Install the Firewall Antennas
The PA-455-5G supports four multi-band antennas that must be installed before you install the firewall in an equipment rack.
Before installation, it is recommended that you conduct a cellular location assessment of the installation site to receive the best signal
strength.
1
Remove the SMA connector covers located on the back panel of the device.
2
Secure the antennas to the SMA connectors.
3
Rotate the antennas at 180-degree movement about the SMA connectors. Tighten the antennas by hand.
4
Adjust the antenna orientation to receive the optimal signal strength in your environment.
If installing the firewall on a flat surface, it is recommended that you orient the antennas upright and slanted slightly outwards, not
exceeding 45-degrees, to improve the signal quality.
Ensure that power cables do not cross over the antennas as this can cause signal quality distortion and antenna performance degradation.
