Installation Guidelines
When determining where to place the switch, observe these guidelines.
The switch should only be installed in the vertical orientation shown in this document.
Note
Environment and Enclosure Guidelines
Review these environmental and enclosure guidelines before installation:
•This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment, in overvoltage Category
II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 9842 ft (3 km) without derating.
•This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment, according to IEC/CISPR Publication
11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic
compatibility in other environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
• This equipment is supplied as open-type equipment. It must be mounted within an enclosure that is
suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that will be present and appropriately
designed to prevent personal injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have
suitable flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying with a
flame-spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or equivalent) if nonmetallic. The interior of the enclosure
must be accessible only by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication might contain
additional information regarding specific enclosure-type ratings that are required to comply with certain
product safety certifications.
General Guidelines
Before installation, observe these general guidelines:

Installation Guidelines

Proper ESD protection is required whenever you handle Cisco equipment. Installation and maintenance
personnel should be properly grounded by using ground straps to eliminate the risk of ESD damage to the
switch.
Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards. Do not touch circuit components inside the switch.
When not in use, store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging.
Caution
• The switch meets the voltage dips and interruptions requirements of IEC 61850-3 only when powered
by a redundant power supply configuration.
• If you are responsible for the application of safety-related programmable electronic systems (PES), you
need to be aware of the safety requirements in the application of the system and be trained in using the
system.
• For better EMC performance, it is suggested to use S/UTP or SF/UTP cables for copper Ethernet ports.
Refer ISO/IEC11801 standard for details on S/UTP and SF/UTP.
The device is designed to mount on a DIN rail that conforms to Standard EN60715.
Caution
In order to prevent excessive side to side movement of the unit it is advised to install DIN rail stop plates such
as mouser part numbers 653-PFP-M, 651-1201662 or 845-CA402. These end stops can be installed on one
or both sides or the unit to limit excessive side to side movement that typically occurs in high vibration
environments.
Note
When determining where to place the switch, observe these guidelines:
• Before installing the switch, first verify that the switch is operational by powering it on and observing
boot fast. Follow the procedures in the Verifying Switch Operation, on page 27.
• For 10/100/1000 ports, the cable length from a switch to an attached device cannot exceed 328 feet (100
meters).
• Clearance to front and rear panels meets these conditions:
• Front-panel LEDs can be easily read.
• Access to ports is sufficient for unrestricted cabling.
• Front-panel direct current (DC) power connectors and the alarm connector are within reach of the
connection to the DC power source.
• Airflow around the switch must be unrestricted. To prevent the switch from overheating, you must have
the following minimum clearances:
• Top and bottom: 2.0 in. (50.8 mm)
• Sides: 2.0 in. (50.8 mm)
• Front: 2.0 in. (50.8 mm)

Switch Installation
General Guidelines

When the switch is installed in an industrial enclosure, the temperature within the enclosure is greater than
normal room temperature outside the enclosure.
Ensure temperatures inside the enclosure conform to device specifications detailed in the Data Sheet.
Caution
• Cabling is away from sources of electrical noise, such as radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting
fixtures.
Installing or Removing the Flash Memory Card (Optional)
Optionally, you can execute the sync command to copy Flash to SDFlash: and make SDFlash: the primary
storage, then remove the SD card.
It is strongly recommended that you use the SD card to boot or store the config for future easy replacement,
in case of a hardware failure.
To install or replace the flash memory card, follow these steps:
1. On the front of the switch, locate the door that protects the flash memory card slot. Loosen the captive
screw at the top of the door using a Phillips screwdriver to open the door.

Installing or Removing the Flash Memory Card (Optional)

2. Install or remove the card:
a. To install a card, slide it into the slot, and press it in until it clicks in place. The card is keyed so that
you cannot insert it the wrong way.
b. To remove the card, push it in until it releases for it to pop out. Place it in an antistatic bag to protect
it from static discharge.
3. After the card is installed, close the guard door and fasten the captive screw using a Phillips screwdriver
to keep the door in place.
Connecting to a Console Port (Optional)
You can also enter CLI commands through the console port. For more information about this process see
Accessing the CLI Through the Console Port.
Attaching an Expansion Module (Optional)
If you’re installation calls for use of one of the expansion modules listed in Switch Models, use the following
procedure to attach the module to the switch:
Do not attach any expansion module to a switch while the switch is energized.
Danger
1. Remove the 2 screws securing the side cover plate to the switch.
2. Remove the two screws from the front of the Expansion chassis, and the two screws from the rear of the
base.

Installing the Power Converter on a DIN Rail, Wall, or Rack Adapter
You install the power converter on a DIN rail, wall, or rack as you would a switch module.
This equipment is supplied as “open type” equipment. It must be mounted within an enclosure that is suitably
designed for those specific environmental conditions that will be present and appropriately designed to prevent
personal injury resulting from accessibility to live parts. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only
by the use of a tool.
The enclosure must meet IP 54 or NEMA type 4 minimum enclosure rating standards. Statement 1063
Warning
To prevent the switch assemble from overheating, there must be sufficient spacings as explained under
Installation Guidelines, between any other switch assembly.
Caution
Grounding the Switch
Make sure to follow any grounding requirements at your site.
This equipment must be grounded. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence
of a suitably installed ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician
if you are uncertain that suitable grounding is available. Statement 1024
Warning
When installing or replacing the unit, the ground connection must always be made first and disconnected last.
Statement 1046
Warning
This equipment is intended to be grounded to comply with emission and immunity requirements. Ensure that
the switch functional ground lug is connected to earth ground during normal use. Statement 1064
Warning
To make sure that the equipment is reliably connected to earth ground, follow the grounding procedure
instructions, and use a UL-listed ring terminal lug suitable for number 10 AWG wire, such as Hollingsworth
part number R3456B or equivalent)
Caution
Use at least an 10 AWG (5.26 mm2) conductor to connect to the external grounding screw.
