AC Power Adapter
The AC power adapter supplies power for the Firebox. The power supply connector has a screw-type retention
mechanism. To prevent a disruption in the power supply, tighten the screw on the connector.
Before you connect the adapter, verify that the color band on the cord matches the color ring around the
power plug on the Firebox.
To safely connect the power supply:
Insert the silver connector on the power cord into the power port on the Firebox. Tighten the screw
until the connector is securely attached to the Firebox.
A Firebox T45-CW shipped outside the United States has a power adapter with blades, and includes four power
plugs to connect to the AC power adapter. Use the correct power plug for the power source used in your
country.
The AC power cord is only for WatchGuard products, and not usable for other equipment.
Cooling Fan
The Firebox T45-CW has an internal cooling fan to decrease the internal temperature of the device.
The fan is designed to start at boot time and run continuously at low speed to maintain an optimal
temperature.
When the temperature rises, and the CPU temperature exceeds 85°C, the fan switches to high speed.
When the CPU temperature drops to 75°C, the fan speed decreases to low speed.
The Firebox shuts down if the CPU temperature is greater than 100°C.
Wall Mount the Firebox
In some environments, you might want to mount the Firebox on a wall to improve the wireless range.
You can use the holes on the bottom of the Firebox to mount the device to a wall with appropriate screws and
anchors (not included).
(Maximum screw head diameter 8mm / 0.315in, maximum thread diameter 3.8mm / 0.15in)
