Quick Start Guide
1. Unpack the Switch and Check Contents
HP 5600-48XG-4QSFP+
Switch Series
10G Top-of-Rack Switch
Rack Mounting Kit—Contains two brackets and eight
screws for attaching the brackets to the switch.
Power Cord—Country-specific power cord(s)
Console Cable—RJ-45 to DB-9
Documentation—Quick Start Guide (this document)
and Safety and Regulatory Information
Note: The switch has the Open Network Installer
Environment (ONIE) software pre-loaded, but no switch
software image pre-loaded.
Caution: The switch includes plug-in power supply and
fan tray modules that are installed into its chassis. All
installed modules must have a matching airflow direction.
That is, all modules must have a front-to-back (F2B) airflow
direction, or all modules must have a back-to-front (B2F)
airflow direction. The airflow direction of PSU and fan tray
modules is indicated by labels on the modules.
2. Mount the Switch
Attach the brackets to the switch.
Use the screws supplied with the rack to secure the switch in
the rack.
Caution: Installing the switch in a rack requires two
people. One person should position the switch in the rack,
while the other secures it using the rack screws.

3. Connect Power
Install one or two universal AC power modules in the switch.
The switch supports up to two PSUs that must have the
same matching airflow direction as the installed fan tray.
Connect an external AC power source to the modules.
4. Verify Switch Operation
Verify basic switch operation by checking the system LEDs.
When operating normally, the PSU1/PSU2, Diag, and Fan
LEDs should all be on green.
5. Perform Initial System Boot
If the network operating system (NOS) installer is located on
a network server, first connect the RJ-45 Management
(Mgmt) port to the network using 100-ohm Category 5, 5e
or better twisted-pair cable. (Not required if the NOS
installer is located on attached storage.)
Boot the switch. Wait for the ONIE software to locate and
execute the NOS installer, and then wait for the installer to
load the NOS software image.
Subsequent switch boots will bypass ONIE and directly run
the NOS software.
Note: Refer to the network operating system (NOS) installer
and NOS documentation for details on software options and
set up for ONIE.

6. Connect Network Cables
For the RJ-45 Management port, connect 100-ohm Category
5, 5e or better twisted-pair cable.
Connect DAC cables to the SFP+/QSFP+ slots. Or first install
SFP+/QSFP+ transceivers and then connect fiber optic
cabling to the transceiver ports.
The following transceivers are supported:
◆40GBASE-CR4
◆40GBASE-SR4
◆10GBASE-CR
◆10GBASE-SR
◆1000BASE-SX
◆1000BASE-LX
Note: As connections are made, check the port status LEDs
to be sure the links are valid.

Installation Precautions
Warnings
◆The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable, tilting, or falling.
◆Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as
low as possible, with the heaviest devices at the bottom and
progressively lighter devices above.
Cautions
◆Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then
use the power cord supplied with the switch to connect to the
AC power source.
◆If your installation requires a different power cord than the
one supplied with the switch and/or power supply, be sure the
cord is adequately sized for the switch’s current requirements.
In addition, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of
the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords
in your country/region. The mark is your assurance that the
power cord can be used safely with the switch and power
supply.
◆When installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the
switch and should be easily accessible in case the switch must
be powered off.
◆Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits,
wiring, and over-current protection. To determine the
possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add together the
ampere ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as
the switch and compare the total with the rating limit for the
circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on
the devices near the AC power connectors.
◆Do not install the switch in an environment where the
operating ambient temperature exceeds its specification.
◆Ensure the airflow around the switch is not restricted. Leave at
least 7.6 cm (3inches) for cooling.

recycling information, refer to the safety and regulatory
