PA-5400 Series Firewall Installation

Learn how to rack the PA-5400 Series firewalls, install the front slot cards, and set up the necessary cable connections.
The PA-5400 Series firewalls ship with racking equipment and cables that enable you to install the firewall in your deployment environment.
The PA-5450 in particular is a modular system that requires you to install several components, such as network cards, during the installation process. Due to the weight of the firewalls, we recommend that you first install the firewall appliance into the rack and then install the front slot cards. After the firewall is installed in the rack (with all components installed), connect power, verify that the front slot cards are functioning, and then connect network and management cables.
A PA-5450 with front slot cards, fan assemblies, and power supplies installed should not be moved or shipped. Moving or shipping the firewall after assembly will void the product warranty. The PA-5450 firewall and its modules should be shipped in separate boxes.
