Safety recommendations
To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury caused by improper use, read the following safety
recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible
hazardous condition.

2
•Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch
with a 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. The switch might be severely damaged in
case of a fall.
•Ensure good ventilation of the equipment room 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 operating voltage is in the required range.
•To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the
switch is just powered off.
•When replacing field replacable units (FRUs), including interface cards, power supplies, and
fan trays, wear an ESD wrist strap to avoid damaging the units.
Examining the installation site
The switch 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 outlet vents for ventilation.
•The rack or workbench has a good ventilation system.
•Identify the hot aisle and cold aisle at the installation site, and make sure ambient air flows into
the switch from the cold aisle and exhausts to the hot aisle.
•Identify the airflow designs of neighboring devices, and prevent hot air flowing out of the
neighboring device from entering the device.
•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.
Temperature/humidity
Maintain temperature and humidity in the equipment room as described in "Appendix A Chassis
views and 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 cause 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 "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 2 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 limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion and
premature aging of components, as shown in Table 3.

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 protection earth (PE)
to filter interference from the power grid.
•Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency
devices.
•Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.
•To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning
strikes, route interface cables only indoors.
Laser safety
WARNING!
The switch is class 1 laser device. Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The
laser light emitted from the optical fiber might hurt your eyes.
Installation tools
•Flat-blade screwdriver
•Phillips screwdriver

Rack-mounting by using front mounting brackets
This task requires two people.
To install the switch in a 19-inch rack by using the front mounting brackets:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Determine the mounting position on the switch for the front mounting brackets.
You can install the front mounting brackets at one of the following positions:
{HPE 5510 24G SFP 4SFP+ HI, HPE 5510 24G 4SFP+ HI, and HPE 5510 48G 4SFP+ HI
switches—Port side, power supply side, or mid-mounting position.
{HPE 5510 24G PoE+ 4SFP+ HI and HPE 5510 48G PoE+ 4SFP+ HI
switches—Mid-mounting position.
3. Attach the front mounting brackets to the chassis:
a. Unpack the front mounting brackets and the M4 screws (supplied with the switch) for
attaching the brackets to the switch chassis.
b. Align the round holes in the wide flange of one front mounting bracket with the screw holes
in the chassis.
c. Use M4 screws to attach the mounting bracket to the chassis.
d. Repeat the proceeding two steps to attach the other mounting bracket to the chassis.

Rack-mounting by using front and rear mounting brackets
(HPE 5510 24G PoE+ 4SFP+ HI and HPE 5510 48G PoE+
4SFP+ HI)
This mounting method is applicable to only the HPE 5510 24G PoE+ 4SFP+ HI and HPE 5510 48G
PoE+ 4SFP+ HI switches. You can install the front mounting brackets at the port-side or power-side
mounting position as needed. The following takes port-side mounting as an example. The
power-side mounting is similar.
This task requires two people.
To install the switch in a 19-inch rack by using the front and rear mounting brackets:
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
2. Attach the front mounting brackets and load-bearing screws to the chassis:
a. Unpack the front mounting brackets and the M4 screws for attaching the brackets to the
switch chassis.
b. Align the round holes in the wide flange of one front mounting bracket with the screw holes
in the port-side mounting position on one side of the chassis (see Figure 12).
c. Use M4 screws (supplied with the switch) to attach the mounting bracket to the chassis.
d. Repeat the proceeding two steps to attach the other mounting bracket to the chassis.
e. Unpack the load-bearing screws.
f. Install the load-bearing screws in one of the load-bearing screw mounting positions on both
sides of the chassis (see Figure 12).
Figure 12 Attaching the front mounting brackets and load-bearing screws to the chassis
3. Attach the rear mounting brackets to the rack:
a. Unpack the rear mounting brackets.
b. Install cage nuts (user-supplied) in the mounting holes in the rear rack posts.
c. Attach the rear mounting brackets to the rear posts with M6 screws (user supplied), as
shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14.
Do not fully tighten the M6 screws before mounting the switch in the rack.

4. Mount the switch chassis in the rack:
a. One person supports the chassis bottom with one hand, holds the front part of the chassis
with the other hand, and pushes the chassis into the rack gently.
Make sure the load-bearing screws closely contact with the upper edges of the rear
mounting brackets, as shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16.

b. The other person aligns the oval holes in the front brackets with the mounting holes in the
front rack posts, and attaches the front mounting brackets with M6 screws (user supplied) to
the front rack posts.
Tighten the screws and make sure the front and rear mounting brackets have securely
attached the switch to the rack.

Mounting the switch on a workbench
IMPORTANT:
•Ensure good ventilation and 10 cm (3.9 in) of clearance around the chassis for heat dissipation.
•Avoid placing heavy objects on the switch.
To mount the switch on a workbench:
1. Verify that the workbench is sturdy and reliably grounded.
2. Place the switch with bottom up, and clean the round holes in 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.
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 so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the
earth to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.
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
•Grounding the switch by using the AC power cord
NOTE:
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, connect the grounding cable to the grounding
strip.
Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis
1. Remove the grounding screw from the rear panel of the switch chassis.
2. Use the grounding screw to attach the ring terminal of the grounding cable to the grounding
screw hole.
3. Verify that the grounding cable has been securely connected to the rear grounding point.
