WARNING:To be NEBS-compliant:
  • Locate your switch in a restricted-access area were only trained personnel are allowed access.
  • Install and connect your switch to the common bonding network (CBN).
  • You can also install and connect your switch to the central office.
  • Connect the battery returns of your switch as DC-I.
  • Use a shielded and grounded cable at both ends of the management port.
  • Ground your switch using a copper ground conductor.
  • Clean and coat all bare grounding connection points on your switch with an antioxidant solution before making connections.
  • Bring all unplated ground connection surfaces on your switch to a bright finish and treat them with an antioxidant solution before making connections.
  • To ensure electrical continuity, remove any nonconductive surfaces from the ground connection points and threaded holes that are used to secure the ground lugs.
  • Use the two-hole, Listed, compression-type lug with an AWG 14 gauge wire for switch grounding.
  • Dell Technologies recommends changing the front air filter every three months, depending on the switch environment (if applicable).
NOTE:If you install and connect the switches to a commercial AC power source, you must connect the switch to an external surge protection device (SPD).
