2.5 Power Supply Modules
The power supply modules are hot-swappable power supply units (PSUs) for the switch.
You can install up to two PSUs. The PSUs operate in a load-sharing mode and provides 1+1
redundancy.
(Figure 2-7: Power Supply Unit)
NOTE:
1+1 redundancy is a system where a switch power supply is backed up by
another switch power supply in a load-sharing mode. If one power supply fails,
the other power supply takes over the full load of the switch.
WARNING:
• The switch includes plug-in power supply and fan tray modules that are
installed into its chassis. All modules have a front-to-back airow direction.
• Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions.
• Remove the power cable from the module prior to removing the module
itself. Power cable must not be connected prior to insertion in the chassis or
equivalent.
AVERTISSEMENT:
• Le commutateur comporte des modules de bloc d’alimentation enchable
et de cassette de ventilation dans son châssis. La circulation d’air se fait de
l’avant vers l’arrière dans tous les modules.
• Risque d’explosion si la pile est remplacée par une de type différent. Suivez
les instructions pour éliminer les piles usées.
• Débranchez le câble d’alimentation du module avant de retirer ce dernier. Le
câble d’alimentation ne doit pas être branché avant l’insertion des modules
dans le châssis ou ailleurs.

AG9064 Spine Switch
2.6 Fan Tray Module
The fan tray module is part of the switch air cooling system that provides cooling for the
switch. You must install the fan tray module in the switch that matches the airow direction of
the installed power supply unit.
(Figure 2-8: Fan Tray Module)

Chapter 3: Installation
3.1 Mounting
This switch can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a horizontal surface.
Mounting instructions for each type of site follow.
3.1.1 Rack Mounting
Prior rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors:
•Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit.
•Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded.
•Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the mains.
To rack-mount devices:
1. Install the front mounting bracket to the device using the six M4 screws provided in the rack
mounting kit.
(Figure 3-1: Installing the Front Mounting Bracket)
2. Align the front mounting bracket to the rack holes. Then secure the front mounting bracket
using the screws.
NOTE:
Rack screws and clip nuts are not supplied in the rack-mounting kit.
CAUTION:
Due to the switch’s weight, it should be installed by at least two people.
MISE EN GARDE:
À cause du poids du commutateur, au moins deux personnes doivent l’installer.

12
AG9064 Spine Switch
(Figure 3-2: Securing the Front Mounting Bracket)
3. From the rear side of the device, install the rear mounting brackets on both sides of the
device.
(Figure 3-3: Installing the Rear Mounting Brackets)
4. Align the rear mounting brackets to the rack holes. Then secure the rear mounting brackets
using the screws.
(Figure 3-4: Securing the Rear Mounting Brackets)
5. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source”.
6. If installing multiple switches, mount them in the rack, one below the other, in any order.

• InstallationChapter 3
13
3.1.2 Horizontal Surface Mounting
The switch includes four pre-installed rubber feet for horizontal surface mounting.
To mount devices on a horizontal surface, follow these steps:
1. Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the rst switch.
(Figure 3-5: Attaching the Adhesive Feet)
2. Set the device on a at horizontal surface near an AC power source, making sure there are
at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air ow.
3. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source”.
4. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one, then place each device
squarely on top of the one below, in any order.

14
AG9064 Spine Switch
3.2 Installing an Optional QSFP/QSFP28 Transceiver
The QSFP28 slots support the following optional QSFP/QSFP28 transceivers:
•100GBASE-SR4
•100GBASE-LR4
•100GBASE AOC (Active Optical Cable)
•100GBASE DAC (Direct Attached Cable)
•100G to 4x25G AOC
•100G to 4x25G DAC
•40GBASE-SR
•40GBASE-LR4
•40GBASE AOC (Active Optical Cable)
•40GBASE DAC (Direct Attached Cable)
(Figure 3-6: Inserting a QSFP/QSFP28 Transceiver into a Slot)
To install a QSFP/QSFP28 transceiver, follow these steps:
1. Consider network and cabling requirements to select an appropriate QSFP/QSFP28
transceiver type.
2. Insert the transceiver with the optical connector facing outward and the slot connector
facing down. Note that QSFP/QSFP28 transceivers are keyed so they can only be installed
in one orientation.
3. Slide the QSFP/QSFP28 transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place.
NOTE:
•QSFP/QSFP28 transceivers are hot-swappable. The switch does not need
to be powered off before installing or removing a transceiver. However,
always rst disconnect the network cable before removing a transceiver.
•QSFP/QSFP28 transceivers are not provided in the switch package.
•QSFP28 Ports to SFP28 Ports: The AG9064 also supports splitting a
100G QSFP28 port into 25G ports via the breakout cables. Do consult your
software provider for port mode change and conguration.

• InstallationChapter 3
15
3.3 Connecting to the Console Port
This port is used to connect a console device to the switch through a nullmodem serial cable.
The console device can be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-
100 terminal.
NOTE:
An RJ-45-to-DB-9 cable is not supplied with the switch for connecting to a PC’s
RS-232 serial DB-9 DTE port.
DP-9 port
RJ-45 connector
(Figure 3-7: Console Port Connection)
3.4 Connecting to a Power Source
3.4.1 Installing an AC Power Supply
To connect a switch to a power source:
1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the AC socket of a PSU located at the back of the
switch.
Power socket
(Figure 3-8: Power Socket)
2. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded, 3-pin, AC power source.
NOTE:
For International use, you may need to change the AC line cord. You must use a
line cord set that has been approved for the socket type in your country.
3. Check the PSU and front-panel LEDs as the device is powered on to be sure that AC
power is being received and the PWR1 LED is on. If not, check that the power cable is
correctly plugged in.

16
AG9064 Spine Switch
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 when a second PSU module is installed.
Two installed PSU modules operate in a load-sharing mode and provide 1+1 redundancy.
3.4.2 Installing a DC Power Supply
Two types of connection to a power source:
a. DC power cord for DC source connection
1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the DC socket of a PSU located at the back of the
switch.
GND
-48V(-DC)
-48V_RTN (+DC)
(Figure 3-9: Installing a DC Power Supply and Power Cable)
2. Plug the other end of the cable into DC power source. This product is intended to be
supplied by DC power source with rated -36V - -72Vdc, 42A minimum, Tma = 45 degree C,
and the altitude of operation = 5000 m. The power cable should be 14AWG (42A minimum,
-36V minimum).
CAUTION:
•Reversing polarity when connecting DC power wires can
permanently damage the power supply or the system.
•Always disconnect the power cable from power source before you
service the power supply slots.
MISE EN GARDE:
•L’inversion de la polarité des câbles d’alimentation CC lors de
leur branchement peut endommager irréversiblement le bloc
d’alimentation ou le système.
•Débranchez le câble d’alimentation de l’unité d’alimentation avant
l’entretien des fentes du bloc d’alimentation.
3. Check the PSU and front-panel LEDs as the device is powered on to be sure that DC
power is being received and the PWR1 LED is on. If not, check that the power cable is
correctly plugged in.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 2 when a second PSU module is installed.
Two installed PSU modules operate in a load-sharing mode and provide 1+1 redundancy.
