Safety recommendations
To avoid equipment damage or bodily injury, read the following safety recommendations before
installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.
•Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch
with wet cloth or liquid.
•Do not place the switch near water or in a damp environment. Prevent water or moisture from
entering the switch chassis.
•Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk.
•Ensure good ventilation at the installation site and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the
switch free of obstruction.
•Connect the yellow-green protection grounding cable before power-on.
•Make sure the power source voltage is as required.
•To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the
switch is just powered off.
•To avoid ESD damage, wear an ESD wrist strap to hot-swap a power module.
Examining the installation site
The S5130-EI switches must be used indoors. You can mount your switch in a rack or on a
workbench, but make sure:
•Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and exhaust vents for ventilation.
•The rack or workbench has a good ventilation system.
•The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.
•The rack or workbench is reliably grounded.
To ensure correct operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an environment that meets
the requirements described in the following subsections.

2
Temperature/humidity
Maintain temperature and humidity in the equipment room as described in "Technical specifications."
•Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical
property change of materials, and metal corrosion.
•Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and bring problems
including loose mounting screws and circuit failure.
•High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the
reliability and lifespan of the switch.
For the temperature and humidity requirements of different switch models, see "Appendix A Chassis
views and technical specifications."
Cleanliness
Dust buildup on the chassis might result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of
metal components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst
case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.
Table 1 Dust concentration limit in the equipment room
Substance Concentration limit (particles/m³)
Dust ≤3 x 104 (no visible dust on the tabletop over three days)
NOTE:
Dust diameter ≥5 μm
The equipment room must also meet strict limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion
and premature aging of components, as shown in Table 2 .
Table 2 Harmful gas limits in the equipment room
Gas Maximum concentration (mg/m3)
SO20.2
H2S 0.006
NH30.05
Cl20.01
EMI
All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the switch and application
system, adversely affect the switch in the following ways:
•A conduction pattern of capacitance coupling.
•Inductance coupling.
•Electromagnetic wave radiation.
•Common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling.
To prevent EMI, use the following guidelines:
•If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protective earth (PE)
to filter interference from the power grid.

3
•Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency
devices to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.
•Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary. For example, use shielded interface cables.
•To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by over-voltage or over-current caused by
lightning strikes, only route interface cables indoors.
Laser safety
WARNING!
Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The laser light emitted from the optical
fiber might hurt your eyes.
The S5130-EI switches are Class 1 laser devices.
Installation tools
•Flat-blade screwdriver
•Phillips screwdriver
•ESD wrist strap
All these installation tools are user supplied.

Grounding the switch
WARNING!
Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.
The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the
chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this
chassis ground to the earth to minimize the potential for system damage, maximize the safety at the
site, and minimize EMI susceptibility of the system.
You can ground the switch in one of the following ways, depending on the grounding conditions
available at the installation site:
•Grounding the switch with a grounding strip
•Grounding the switch with a grounding conductor buried in the earth ground
NOTE:
•To guarantee the grounding effect, use the grounding cable provided with the switch to connect to the
grounding strip in the equipment room as long as possible.
•The power and grounding terminals in this section are for illustration only.
Grounding the switch with a grounding strip
WARNING!
Connect the grounding cable to the grounding system in the equipment room. Do not connect it to a
fire main or lightning rod.
If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, use the grounding strip to ground the switch.
To ground the switch by using a grounding strip:
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the grounding screw on the switch.
a. Remove the grounding screw from the rear panel of the switch chassis.
b. Attach the grounding screw to the ring terminal of the grounding cable.
c. Use a screwdriver to fasten the grounding screw into the grounding screw hole.

Grounding the switch with a grounding conductor buried in
the earth ground
If the installation site has no grounding strips, but earth ground is available, hammer a 0.5 m (1.64 ft)
or longer angle iron or steel tube into the earth ground to serve as a grounding conductor.

10
The dimensions of the angle iron must be at least 50 × 50 × 5 mm (1.97 × 1.97 × 0.20 in). The steel
tube must be zinc-coated and its wall thickness must be at least 3.5 mm (0.14 in).
Weld the yellow-green grounding cable to the angel iron or steel tube and treat the joint for corrosion
protection.

Installing and removing a power module
(S5130-28F-EI switch)
CAUTION:
Provide a circuit breaker for each power module and make sure the circuit breaker is off before
installation.
The S5130-28F-EI switch provides two power module slots and comes with power module slot 1
empty and a filler panel in power module slot 2. You can install one power module, or two power
modules for redundancy. For information about power modules available for the S5130-28F-EI
switch, see "Appendix B FRUs."
When two power modules are installed, you can hot-swap a power module. To avoid device damage
and bodily injury, follow the procedures in Figure 14 and Figure 15 to install and replace a power
module.
Figure 14 Installation procedure
Figure 15 Removal procedure
The installation and removal procedures are the same for the PSR150-A1, PSR150-A, and
PSR150-D1 power modules. This guide uses the PSR150-A power module as an example.

11
Installing a power module
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Unpack the power module and verify that the power module model is as required.
3. Remove the filler panel (if any) from the target slot.
If you require only one power module, install it in power module slot 1 and make sure a filler
panel is installed in power module slot 2.
4. Orient the power module with the upside up. Grasp the handle of the power module with one
hand and support its bottom with the other, and slide the power module slowly along the guide
rails into the slot. See callout 1 in Figure 16.
To prevent damage to the power module and the connector on the switch backplane, insert the
power module gently. If you encounter a hard resistance or the power module tilts while
inserting the power module, pull out the power module, realign it with the slot, and then insert it
again.
5. Fasten the captive screws on the power module with a Phillips screwdriver to secure the power
module in the chassis. See callout 2 in Figure 16.
If the captive screw cannot be tightly fastened, examine the installation of the power module.

Connecting the power cord for an AC power module
The power cord connection procedure is similar for a built-in AC power module and a
PSR150-A1/PSR150-A power module. The following procedure connects the power cord for a
PSR150-A1 power module.
To connect the power cord for an AC power module:
1. Pull the bail latch leftward, as shown in Figure 18.
2. Connect the female connector of the AC power cord to the power-input power receptacle on the
power module. See callout 1 in Figure 19.
3. Pull the bail latch rightward to secure the connector to the power receptacle. See callout 2
in Figure 19.
4. Connect the other end of the power cord to an external power source.
{For a PSR150-A1 power module, connect the power cord to an AC power source or a 240V
high-voltage DC power source.
{For a built-in power module or a PSR150-A power module, connect the power cord to an AC
power source.
