Installation precautions and guidelines
To help avoid personal injury or product damage when installing your switch, read the following installation precautions
and guidelines.
This section provides precautions and guidelines to observe when installing your switch. For full installation instructions,
see the Aruba 2930M Switches Installation and Getting Started Guide at http://h17007.www1.hpe.com/us/en/
networking/library/index.aspx?cat=switches&subcat=2930M&type=7. (Scroll to the Installation section and select the
latest version of the above-mentioned guide.)
WARNING:
• Do not mount the switch on a wall or under a table or under another horizontal surface.
• Mount devices installed in a rack or cabinet as low as possible. Put the heaviest devices at the bottom
and progressively lighter devices positioned higher.
• To prevent the rack or cabinet from becoming unstable and/or falling over, ensure that it is adequately
secured.
CAUTION:
• Do not ship any switch in a rack without checking for shipping restrictions in the Installation and Getting
Started Guide for your switch. Otherwise, you may void the switch warranty.
• Ensure that 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
Power cords on page 3.
• When installing the switch, ensure that the AC outlet is near the switch and easily accessible in case the
switch must be powered off.
• Ensure that the power cord and network cables at the switch mounting location do not create a tripping
hazard.
• Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient temperature exceeds its
specification. (See the environmental operating temperature information in the Installation and Getting
Started Guide for your switch product. Visit http://www.hpe.com/networking/ResourceFinder and
locate the installation guide by using the search tool on the resulting destination page. )
• Ensure 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.
• Avoid blocking any ventilation openings on the sides, rear, or front of the switch.
• Ensure that the air flow around the switch is not restricted. Leave at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) for cooling.
For the air flow direction, see the Installation and Getting Started Guide for your product at http://
www.hpe.com/networking/ResourceFinder. (Locate the installation guide by using the search tool on
the resulting destination page.)
• If a power supply must be removed, and then reinstalled, wait at least 5 seconds before reinstallation.
Otherwise, damage to the switch may occur. The power supply needs this time to bleed off any retained
power.
• Install cover plates on any slot that is not in use.

IMPORTANT:
• Use only supported Aruba SFP transceivers.
• The 2930M switch front panel transceiver slots support only SFP transceivers. To use SFP+ or QSFP+
transceivers with the switch, install an optional uplink module on the rear panel of the switch.

Power cords
Aruba includes the power cord intended for use with your Aruba switch. Different countries/regions may require different
power cords. For a list of the power cords that apply to your 2930M switch, see the section that lists power cords in the
latest edition of the Aruba 2930M Switch Series Installation and Getting Started Guide. To access this guide online:
1. Click http://h17007.www1.hpe.com/us/en/networking/library/index.aspx?cat=switches&subcat=2930M&type=7.
2. Scroll to the "Installation" section, where you will see a list of hardware installation documents.
3. Select the latest edition of the Aruba 2930M Switch Series Installation and Getting Started Guide.
CAUTION: Only Aruba-approved power cords may be used with Aruba devices. See the power cord
documentation provided in the latest version of the Aruba 2930M Switch Series Installation Guide at http://
h17007.www1.hpe.com/us/en/networking/library/index.aspx?cat=switches&subcat=2930M&type=7.
Lost or damaged power cords must be replaced only with Aruba-approved power cords. If your installation
requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the switch and/or power supply, use a power cord
that displays the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country or
region. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch and power supply.
WARNING: Do not use a damaged or nonrecommended power cord with your switch. Using such power
cords voids the switch and power supply warranty. It can also cause serious electrical problems, including
injury or death to personnel, and damage to the switch and other property. If you cannot verify that you have
a power cord approved for use with your switch model, contact your authorized Aruba dealer or sales
representative for assistance.
