1. Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 4000 Series.
2. Rack-mounting hardware that includes:
• Rack-mount brackets (2)
• Screws to attach brackets to the switch (8)
• Screws to attach the switch to the equipment rack (2x4)
3. Rubber footpads.
4. AC power cord. (Note: A power cord is not included for the A variant of
the switch)
5. Standard 1.5 foot (46 cm) stacking cable.
6. Documentation includes the Base software license kit, Quick Install poster,
and Regulatory documents.
Note: Field replaceable power supply already installed in the switch. Two field
replaceable power supplies are supported for models ERS 4526T-PWR+, ERS
4550T-PWR+, ERS 4826GTS, ERS 4826GTS-PWR+, ERS 4850GTS, and
ERS 4850GTS-PWR+. One power supply is already installed.
Note: Be sure to order Direct Attach cables and SFP or SFP+ Transceivers
if required.
a. (Optional) Prepare the rack
1. Provide the equivalent of one rack of vertical space for each switch in an EIA or
IEC-standard 19-inch (48.2-centimeter) equipment rack.
2. Ensure that the equipment rack is stable and securely attached to a
permanent structure.
3. Ground the rack to the same grounding electrode used by the power service in the
area. The ground path must be permanent and must not exceed 1 Ohm of
resistance from the rack to the grounding electrode. AVAYA recommends using a
filter or surge suppressor.
b. When you install the switch into a network, ensure to use
the following cables:
• Category 5E or higher specification cabling must be used for 1 Gbps/1000
Mbps operation.
• RJ-45 and DB-9 console port cables and adaptors are as follows:

AL4518004-E6 4000-SSC HiStack Stacking Cable 5m (16.4ft) for Ethernet Routing Switch
4500 or 4800 series (spare or for use as return cable for resiliency).
c. Stacking cables
Table or shelf mounting
If you are mounting the ERS 4000 switch on a table or shelf, attach the rubber feet on
the underside of the switch by placing a pad near each corner.
Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there is at least
2 inches (5.1 cm) of space on all sides for proper air flow, and at least 5 inches
(12.7 cm) at the back for power cord clearance.
1. Attach a bracket to each side of the switch.
2. Slide the switch into the rack.
3. Insert and tighten the rack-mount screws.
