WatchGuard Firebox T55/T55-W Hardware Guide
A retention mechanism prevents accidental disconnection of the power cord. Before
you unplug the power adapter, disengage the retention mechanism to avoid
damaging the cord. Always pull from the connector and not the cord.
There are two types of AC power adapters for the Firebox T55/T55-W. You will receive either the
rectangular adapter or the round adapter with your Firebox. Both types of adapters have a positive retention
system to prevent accidental disconnection. To safely disconnect the cord:
n
For the round adapter, slide the black plastic external housing away from the Firebox to expose the
internal silver metal connector. With the internal silver connector exposed, continue to pull to
disconnect the cord. The power cord and the power plug on the Firebox are color coded. Verify that the
color band on the cord matches the color ring around the power plug on the Firebox before you connect
the adapter.
n
For the rectangular adapter, press the button on top of the connector to release the connector and pull
from the base of the connector. Pulling from the cord could damage the adapter.
A Firebox shipped outside the U.S. includes four power cables to connect to the AC power adapter. Use the
correct power cable for the power source used in your country.
Do not connect this power adapter to any other WatchGuard product.
Wall Mounting Plate
The wall mounting plate (available separately) enables you to mount the Firebox on a wall in a good location
to increase the wireless range.
