10 Getting Started Guide

Switch Ports

The N2024/N2024P front panel provides 24 Gigabit Ethernet

(10/100/1000BASE-T) RJ-45 ports that support auto-negotiation for speed,

flow control, and duplex. The N2024/N2024P models support two SFP+ 10G

ports. Dell-qualified SFP+ transceivers are sold separately.

The N2048/N2048P front panel provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet (10BASE-T,

100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T) RJ-45 ports that support auto-negotiation for

speed, flow control, and duplex. The N2048/N2048P support two SFP+ 10G

ports. Dell-qualified SFP+ transceivers are sold separately.

The front-panel switch ports have the following characteristics:

• The switch automatically detects the difference between crossed and

straight-through cables on RJ-45 ports and automatically chooses the MDI

or MDIX configuration to match the other end.

• SFP ports support Dell-qualified transceivers.

• RJ-45 ports support full-duplex mode 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds on

standard Category 5 UTP cable.

• SFP+ ports support SFP+ transceivers and SFP+ copper twin-ax

technology plus SFP transceivers operating at 1G.

• The N2024P/N2048P front panel ports support PoE (15.4W) and PoE+

(30W).

Console Port

The console port provides serial communication capabilities, which allows

communication using RS-232 protocol. The serial port provides a direct

connection to the switch and allows access to the CLI from a console

terminal connected to the port through the provided serial cable (with RJ45

YOST to female DB-9 connectors).

The console port is separately configurable and can be run as an asynchronous

link from 1200 baud to 115,200 baud.

The Dell CLI only supports changing the speed. The defaults are 9600 baud

rate, 8 data bits, No Parity, 1 Stop Bit, No Flow Control.

Getting Started Guide 11

USB Port

The Type-A, female USB port supports a USB 2.0-compliant flash memory

drive. The Dell Networking switch can read or write to a flash drive formatted

as FAT-32. You can use a USB flash drive to copy switch configuration files

and images between the USB flash drive and the switch. You can also use the

USB flash drive to move and copy configuration files and images from one

switch to other switches in the network.

The USB port does not support any other type of USB device.

Reset Button

The reset button is accessed through the pinhole and allows you to perform a

hard reset on the switch. To use the reset button, insert an unbent paper clip

or similar tool into the pinhole. When the switch completes the boot process

after the reset, it resumes operation with the most recently saved

configuration. Any changes made to the running configuration that were not

saved to the startup configuration prior to the reset are lost.

Port and System LEDs

The front panel contains light emitting diodes (LEDs) that indicate the

status of port links, power supplies, fans, stacking, and the overall system

status.

For information about the status that the LEDs indicate, see the User’s

Configuration Guide.

Stack Master LED and Stack Number Display

When a switch within a stack is the master unit, the stack master LED, which

is labeled M, is solid green. If the M LED is off, the stack member is not the

master unit. The Stack No. panel displays the unit number for the stack

member. If a switch is not part of a stack (in other words, it is a stack of one

switch), the M LED is illuminated, and the unit number is displayed.

N20xx Series Installation

Site Preparation

N20xx Series switches can be mounted in a standard 48.26 cm (19-inch) rack

or placed on a flat surface.

Make sure that the chosen installation location meets the following site

requirements:

•

Power

— The switch is installed near an easily accessible 100–240 VAC,

50–60 Hz outlet.

•

Clearance

— There is adequate front and rear clearance for operator

access. Allow clearance for cabling, power connections, and ventilation.

•

Cabling

— The cabling is routed to avoid sources of electrical noise such

as radio transmitters, broadcast amplifiers, power lines, and fluorescent

lighting fixtures.

•

Ambient Temperature

— The ambient switch operating temperature

range is 0 to 45ºC (32 to 113ºF) at a relative humidity of up to 95 percent,

non-condensing.

NOTE: Decrease the maximum temperature by 1°C (1.8°F) per 300 m (985 ft.) above

900m (2955 ft.).

•

Relative Humidity

— The operating relative humidity is 8% to 85%

(noncondensing) with a maximum humidity gradation of 10% per hour.

