Considerations Before Installing
●The system is designed to operate in a typical Telco environment that is environmentally controlled.
Choose an indoor area that has the following characteristics:
- Temperature-controlled and humidity-controlled, to ensure that the maximum ambient room
temperature shall not exceed the temperature specified in the product data sheet
- Clean and free from airborne materials that can conduct electricity
- Well ventilated and away from sources of heat, including direct sunlight
- Away from sources of vibration or physical shock
- Isolated from strong electromagnetic fields produced by electrical devices
- Secured, enclosed, and restricted-access, ensuring that only trained and qualified service
personnel have access to the equipment
●Establish at least 3 inches clearance on all sides for effective ventilation. Do not obstruct air intake
vents or ventilation grills on the front, side, or rear panel. Locate the system away from heat sources.
●Make sure that your equipment is placed in an area that accommodates the product specifications
for power consumption and component heat dissipation.
●Make sure that your power supplies meet the site power or AC power requirements of all network
equipment.
Maintenance Safety
●Use only original accessories or components that are approved for use with this system.
Failure to follow these instructions may damage the equipment or violate required safety and
EMC regulations.
●The chassis cover should be removed only by Extreme Networks personnel. This system contains no
customer-serviceable components. Repairs to the system must be performed by an Extreme
Networks factory service technician.
●Disconnect all power cords before working near power supplies, unless a maintenance procedure
instructs you to do otherwise.
●Replace a power cord immediately if it shows any signs of damage.
●When you work with optical devices or other modular accessories, wear an ESD-preventive wrist
strap to reduce the risk of electronic damage to the equipment. Connect the other end of the strap to
an appropriate grounding point on the equipment rack. Leave the ESD-preventive wrist strap
permanently attached to the equipment rack so that it is always available when you need to handle
ESD-sensitive components.
●Install all cables in a manner that avoids strain. Use tie wraps or other strain relief devices.

General Safety Precautions
●Do not try to lift objects that you think are too heavy for you.
●When you install equipment in a rack, load heavier devices in the lower half of the rack first to
avoid making the rack top-heavy.
●For Summit desktop equipment installations, do not place a monitor or other heavy objects on top of
the equipment. The chassis cover is not designed to support weight.
●Use only tools and equipment that are in perfect condition. Do not use equipment with
visible damage.
●Route cables in a manner that prevents possible damage to the cables and avoids causing accidents,
such as tripping.
Selecting AC Power Supply Cords
Extreme Networks does not include AC power input cords in the product box. To purchase a power
cord for your product and for your specific country, contact your local Extreme Networks Channel
Account Manager or Sales Manager, or purchase a cord from your local supplier.
To locate a Sales Manager or Partner in your region visit:
http://www.extremenetworks.com/how-to-buy/how-to-buy.aspx
Power cords that are used with AC-powered Summit X440 series switches must meet the
following requirements:
●The power cord must be agency-certified for the country of use.
●The power cord must have an IEC320-C13 connector for connection to the switch or external power
supply.
●The power cord must have an appropriately rated and approved wall plug applicable to the country
of installation.
●For cords up to 6 feet (2 m) long, the wire size must be 18 AWG (.75 mm2) minimum; over 6 feet, the
minimum wire size is 16 AWG (1.0 mm2).
Connecting Power
For the specific ratings and input power requirements of each switch model, see the data sheet for the
Summit X440 series switches at http://www.extremenetworks.com.
WARNING!
Be sure to satisfy the requirements listed in this section when you connect all Extreme Networks
equipment to power.

●Plug power cords only into properly grounded electrical outlets to help prevent electrical shock and
to comply with international safety standards.
●Use only power cords that are certified for use within the country of use. Do not attempt to modify
AC power cords.
●Make sure the voltage and frequency of your power outlet match the system electrical ratings for the
equipment. The building and/or power source must provide overload protection.
●Use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply to protect the system from
momentary increases or decreases in electrical power.
●Summit X440 series switches do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Remove the wall
plug from the electrical outlet to disconnect the power from a Summit X440 series switch. Make sure
that this connection is near the equipment and is easily accessible for quick disconnect.
WARNING!
Make sure that the source outlet is properly grounded according to the country’s local electrical
requirements before plugging the AC supply power cord into a power supply.
DC Powered Summit X440 Switches
Grounding a Summit X440-24tDC and X440-48tDC DC-Powered Switch
Before you connect the power input cable to a Summit X440 DC-powered switch, you must ground the
chassis, following the instructions in this section.
Gather the following materials to ground the Summit DC-powered switch:
●Stranded copper wire cable, minimum size 14 AWG, maximum size 6 AWG with spade connectors.
The wire should be long enough to reach from the installed switch to the facility ground point
●Torque screwdriver with 1/4-inch Phillips driver.
●Additional grounding hardware appropriate to the earth ground connection at your site
WARNING!
Be sure to connect the chassis ground wire before you connect any power cables.

To ground the switch:
1Identify the grounding lug on the back of the switch. The grounding lug is is the middle screw of the
power connector panel, identified by the international symbol for earth ground. (see Figure 3).
Figure 3: Location of the Grounding Lug on the power connector panel
2Insert the spade terminal of the ground wire underneath the grounding lug (see Figure 4).
Figure 4: Attaching the Ground Wire to a Summit X440 DC Series Switch
3Using a straight-tip torque screwdriver, tighten the retaining screw to 20 pound-inches
(2.25 Newton-meters).
4Connect the other end of the wire to a known reliable earth ground point at your site.
Connecting the DC Power Cables on the Summit X440-24tDC and X440-48tDC
Switch to a -48V power source
To connect the DC power cables to the Summit X440 DC powered switches:

Cable Routing for LAN Systems
The Summit X440 series switches meet the requirements for LAN system equipment. LAN systems are
designed only for intra-building installations; that is, cable runs between devices must be in the same
building as the connected units.
Fiber Optic Ports—Optical Safety
The following safety warnings apply to all optical devices used in Extreme Networks equipment that
are removable or directly installed in an I/O module or chassis system. Such devices include but are
not limited to gigabit interface converters (GBICs), small form factor pluggable (SFP) modules (or
mini-GBICs), XENPAK transceivers, and XFP laser optic modules.
WARNING!
Laser optic modules become very hot after prolonged use. Be careful when you remove a laser optic
module from the chassis or option card. If the laser optic module is too hot to touch, disengage the laser optic
module and allow it to cool before removing it completely.
-48 ~ -72V
+48V -48V

WARNING!
When you work with laser optic modules, always take the precautions listed below to avoid exposure to
hazardous radiation.
●Never look at the transmit LED/laser through a magnifying device while the laser is powered on.
●Never look directly at a fiber port on the switch or at the ends of a fiber cable when they are
powered on.
●Invisible laser radiation can occur when the connectors are open. Avoid direct eye exposure to the
beam when optical connections are unplugged.
●Never alter, modify, or change an optical device in any way other than suggested in this
document.
