instructions.
NOTE: The firewall must be running Junos OS Release 12.1X44-D10 or later in order to use
high-capacity AC or DC power supplies.
NOTE: The device is not shipped with AC power cords. Make sure to order or obtain AC power
cords with a plug appropriate for your geographical location.
1. Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to
