Astaro Security Gateway 525
Operating Instructions
Rack mounting instructions
To mount the appliance to the rack you need the delivered rack-mount
brackets and rails. There are a variety of rack units on the market, which may
mean the assembly procedure will differ slightly. You should also refer to the
installation instructions that came with the rack unit you are using.
Because of its dimension and weight the model Astaro Security Gateway
525 is delivered with a special rail kit. The chassis package includes two rail
kits. Each kit consists of two sections: a short inner rail and a long outer rail.
The inner rail has six round holes and two fastenings. The outer rail has long
ovals.
Important note:
Make sure you use the screws supplied with the rack-mount
brackets. Using the wrong screws could damage the hardware appliance and
would invalidate your warranty.
1. Attach the rack-mount brackets to the appliance
1.1 Place the appliance on a hard flat surface with the front panel facing you.
1.2 Attach the rack-mount brackets to the left and right side of the appliance
with the supplied screws.
1.3 Make sure the brackets are properly attached to the appliance.
Important note:
The rails for Astaro Security Gateway 525 will fit a rack of
600 mm/23.6” deep.
2. Choose the rack location:
Leave enough clearance in front of the rack so that you can open the front
door completely (~60 cm/25 inches).
Leave approximately 80 cm/30 inches of clearance in the back of the rack to
allow for sufficient airflow and ease in servicing.
This product is for installation only in a restricted access location (dedicated
equipment rooms, service closets and the like).

3.1 Telescope the inner and the outer rail.
3.2 Secure the inner rail at the back side of the rack with the fastenings.

3.7 Repeat these steps for the other rail kit.
