The RackSwitch has two hot-swap redundant 150 W AC power supplies. Each
internal power supply has an individual IEC 320 power connector on the rear panel.
The power cord attaches to a universal grounded AC power source. You can
replace a hot-swap power supply module without powering off the switch or
disrupting switch functions.

DANGER
An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous
voltage on the metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the
system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet is
correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock. (D004)
Each power supply can be connected to a separate AC circuit to mitigate the risk of
down time during a power failure. When used in a redundant configuration, the dual
power supplies have a load-sharing capability that enables each power supply to
operate at approximately 50% of full load. Using redundant power can minimize the
power disruption during a power supply failure and extend the expected lifetime of
each power supply by operating normally in a conservative power mode.
There is no power switch on the G8052; the switch unit powers up when power is
supplied through the power cords.
The Power Supply LED indicates the status of the power supplies. The LED flashes
when only one power cord is connected, and is steady when both power cords are
connected.
Switch ports
The RackSwitch G8052 switch ports and port options are described in the following
sections.

IBM System Networking RackSwitch G8052: Installation Guide
Handling static-sensitive devices
Attention: Static electricity can damage the switch and other electronic devices.
To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages
until you are ready to install them.
To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following
precautions:
v Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around
you.
v The use of a grounding system is recommended. For example, wear an
electrostatic-discharge wrist strap, if one is available.
v Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or its frame.
v Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
v Do not leave the device where others can handle and damage it.
v While the device is still in its static-protective package, touch it to an unpainted
metal part of any unpainted metal surface on a grounded rack component in the
rack in which you are installing the device, for at least 2 seconds. This drains
static electricity from the package and from your body.
v Remove the device from its package and install it directly into the switch without
setting it down. If it is necessary to set down the device, put it back into its
static-protective package. Do not place the device on a switch cover or on a
metal surface.
v Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Heating
reduces indoor humidity and increases static electricity.
Installing the RackSwitch in a standard equipment rack
This section describes how to install the RackSwitch G8052 in a standard 19-inch
equipment rack. For information about mounting the RackSwitch in other rack types,

Default configuration
The switch software contains default factory-loaded configuration files. The default
configuration is part of the software; it cannot be deleted or changed. The default
settings allow the switch to perform basic functions with minimal effort by the
system administrator. DHCP is enabled by default on the management interfaces
and BOOTP is enabled by default on interface 1. If there is no DHCP offer received,
the device uses the default Mgmt _IP address (192.168.50.50/24). This address is
overwritten when a DHCP/BOOTP address is received for that interface. If
DHCP/BOOTP is enabled and there is no static address configured for
DHCP/BOOTP requests will continue to be sent. This feature does not change
existing DHCP/BOOTP functionality. See the following initial configuration example:

After you configure the IP address for your switch and you have an existing
network connection, you can use the Telnet program from an external
management station to access and control the switch. The management station
and your switch must be on the same IP subnet.
The switch module supports a command-line interface (CLI) that you can use to
configure and control the switch over the network using the Telnet program. You
can use the CLI to perform many basic network management functions. In
addition, you can configure the switch for management using an SNMP-based
network management system or a Web browser.

Appendix A. Getting help and technical assistance
If you need help, service, or technical assistance or just want more information
about IBM products, you will find a wide variety of sources available from IBM to
assist you. Use this information to obtain additional information about IBM and IBM
products, determine what to do if you experience a problem with your IBM system
or optional device, and determine whom to call for service, if it is necessary.
Before you call
Before you call, make sure that you have taken these steps to try to solve the
problem yourself:
v Check all cables to make sure that they are connected.
v Check the power switches to make sure that the system and any optional
devices are turned on.
v Check for updated firmware and operating-system device drivers for your IBM
product at http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/. The IBM Warranty terms and
conditions state that you, the owner of the IBM product, are responsible for
maintaining and updating all software and firmware for the product (unless it is
covered by an additional maintenance contract). Your IBM service technician will
request that you upgrade your software and firmware if the problem has a
documented solution within a software upgrade.
Opening a support request
In the U.S. and Canada, hardware service and support is available 24 hours a day,
7 days a week. In the U.K., these services are available Monday through Friday,
from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
To open a support call, complete the following steps.
1. Create a brief problem description and a prioritization for your support call.
2. Gather the required product information to provide to IBM Support. The serial
number and MTM (IBM 4-digit machine identifier) are on the product label and
will help IBM Support quickly provide a solution to your problem and ensure that
you receive the level of service for which you might have contracted.
3. Gather your hardware and software maintenance agreement contract numbers,
if applicable.
4. Gather other pertinent information such as error messages and logs.
You can determine the product MTM and serial number in the following ways:
v Locate the product information labels on the bottom of the switch, see “Before
installing the RackSwitch” on page 13.
v If the firmware is at 7.6.x.x or later, you can determine the machine type model
(MTM) and serial number through the interface. For more information on locating
the MTM and serial number (VPD) through the interface, see “Configuring Vital
Product Data after a switch replacement” on page 43.
After you gather your product information, you can submit a service request in
either of two ways:
v In the U.S. and Canada, call 1-800-IBM-SERV (1-800-426-7378) to open a
hardware report. See http://www.ibm.com/planetwide/ for additional support
telephone numbers.
© Copyright IBM Corp. 2013
61
v Go to http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/Open_service_request/ to submit
an Electronic Service Request. Submitting an Electronic Service Request will
start the process of determining a solution to your problem by making the
pertinent information available to IBM Support quickly and efficiently. IBM service
technicians can start working on your solution as soon as you have completed
and submitted an Electronic Service Request.
For more information about Support Line and other IBM services, see

factors also affect application performance.
CD or DVD drive speed is the variable read rate. Actual speeds vary and are often
less than the possible maximum.
When referring to processor storage, real and virtual storage, or channel volume,
KB stands for 1024 bytes, MB stands for 1,048,576 bytes, and GB stands for
1,073,741,824 bytes.
When referring to hard disk drive capacity or communications volume, MB stands
for 1,000,000 bytes, and GB stands for 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total user-accessible
capacity can vary depending on operating environments.
Maximum internal hard disk drive capacities assume the replacement of any
standard hard disk drives and population of all hard disk drive bays with the largest
currently supported drives that are available from IBM.
Maximum memory might require replacement of the standard memory with an
optional memory module.

Particulate contamination
Attention: Airborne particulates (including metal flakes or particles) and reactive
gases acting alone or in combination with other environmental factors such as
humidity or temperature might pose a risk to the device that is described in this
document. Risks that are posed by the presence of excessive particulate levels or
concentrations of harmful gases include damage that might cause the device to
malfunction or cease functioning altogether. This specification sets forth limits for
particulates and gases that are intended to avoid such damage. The limits must not
be viewed or used as definitive limits, because numerous other factors, such as
temperature or moisture content of the air, can influence the impact of particulates
or environmental corrosives and gaseous contaminant transfer. In the absence of
specific limits that are set forth in this document, you must implement practices that
maintain particulate and gas levels that are consistent with the protection of human
health and safety. If IBM determines that the levels of particulates or gases in your
environment have caused damage to the device, IBM may condition provision of
repair or replacement of devices or parts on implementation of appropriate remedial
measures to mitigate such environmental contamination. Implementation of such
remedial measures is a customer responsibility.
