CAUTION:
nDo not ship any switch in a rack without checking for restrictions in the latest Installation and Getting Started
Guide. Otherwise, you may void the switch warranty.
nEnsure the power source circuits are properly grounded. Then connect the switch to the power source by
using the power cord supplied with the switch. For more information on power cords, see the Power cords
section.
nWhen installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the switch and be easily accessible in case the
switch must be powered off.
nEnsure that the power cord and network cables at the switch mounting location do not create a tripping
hazard.
nDo not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient temperature exceeds its
specification. See the environmental operating temperature information in the latest Installation and Getting
Started Guide.
nEnsure that the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To
determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere ratings of all devices installed on
the same circuit as the switch. Then compare the total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum
ampere ratings for a device are usually printed near the device AC power connectors.
nDo not block any ventilation openings on the front or rear of the switch.Ensure that the air flow around the
switch is not restricted.
oFor all other 24- and 48-port 6200F models: In the front or the back of the switch, leave at least 7.6 cm
(3 inches) of space for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic cabling. For the air flow direction, see the latest
Installation and Getting Started Guide.
oFor Aruba 6200F 12G Class4 PoE 2G/2SFP+ 139W Switch (R8Q72A) and Aruba 6200F 12G Class4 PoE
2G/2SFP+ 139W TAA Switch (R8V13A) models: In the front or the back of the switch, leave at least
15.24 cm (6 inches) of space for the twisted-pair and fiber-optic cabling.
nMarking label (includes power rating) is at the bottom of the switch.
nThe switch equipment is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.
NOTE:
nUse only supported Aruba transceivers and DACcabes.
nThe HPEAruba Networking CX 6200F switch port side transceiver slots support SFP and SFP+ transceivers.
