  • Page 2: About This Guide

    1 About This Guide Thank you for purchasing a Huawei S series switch. This guide describes how to install S2700, S3700, S5700, and S6700 series switches. It also explains how to log in to your switch for the first time.
  • Page 3: Site Environment

    Ensure that the temperature and humidity at the installation site meet the switch operation requirements. For the specific requirements, see the Hardware Description for your switch on the Huawei support website. Ethernet cables used outdoors must be buried underground or routed through steel pipes to protect the switch from lightening.
  • Page 4 For a wall-mounted switch (S5720-16X-PWH-LI-AC needs to be installed with the port side facing up), take water-proofing and dust-proofing measures to protect the switch from damage caused by water and dust. Ensure that there are no flammable or explosive materials near the switch and no obstructions within 100 mm around the switch.
  • Page 5 Scenario 4: Cabinet/Rack Mounting Before You Start S series Ethernet switches can be installed in a 19-inch standard cabinet/rack. Cabinets purchased from other vendors must have enough space for equipment installation. If the distance between front and rear mounting rails is not within the required range, install guide rails or a tray in the cabinet/rack to support the chassis.
