WatchGuard XTM 1050
Hardware Specifications
Rack Mount Instructions
Each WatchGuard XTM 1050 device ships with a 29” rack mount kit and a set of installation instructions. When
you install the XTM 1050 in a rack, make sure you consider:
Elevated Operating Ambient Temperature
If you install the XTM 1050 in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. The XTM 1050 is certified
to operate correctly between 32–104°F or 0–40°C.
Reduced Air Flow
When you install the XTM 1050 in a rack, make sure that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
When you mount the XTM 1050 in the rack, avoid hazardous conditions caused by uneven
mechanical loading.
Circuit Overloading
Make sure you connect the XTM 1050 to the power supply circuit in such a way that there is no
overloading of the circuits, and no impact on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Reliable Grounding
Make sure all rack-mounted equipment is correctly grounded. For example, make sure you use power
strips instead of direct connections to the branch circuit.
