• Avoid damaging devices by following the electrostatic discharge prevention procedure.
• S5300-48M6X Hardware Installation Manual
• Put the machine box in a place where cool air can blow off the heat inside the machine box.
• Make sure the machine box is sealed.

Mounting the Switch

Connecting the Power

• Plug the AC power cord to the switch power port on the back rear.
• Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source equipment.

Connecting the RJ45 Ports

• Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port on networking equipment, such as PC, printer, server, storage, etc.
• Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to the switch RJ45 port.

Connecting the SFP+ Port

• Insert the SFP+ module into the SFP+ port.
• Plug a fiber patch cable into the SFP+ transceiver.
• Connect the other end of the fiber to the device that you want to realize data communication.

Connecting the Management Ports

Connecting the Console Port

• Prepare a console cable.
• Insert the RJ45 connector of the console cable into the console port on the switch.
• Connect the DB9 female connector on the other end of the console cable to the serial port on the computer host.

Configuring the Switch

Configuring the Switch Using the Web-based Interface

1. Connect your computer to the switch using an Ethernet cable and open a web browser.
2. Set the IP address of the computer to 192.168.0.x (where “x” is any number from 2 to 254) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.
3. Open a web browser and type http://192.168.0.2 in the address bar. Enter the default username and password (admin/admin).
4. Click sign-in to access the web-based configuration page.

Configuring the Switch Using the Console Port

1. Use the console cable to directly connect the switch console port to your computer.
2. Launch the terminal simulation software such as Hyper Terminal on the computer.
3. Configure the parameters of the terminal emulation software as follows: 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4. Enter the default username and password (admin/admin).

Troubleshooting

Hardware Fault Analysis

1. Power and cooling systems —power and fan
2. Port, cable and connection —ports on the front panel of the switch and the cables connecting these ports

Faults Relative to Power and Cooling System
Do the following checkups to help remove the fault

1. When the power on-off is at the “ON” location, check whether the fan works normally. If the fan does not work well, check the fan.
2. If the switch is too hot, check whether the air outlet and air inlet are clean and then do relative operations in section 2.3 “Requirements for Common Locations”.
3. If the switch cannot be started and the PWR indicator is off, check the power.

Faults Relative to Port, Cable and Connection
Do the following checkups to help remove the fault

1. If the port of the switch cannot be linked, check whether the cable is correctly connected and whether the peer connection is normal.
2. If the power on-off is at the “ON” location, check the power source and the power cable.
3. If the CLI port does not work after the system is started up, check whether the CLI port is set to a baud rate of 9600 bps, eight data bits, no sum check bit, one stop bit and no traffic control.
