Introduction
Switch description
The S3L-24P Layer 3 Lite Managed Switch is targeted for the deployment in Small-to-Medium Businesses
(SMB) providing 10 Gbps Ethernet wire-speed connections that can be used to uplink servers or to
interconnect switches within the LAN. For medium-to-large scale enterprise deployment, these switches
provide an excellent means to interconnect edge switches and core switches.
This switch features twenty-four 10/100/1000Mbps RJ45 copper Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports and four
1/10Gbps SFP+ module ports.
This switch supports the latest IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) standard to save power while
links are online or to notify selective ports automatically to enter into the standby mode when no traffic is
being transmitted or received.
Package contents
After purchasing this switch, the following items will be included in the package:
•One S3L-24P Switch.
•One Quick Start Guide (QSG).

Connect one end of the AC power cord, included in the package, into the grounded electrical outlet at the
site and insert the other end of the AC power cord into the AC power receptacle. The switch will
automatically adjust the voltage supplied to the voltage needed as this power supply supports any voltage
power supply in the range from 100VAC to 240VAC at 50Hz to 60Hz.
Note:
For more information about supported SFP+ transceivers and transceiver installation, refer to the
Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports section later on.

Hardware installation
Installation guidelines
This section will discuss the hardware installation guidelines that administrators must follow in order to
properly and safely install this switch into the appropriate environment.
Note:
Please read through the Safety Instructions chapter before starting any installation discussed in this
chapter.
Installation into a rack
This switch can be mounted in a standard 19"(1U) rack using the provided mounting brackets. The following
section will explain how to install the rack-mount brackets onto the switch and then mount the switch into a
standard 1U rack-mount unit.
The following parts will be used to install the switch into a rack-mount unit:
•One pair of either frontal or rear rack-mount brackets.
•Eight Phillips-head frontal or rear rack-mount bracket screws.
Additional equipment needed to install the switch into a rack-mount unit:
•One Phillips-head screwdriver. This screwdriver will be used for the rack-mount bracket screws
•One additional screwdriver. This screwdriver will be used for the rack-mount unit screws and its type
and size depends on the rack-mount unit screws being used.
•Four rack-mount unit screws. These screws will be used to attach the switch onto to the rack-mount
unit and are not included in the switch’s packaging as rack-mount units differ at each installation site.
The figure below illustrates how to install the frontal rack-mount bracketsonto the switch.
1. Place the switch on a flat horizontal surface.
2. Position the frontal rack-mount bracket over the screw holes on the side of the switch. The ears of
the bracket must be facing forward and outwards.
3. Use the frontal rack-mount screws and the Phillips-head screwdriver to fasten the bracket onto the
side of the switch.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 for the other frontal rack-mount bracket on the other side of the switch.

The figure below illustrates how to complete the rack-mount installation.
5. Use the rack-mount unit screws and the additional screwdriver to fasten the frontal rack-mount
brackets onto the front of the rack-mount unit.
Figure 7 Installing switch in rack-mount unit
Note:
Make sure that there is adequate space around the switch to allow for proper air flow, ventilation, and
cooling.
Warning:
As a precaution, install the switch in a fairly cool and dry place within the acceptable temperature
and humidity operating ranges.

Installing transceivers into the transceiver ports
This switch supports 4 SPF+ 10 Gbps ports. SFP+ technology allows a smooth transition from 1 to 10 Gigabit
Ethernet infrastructures in switches. This switch supports both fiber and copper cabling solutions.
For low-cost cabling, copper-based 10 Gbps Twinaxial cables can be used, and for longer cable reaches,
Short-Reach (SR) optical transceivers are excellent. Connectivity can be established from the SFP+ ports to
10 Gigabit Ethernet switches or hosts using a fiber/copper cable that has an SFP+ transceiver on one end
and an SFP+ transceiver on the other end.
The figure below illustrates how to properly insert SFP+ transceivers into the switch’s SFP+ ports.
Figure 8: Installing transceivers into the transceiver ports
The following table lists the SFP+ transceiver types supported.
