themselves or other people.
You should consider the following before unpacking your equipment:
Install the equipment in a secured, enclosed, and restricted-access area, ensuring that only qualified
service personnel have access to the equipment.
Install the equipment only in a temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor area that is free of
airborne materials that can conduct electricity. Too much humidity can cause a fire. Too little
humidity can produce electrical shock and fire.
When you handle the equipment on modular switches, put on the ESD wrist strap to reduce the risk
of electronic damage to the equipment. Leave the ESD strap permanently attached to the chassis so
that it is always available when you need to handle ESD-sensitive components.
Power
The Summit series switch has either one or two power inputs depending on the switch model.
Disconnect power before removing the back panel of a switch.
Ground the unit. Do not connect the power supply unit to an AC outlet without a ground
connection.
Connect the unit to a grounded outlet to comply with European safety standards.
Place the unit near the socket outlet to be easily accessible. You can only remove power from the unit
by disconnecting the power cable from the outlet.
