Installing the Series 5400zl
Switches
■ The port LEDs on the switch modules go into their normal operational
mode:
• If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link LEDs
stay on and the Mode LEDs behave according to the mode selected.
In the default mode (Activity), the Mode LEDs should flicker showing
network activity on the port.
• If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs
will stay off.
5.Mount the Switch
After the modules and optional power supply are installed and you have
verified the switch passes self test, you are ready to mount the switch in a
stable location. The Series 5400zl Switches can be mounted in these ways:
■ in a rack or cabinet
■ on a horizontal surface
