DCN LAN Switch
Introduction
This Installation and Configuration Instruction describes how to install the DCN
LAN Switch (DLS) in a 19” rack and how to set up, configure and maintain
the DLS.
The DLS is a wide-range powered 8-port Ethernet switch with support for
power-over-Ethernet (PoE) on one port. The DLS is intended to be used to
connect devices on a local site LAN to the DCN via, for example, the NPU of a
MINI-LINK TN node.
The DLS can be manually configured in a flexible way to support various
Ethernet communication modes.

2 Safety Instructions
2.1 Introduction
This section describes the system used for presenting safety information.
Note: Reduce the risk of accidents by studying all the instructions carefully
before you start working. Should questions arise regarding the
safety instructions, contact your supervisor or your local Ericsson
representative.
The relevant manual (including this safety information) and specific instructions
supplied by Ericsson must be followed in any work performed on Ericsson
products or systems. Sufficient knowledge of English or of any other language,
in which the manuals or instructions are available, is necessary to perform the
tasks in the manual in a correct and safe way.
The safety information in the relevant manuals presupposes that any person
performing work on Ericsson products or systems has the education, training
and competence required to perform the task correctly. For certain tasks
additional or special training might be required. For more precise information on
the amount and content of the general and/or special training required to work
on Ericsson products or systems, please contact the local Ericsson company.
Ericsson does not take any responsibility for either personal injury or damage to
tangible property that is caused by work performed on Ericsson products and
systems in conflict with the safety instructions set out in this manual.

Safety Instructions
2.4 Safety Symbols and Definitions
This section shows the method used for presenting safety information.
2.4.1 Danger, Warning and Caution
The following three levels, shown in order of urgency, are used.
Danger!
Danger means that an accident may occur if the safety precautions are
neglected. This type of accident is likely to be fatal.
Warning!
Warning means that an accident may occur if the safety precautions are
neglected. This type of accident may be fatal or can cause serious injury.
Caution!
Caution means that an accident may occur if the safety precautions are
neglected. This type of accident may cause minor injury or damage to tangible
property.
2.4.2 Notes
Note: Notes are used to call to the attention of the reader key points that
might otherwise be overlooked.
2.4.3 Electrostatic Discharge
Figure 2 ESD symbol
1531-BFB 109 002/1 Uen A 2007-10-17 7
DCN LAN Switch
The Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) symbol indicates when external ESD
protection must be used to avoid possible damage to the equipment.
Electrical charges are generated by friction when a body moves, rubs against
clothes, slides against a chair, when shoes rub against the floor, and when you
handle ordinary plastics, etc. Such charges may remain for a considerable
period of time.
Handling of Printed Board Assemblies and IC Components
Always use an approved antistatic bracelet to avoid damage to components
mounted on printed board assemblies. The ESD wrist strap contains a resistor
with an ohmic value greater than 1 M in the cable to protect the operator. The
resistance value is low enough to discharge the electrostatic voltage. Never
replace the cable with any other cable. The ESD wrist strap must be connected
to earth.
Storing and Transporting Printed Board Assemblies and IC Components
Use the original packaging. If this is not available, use a conductive material,
or a special IC carrier that either short-circuits or insulates all leads of the
components.
