Learn how to install the PA-5200 Series firewall in a
two-post or four-post equipment rack.
The following procedure describes how to install
the PA-5200 Series firewall in a two-post or four-post equipment
rack.
When installing the firewall
in a two-post equipment rack, ensure that the rack is properly anchored
and can support the weight of the installed equipment.
- Attach one rack-mount bracket to each side of the firewall using nine #8-32 x 5/16” screws for each bracket and torque to 15 in-lbs. For a two-post rack, we recommend you install the front brackets in the mid-mount position as shown. You can also install the brackets in the front-mount position if you Install the Four-Post Rack Kit on a PA-5200 Series Firewall.
- With help from two other people, hold the firewall in place in the rack and secure the rack-mount brackets to the rack using four screws for each bracket. Use the appropriate screws (#10-32 x 3/4” or #12-24 x 1/2”) for your rack and torque to 25 in-lbs. Use cage nuts (not provided) to secure the screws if the rack has square holes.
