Installing the firewall in a standard 19-inch rack
WARNING!
To avoid bodily injury and device damage, use a minimum of two persons to rack-mount the firewall.
CAUTION:
•
For adequate heat dissipation, ensure a minimum clearance of 80 mm (3.15 in) around the air
inlet and outlet vents of the chassis and a distance of 1U (44.45 mm, or 1.75 in) between the
chassis and other devices in the rack.
•
As a best practice, use a rack shelf together with the mounting brackets to support the weight of
the chassis.

1.
Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure the wrist strap makes good skin contact and is reliably
grounded.
2.
Unpack the firewall and accessories.
