Installation Guidelines

• This section will discuss the hardware installation guidelines that the user must follow in order to properly and safely install this switch into the appropriate environment.
• Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully secured to both the power connector, on the switch, and the electrical outlet that supplies power.
• Install the switch in a fairly cool and dry place within the acceptable operating temperature and humidity ranges.
• Install the switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators such as motors, vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.

Installing the Switch without a Rack.

• When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the device must be attached on the bottom at each corner of the device’s base.
• Install the switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support the weight of the switch. Do not place any heavy objects on the switch. Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate ventilation around the switch. Leave at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space at the front, sides, and rear of the switch for ventilation.

Installing the Switch in a Standard 19” Rack

• The switch can be mounted in a standard 19″(1U) rack using the provided mounting brackets. Fasten the mounting brackets to the sides of the switch using the screws provided.
• Fasten the mounting brackets in any available open space in the rack using the rack-mounting screws.

Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports

• The DQS-5000-54SQ28 switch is equipped with the SFP+, SFP28, QSFP+ and QSFP28 ports for connecting the transceivers.

Grounding the Switch

This section describes how to connect the switch to the ground. You must complete this procedure before powering on the switch.

1. Verify if the switch power is off.
2. Attach the terminal lug ring of the grounding cable to the ground screw opening of the switch with the grounding screw.
3. Attach the terminal lug ring at the other end of the grounding cable to an appropriate grounding stud or bolt on the rack where the switch is installed.
4. Verify that the ground connections on the switch and the rack are securely attached.

Plugging in the AC Power Cord

Plug one end of the AC power cord into the power socket of the switch and the other end into the electrical outlet.
Power Failure
In the event of a power failure, just as a precaution, unplug the power cord from the switch. After the power returns, plug the power cord back into the power socket of the switch.
Management Options
The DQS-5000-54SQ28 switch can be managed with the Command Line Interface (CLI) and SNMP.
Command Line Interface (CLI)
The switch can be managed with the CLI by connecting a PC to the console port or management port on the switch.

SNMP-based Management

• The switch can be managed with an SNMP-compatible console program. The switch supports SNMP v1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3.

Connecting to the Console Port

• The front panel of the switch provides a mini-USB console port to connect a remote system for monitoring and configuring the switch.
• Note: to use the mini-USB console port, you may be required to install a mini-USB driver.
• To use the mini-USB console port, the following equipment is needed:
• A terminal or a computer with both an RS-232 serial port and terminal emulation software
• A console cable with a male DB9 connector on one end and a mini-USB connection on the other

To connect the mini-USB console port on the switch to the computer:

• Connect the male DB9 connector on the console cable (shipped with the switch) to the RS-232 serial port on the computer running terminal emulation software, then insert the mini-USB connector into the console port on the front of the switch.

To configure the terminal emulation software as follows:

• Select the appropriate serial port (COM1 or COM2).
• Set the data rate to 115200 baud.
• Set the data format to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity.
• Set flow control to none.
• Select VT100 for Emulation mode.
• Select Terminal keys for Function, Arrow and Ctrl keys.
• To be able to view the boot procedure, the switch needs to be rebooted. The simplest way, at this stage, to reboot the switch is to unplug and re-insert the power cable from and into the power receptacle on the back of the switch. Then select an operating system to boot the switch in, either D-Link OS or ONIE.
