Installation Tasks
Rack-Mount
Installation
You will need an optional rack-mount kit, T10 Torx tool, and #2
Phillips screwdriver for this procedure.
To install and configure the switch in a Fabricenter cabinet or a
customer-supplied equipment rack, use the following steps:
1. Locate the rack-mount position as directed by the customer. The
switch is 1.75 inches, or 1U high.
2. Ensure that all FRUs are installed as ordered.
3. Open the rack-mount kit and inspect the contents. Refer to the
enclosed bill of materials and verify all parts are delivered.
4. Install the switch and optional slide tray (holds two switches) in
the equipment cabinet. Refer to McDATA Sphereon 4400 Switch
Rack-Mount Kit Installation Instructions (958-000480) for guidance.
5. Connect power supply adapter cords to threaded output jacks at
the rear of the chassis (second external power supply is optional).
Twist the cord clockwise to lock and secure the connection.
6. Connect AC power cords to connectors on each external power
supply and to separate (for redundancy) rack power strips
connected to a facility power source that provides single-phase,
100 to 240 VAC current.
When the first power cord is connected, the switch powers on
and performs POSTs. During POSTs:
a. The green power (PWR) LED on the front panel illuminates.
b. The amber system error (ERR) LED on the front panel blinks
momentarily while the switch is tested.
c. The green LED associated with the Ethernet port blinks
momentarily while the port is tested.
d. LEDs associated with Fibre Channel ports blink momentarily
while the ports are tested.
After successful POST completion, the PWR LED remains
illuminated and all other front panel LEDs extinguish.
If a POST error or other malfunction occurs, go to MAP 0000: Start
MAP to isolate the problem.
7. Perform one of the following:
