Prepare to Connect Power to a PA-400R Series Firewall
Power the PA-410R , PA-410R-5G,
PA-450R-5G, , PA-455R-5G, and PA-450R firewalls with
DC power.
The following information describes how to prepare the hardware that is required to
connect power to a PA-410R or PA-410R-5G only.
On the other hand, the PA-450R, PA-455R-5G, and
PA-450R-5G ship with the equipment needed to connect power to the firewall.
When you are ready to power on the firewall, proceed to the next
step based on whether your firewall uses AC power or DC power.
- PA-410R, PA-410R-5G, PA-450R, and PA-450R-5G firewalls— Connect DC power to the firewall.
- PA-455R-5G firewall— Connect AC power to the firewall.
(PA-410R and PA-410R-5G only) Due to the various cable lengths required
for a given installation site, DC power and ground cables are not included with
the firewall. The DC terminal blocks for connecting the DC power cables to the
firewall is included in the accessories kit.
Required Hardware (PA-410R and PA-410R-5G only)
- AWG cable (minimum 8 AWG)—Use this cable for the ground cable and DC power cables.
- Dual screw ground lug—Use this lug to connect a ground cable to the screw-on ground points on the firewall.
- Cable/wire strippers—Use this tool to strip the cable shielding off the ends of the DC power and ground cables.
- Screwdrivers—Use these tools to attach the ground cable and DC power cables: use a Phillips-head screwdriver for the screw-on ground point and a small flat-head screwdriver to secure cables to the DC terminal block inputs.
Prepare for the Installation
- Read the Electrical Specifications for power requirements.(PA-410R and PA-410R-5G only) Measure and cut the DC power cables and ground cable. Ensure that the DC power cables reach from the firewall to your DC power source and that the ground cable reaches from the firewall to your ground location.You will need one ground cable and two DC cables (one for the positive connection and one for the negative connection). To provide power redundancy for the firewall, prepare two additional DC power cables to connect the second set of DC power inputs.
