Rack Mounting A Switch - Fujitsu s3-0801 User Manual

Getting started
Before installing your switch, refer to the following lists to ensure you have all
items that shipped with the switch, as well as other items necessary for proper
installation.
Supplied with the switch
• Power cord
• Rack mounting brackets
• s3-0801/1601 Switch Quick Installation Guide
Additional items needed
• One IQ module per target server. SMB Adapter USB-VGA cables can also be
used.
• One UTP patch cable per IQ module (4-pair UTP, up to 30 meters)
• UTP patch cable(s) for network connectivity (4-pair UTP, up to 30 meters)
Setting up your network
The s3-0801/1601 KVM switching system uses IP addresses to uniquely identify
the switch and the target devices. The switch family supports both Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and static IP addressing. Fujitsu recommends that
IP addresses be reserved for each switch and that they remain static while the
switches are connected to the network.

Rack Mounting a Switch

A rack mounting kit is supplied with each switch. You may either place the switch
on the rack shelf or mount the switch directly into an Electronic Industries Alliance
(EIA) standard rack.
Switches are rack mounted in a 1U configuration. The s3-0801/1601 switch
family does not support a 0U configuration.
Rack mounting safety considerations
• Rack Loading: Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or
rack failure, causing damage to equipment and possible personal injury.
Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount
components beginning at the bottom of the rack, then work to the top. Do not
exceed your rack load rating.
