Installing the Appliance
WARNING: The following conditions are required for proper installation:
1. The SonicWall appliance is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack mount cabinet.
2. Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer and ensure that the rack is adequate
for the application.
3. Ensure that no water or excessive moisture can enter the unit.
4. Allow unrestricted airflow around the unit and through the vents on the side of the unit. A minimum of 1
inch (25.44mm) clearance is recommended.
5. Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and sources of noise such as radios,
transmitters, and broadband amplifiers.
6. Install in a location away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. A maximum ambient temperature of
104º F (40º C) is recommended.
7. If installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than the room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature.
8. Mount the SonicWall appliances evenly in the rack in order to prevent a hazardous condition caused by
uneven mechanical loading.
9. Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design, must be used and hand-tightened to ensure
secure installation. Choose a mounting location where all four mounting holes line up with those of the
mounting bars of the 19-inch rack mount cabinet.
10. A suitably rated and approved branch circuit breaker shall be provided as part of the building installation.
Follow local code when purchasing materials or components.
11. Consideration must be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings must be used when addressing this concern. Do not
overload the circuit.
12. This equipment must be grounded. The power cord for the product should be connected to a socket or
outlet with earthing connection. Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment must be maintained.
Particular attention must be given to power supply connections other than direct connections to the branch
circuits, such as power strips.
