When the switch powers up it stops at the point where it says
Press any key to stop boot
It never gets past this point, which leads me to believe there is no O/S
Either that or the management port is disabled in favor of browser management if that is possible.

Have you tried to press "q" button while booting? Once you are in the boot menu, you may recover it using the backup image.
