Table 2.1 Switch Configurations Descriptions
2.2 Setting Up Your Network
The switching system uses IP addresses to uniquely identify the switch and the target devices. The
switch family supports both Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and static IP addressing.
Vertiv™ recommends that IP addresses be reserved for each switch and that they remain static while the
switches are connected to the network.
For additional information on setting up the MergePoint Unity™ switch for Dell using the DSView™
software, and for information on how the MergePoint Unity switch for Dell uses TCP/IP, see the DSView™
Management Software Installer/User Guide.
2.3 Connecting the Switch Hardware
NOTE: A patch panel is not recommended as a connection point between the appliance and an IQ
module because it can cause distance, power or video quality control feature issues. If the issues are
still present when the patch panel is removed, contact Technical Support.
To connect and turn on your switch:
NOTE: To avoid potential video and/or keyboard problems when using Vertiv™ products: If the
building has 3-phase AC power, ensure that the computer and monitor are on the same phase. For best
results, they should be on the same circuit.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment:
- Do not disable the power grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature.
- Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
- Disconnect the power from the product by unplugging the power cord from either the
electrical outlet or the product.
- The AC inlet is the main disconnect for removing power to this product. For products that
have more than one AC inlet, to remove power completely, all AC line cords must be
disconnected.
- This product has no user serviceable parts inside the product enclosure. Do not open or
remove product cover.
