Page 13: Rack Mounting
Z9432F-ON switch installation. NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cable provides a ground path, Dell Technologies recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire. NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to attach a dedicated ground wire. The ground lug ships inside the DC PSU shipping box. -
Page 14: Switch Power
Switch power To connect the switch to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cable. An AC power cable is included with each PSU. When installing AC or DC switches, follow the code requirements appropriate for your country or region. For example, in the U.S., follow National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70 and in Europe follow IEC60364. -
Page 15: Chapter 4: Z9432F-On Switch Installation
For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cable provides a ground path, Dell Technologies recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire. Using a dedicated ground wire reduces equipment communication interference, offers ESD protection, and prevents possible equipment damage. -
Page 16: Rack Or Cabinet Hardware Installation Procedure
Rack or cabinet hardware installation procedure You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310 E-compliant rack. These installation procedures are for four-post rack installation only. The rails system includes separately packaged rail assemblies. Safety, Environmental, WARNING: This document is a condensed reference. - Page 17 3. Attach the inner rail to the switch. Line up the inner rail slot with the T-stud on the switch. Push the inner rail back until it clicks into place. 4. Confirm the rack mounting hole type and choose the correct components--EIA 9.5 mm (.354 in) square hole, EIA 7.1 mm (.279 in) round hole, or threaded hole.
- Page 18 For EIA 7.1 mm (.279 in) round hold racks, press the latch to change from square pegs to round pegs. For a threaded mounting hole, change the die-cast parts on the outer rail to the fitting plates shipped with the rails. Change the die-cast parts on both the front and rear side of the outer rail.
