Safety recommendations
To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury during installation, read the following safety
recommendations carefully before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover
every possible hazardous condition.
!Make sure the environmental conditions such as voltage, temperature, and humidity at the installation
site meet the device requirements.
Make sure the installation site is well-ventilated. Keep the air vents of the switch free of obstruction
during switch operation.
Place the switch in a location away from the interference sources.
Wear an ESD wrist strap during the installation. Make sure the wrist strap makes good skin contact
and is reliably grounded.
To avoid body injury and device damage, power on the switch after the switch is reliably grounded.
Install a filler panel in each unused slot to ensure good ventilation.
Installation accessories
The applicable installation accessories vary by switch model. The packing list describes the
accessories provided with the switch. For the accessories not provided with the switch, purchase
them yourself as required.
To rack-mount a switch not provided with mounting brackets, purchase mounting brackets from
Dahua.

brackets.
The applicable front mounting brackets and the installation positions for the brackets vary by switch
model. Select an installation position for the mounting brackets as required.
A Type A front mounting bracket requires four screws to attach to the switch. A Type B, Type C,
or Type D mounting bracket requires two screws to attach to the switch.

Using front and rear mounting brackets
!This installation method is applicable to switch models that are provided with front and rear mounting
brackets.
You can install the front mounting brackets near the port side or power side of the switch as needed.
(This section describes installation near the port side. The installation near the power module is
similar.)
The rear mounting brackets support wide-spacing installation and narrow-spacing installation. For
a switch with a depth of 360 mm (14.17 in), wide-spacing installation is applicable to a rack with a
depth in the range of 327 to 494 mm (12.87 to 19.45 in), and narrow-spacing installation is
applicable to a rack with a depth in the range of 172 to 339 mm (6.77 to 13.35 in). For a switch
with a depth of 460 mm (18.11 in), wide-spacing installation is applicable to a rack with a depth in
the range of 429 to 595 mm (16.89 to 23.43 in), and narrow-spacing installation is applicable to a
rack with a depth in the range of 274 to 440 mm (10.79 to 17.32 in). For narrow-spacing
installation, make sure the distance between the rear rack posts and the inside surface of the
cabinet door is greater than 153 mm (6.02 in).

Wide-spacing installation
Only switches that have two cross-shaped mounting holes in the bottom and come with screws of 20
mm (0.79 in) and screw anchors support wall mounting.
To avoid bodily injury, check the wall for the presence of electrical wires before drilling holes in the
wall.
Reserve a minimum clearance of 10 cm (3.94 in) around the switch for heat dissipation.

Drill two holes with a diameter of 6 mm (0.24 in) and depth of 25 mm (0.98 in) in the wall.
Hammer a screw anchor into each hole. Use a Phillips screwdriver to drive the screw into
each screw anchor, leaving 1.5 mm (0.06 in) between the screw head and the wall for
hanging the switch.

Connecting the grounding cable
Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection. Use the
grounding cable provided with the switch for grounding.

Connecting the power cord
For switch models with removable power modules, make sure the power modules are installed
correctly before connecting a power cord.
Before connecting the power cord, make sure the switch is reliably grounded.
To avoid bodily injury, connect the power cord first to the switch and then to the equipment-room
power supply system.
The number of cable ties and installation positions of the cable ties (if provided) depend on the
switch model.
The power cord varies by power module. Do not mix power cords.

Installing a power module
Remove a filler panel (skip this step if no filler panel is in the power module slot)
This section is applicable only to switch models that use removable power modules.
Mark the installation holes on the wall. Make
sure the two installation holes are on the same
horizontal line
Measure the distance between the

Before powering on the switch, make sure the power cord is correctly connected to the external
power supply system that supplies power normally and the console cable is correctly connected.
After the switch is powered on, identify whether the switch is operating correctly by observing the
LED status. For more information about LEDs, see LEDs in the installation guide for the switch.

To access the switch for the first time, you can use a console cable to connect the console port or
micro USB console port on the switch to a configuration terminal. Some devices support HTTP or
HTTPS login by default. Users can use the default login information to log in to the Web interface
of these devices through HTTP or HTTPS. The following figure connects the console port of the
switch to a configuration terminal.
