  1. Verify that the equipment rack has enough space to accommodate the firewall and has 1RU of space both above and below it.
  2. Align the four holes on the bottom of the device with one of the designated locations in the mounting tray.
    If installing a single PA-520-5G, you can choose between the left or right side of the tray. If installing two PA-520-5G firewalls, the two devices must be mounted side by side.
  3. Seat the firewall(s) and use four M3 Flat head screws to secure each one in place.
    One firewall
    Four M3 Flat head screws
    Two firewalls
    Eight M3 Flat head screws
  4. Place up to four power adapters (two for each firewall) in the designated locations behind the device. Loop the provided Velcro straps through the cutouts in the mounting tray, using two straps per power adapter.
  5. Connect your cables and antenna connectors to the device and route them through the mounting tray in order to minimize slack. The antenna cables can be routed differently based on your configuration. Make sure to install the provided antenna cable brackets accordingly.
    A total of four antenna cable brackets are included — two single cable brackets and two double cable brackets. When looking at the front panel of the device, the single cable bracket is used for the left (TX/RX1) connector and the double cable bracket is used for the right (GNSS and RX2) connectors.
    Install each bracket using two M3 screws through the holes in the mounting tray. The location of the brackets will vary depending on how you have chosen to orient your antenna connectors.
    After guiding the antenna cables through the brackets, secure each cable in place using the included lock washer and nut.

    Install two antenna cable brackets at the back of the rack tray, ensuring that the single and double cable brackets remain on the same sides as their connectors on the device.
  6. Wrap cable ties through the small cutouts in the tray to secure the cables in place.
  7. Install the two provided power cord routing brackets on the right and left sides of the tray. Use two M3 screws for each side (four total).
  8. Apply cable retention clamps over the power cords by slotting them into the tray.
  9. Slide the firewall (seated securely in the mounting tray) into the equipment rack.
    Make sure that you do not block any of the airflow vents on the firewall.
  10. Secure the mounting tray to the equipment rack using compatible screws.
    After installation, you should inspect the hardware on a regular basis in order to account for dust, debris, and any other obstructions that may affect the firewall's airflow.
    Do not place any items or obstructions directly above or below the firewall within the 1RU of free space.
