Dell EMC Z9264F-ON Setup Guide

Switch ground
Dell EMC recommends grounding your switch. Use the Z9264F-ON switch in a CBN.
For more information, see Ground cable.
Fans and airow
Fan installation is done as part of the factory install based on stock keeping unit (SKU) type.
The Z9264F-ON switch has SKUs that support the following congurations:
• AC PSU with fan airow from the I/O to the PSU—normal
• AC PSU with fan airow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse
• DC fan unit with airow from the I/O to the PSU—normal
• DC fan unit with fan airow from the PSU to the I/O—reverse
Be sure to order the fans suitable to support your site’s ventilation. Use a single type of
airow fan in your switch. Do not mix reverse and normal airows in a single switch.
For proper ventilation, position the switch in an equipment rack or cabinet with a minimum
of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the exhaust vents. The fan speed varies based on
internal temperature monitoring. The switch never intentionally turns o the fans.
Power
Connect the switch to the applicable power source using the appropriate power cable. An
AC power cable is included with the switch.
When installing AC or DC switches, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, where applicable.
The switch is powered-up when the power cable is connected between the switch and the
power source.
CAUTION
: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power supply
slots. The switch has multiple power cords. Before servicing, ensure all power cords
are disconnected.
