Installation preparations
Installation site
The switch must be used indoors. Before installation, verify that the rack is
sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.
To ensure correct operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an
environment that meets the temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic shield
(EMS) requirements. For more information, see H3C S5820X Switch Series
Installation Guide.
Installation tools
The installation tools are not provided with the switch. Prepare them yourself.

NOTE:
The S5820X-28C switch supports hot-swapping of interface cards and
OAP cards. You can install or remove an interface card or an OAP card
w
hen the switch is operating. For more information, see "Installing an
interface card" and "Installing an OAP card."
Installing the switch in a rack
Attaching an ESD wrist strap
Before installation, wear an ESD strap, and make sure one end of the wrist
strap has a good skin contact and the other end is attached to a post of the
correctly-grounded rack, as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3 Attaching an ESD wrist strap
Installation accessories
The S5820X-28S/S5820X-26S switch comes with a pair of 1 U load-bearing
mounting brackets. The S5820X-28C switch comes with a pair of 2 U
load-bearing mounting brackets, and each mounting bracket is attached with
a cable management bracket.

Mounting the switch on a workbench
CAUTION:
•Ensure 10 cm (3.94 in) of clearance around the switch.
•Do not place heavy objects on the switch.
If a standard 19-inch rack is not available, you can place you switch on a
workbench. The S5820X-26S switch cannot be mounted on a workbench.
To mount the switch on a workbench:
1. Make sure the workbench is clean and correctly grounded.
2. Place the switch with bottom up carefully, and clean the round holes on
the chassis bottom with dry cloth.
3. Attach the rubber feet to the four round holes in the chassis bottom.
4. Place the switch with upside up on the workbench.

Connecting the grounding cable
CAUTION:
Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning
protection and EMS of a switch.
Connecting the grounding cable for an
S5820X-26S switch
The S5820X-26S switch has three grounding points, as shown in Figure 19.
H3C recommends that you use the primary grounding point.

To connect the grounding cable for an S5820X-26S switch:
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the grounding point on the
switch. See Figure 12.
2. Attach the other end (ring terminal) of the grounding cable to a
grounding post on the grounding strip, and secure the grounding cable
to the grounding post by using a hex nut.
Figure 20 Connecting the grounding cable
Connecting the grounding cable for an
S5820X-28C or S5820X-28S switch
The S5820X-28C and S5820X-28S switches have a grounding point at their
rear panels. This guide uses the S5820X-28S switch as an example:
To connect the grounding cable:
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to the grounding point of the
switch.

16
Figure 21 Connecting one end of the grounding cable to the S5820X-28S
switch
2. To connect the other end of the grounding cable to a grounding strip:
a. Cut the grounding cable to a length according to the distance
between the switch and the grounding strip.
b. Peel 5 mm (0.20 in) of insulation sheath from the end, and then
insert the naked metal part through the black insulation covering into
the end of the ring terminal.
c. Secure the metal part of the cable to the ring terminal with a crimper,
and then cover it with the insulation covering.
d. Heat the insulation covering with a blow dryer to let it completely
cover the metal part.
e. Connect the ring terminal to the grounding post of the grounding
strip, and then fasten it with a hex nut.

Installing fan trays
CAUTION:
You must install two fan trays of the same model on the same switch.
The switch supports hot-swappable fan trays. Table 4 lists the fan trays
available for the switch. For more information about the fan trays, see H3C
LSW1FAN & LSW1BFAN Installation Manual and H3C LSWM1FANSC &
LSWM1FANSCB Installation Guide.

Installing power modules
CAUTION:
•For an S5820X-28C switch, do not remove the filler modules in the
power module slots. Before you install a PSR300-12A, PSR300-12A1,
PSR300-12A2, PSR300-12D1, or PSR300-12D2 power module on an
S5820X-28C switch, make sure the filler module has been installed.
•Do not install a 650 W power module (LSVM1AC650 or LSVM1DC650)
and a 300 W power module (LSVM1AC300 or LSVM1DC300) on the
same S5820X-26S switch.

The switch provides two power module slots and supports hot-swappable
power modules. A power module can meet the power requirements of the
switch. You can install two power modules for redundancy.
Table 5 lists the power modules available for these switches. For more
information about the power modules, see H3C PSR300-12A & PSR300-12D
Series Power Modules User Manual, H3C LSVM1AC650 & LSVM1DC650