Getting Started Guide 15

Unpacking the N20xx Switch

Package Contents

When unpacking each switch, make sure that the following items are

included:

• One Dell Networking switch

• One RJ-45 to DB-9 female cable

• One rack-mount kit (N20xx) for rack installation, two mounting brackets,

bolts, and cage nuts

• One set of self-adhesive rubber pads for the free-standing switch (four pads

are included)

Unpacking Steps

NOTE: Before unpacking the switch, inspect the container and immediately report

any evidence of damage.

1

Place the container on a clean, flat surface and cut all straps securing the

container.

2

Open the container or remove the container top.

3

Carefully remove the switch from the container and place it on a secure

and clean surface.

4

Remove all packing material.

5

Inspect the product and accessories for damage.

Rack Mounting a N20xx Switch

WARNING: Read the safety information in the Safety and Regulatory Information

as well as the safety information for other switches that connect to or support the

switch.

The AC power connector is on the back panel of the switch.

Installing in a Rack

WARNING: Do not use rack mounting kits to suspend the switch from under a

table or desk, or attach it to a wall.

16 Getting Started Guide

CAUTION: Disconnect all cables from the switch before continuing. Remove all

self-adhesive pads from the underside of the switch, if they have been attached.

CAUTION: When mounting multiple switches into a rack, mount the switches

from the bottom up.

1

Place the supplied rack-mounting bracket on one side of the switch,

ensuring that the mounting holes on the switch line up to the mounting

holes in the rack-mounting bracket. Figure 1-7 illustrates where to mount

the brackets.

Figure 1-7. Attaching the Brackets

2

Insert the supplied bolts into the rack-mounting holes and tighten with a

screwdriver.

3

Repeat the process for the rack-mounting bracket on the other side of the

switch.

4

Insert the switch into the 48.26 cm (19 inch) rack, ensuring that the rack-

mounting holes on the switch line up to the mounting holes in the rack.

5

Secure the switch to the rack with either the rack bolts or cage nuts and

cage-nut bolts with washers (depending on the kind of rack you have).

Fasten the bolts on bottom before fastening the bolts on top.

CAUTION: Make sure that the supplied rack bolts fit the pre-threaded holes in the

rack.

NOTE: Make sure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.

Getting Started Guide 17

Installing as a Free-standing Switch

NOTE: We strongly recommend mounting the switch in a rack.

Install the switch on a flat surface if you are not installing it in a rack. The

surface must be able to support the weight of the switch and the switch

cables. The switch is supplied with four self-adhesive rubber pads.

1

Attach the self-adhesive rubber pads on each location marked on the

bottom of the switch.

2

Set the switch on a flat surface, and make sure that it has proper

ventilation by leaving 5 cm (2 inches) on each side and 13 cm (5 inches) at

the back.

Stacking Multiple N20xx Switches

You can stack N20xx switches up to 12 switches high using the mini-SAS

ports located on the rear of the switch. N20xx switches support stacking only

with other N20xx series switches. When multiple switches are connected

together through the stack ports, they operate as a single unit with up to 576

front panel ports. The stack operates and is managed as a single entity.

NOTE: If you are installing a stack of switches, you need to assemble and cable the

stack before powering up and configuring it. When a stack is powered up for the

first time, the switches elect a Master Switch, which may occupy any location in

the stack. The Master LED on the front panel is illuminated on the master unit.

Creating a Switch Stack

Create a stack by connecting adjacent units using the mini-SAS stacking

ports on the back panel of the switch. Figure 1-8 on page 18 shows the

switches connected in a ring topology, which is the recommended topology

for a stack.

1

Connect one of the mini-SAS cables into either of the stacking ports of the

top switch and the switch directly below it.

If necessary, use a separately purchased, longer (1 meter or 3 meter) mini-

SAS cable to connect the switches.

2

Repeat this process until all of the devices are connected.

3

Use the remaining stacking cable to connect the two remaining stacking

ports together so that a ring topology is assembled.

18 Getting Started Guide

Figure 1-8. Connecting a Stack of Switches

The stack in Figure 1-8 is connected in a ring topology and has the following

physical connections between the switches:

• The bottom mini-SAS port on Unit 1 is connected to the top mini-SAS

port on Unit 2.

• The bottom mini-SAS port on Unit 2 is connected to the top mini-SAS

port on Unit 3.

• The bottom mini-SAS port on Unit 3 is connected to the top mini-SAS

port on Unit 1.
