Install the PA-5400 Series Firewall in an Equipment Rack
Learn how to install the PA-5400 Series firewall in a
standard 19-inch equipment rack.
The following procedure describes how to install the PA-5410, PA-5420, PA-5430, PA-5440
, and PA-5445
firewalls in a 19” four-post equipment rack
using the provided four-post rack kit (PAN-PA-2RU-RACK4). This kit is designed to
provide additional support for the back of the firewall.- Attach one fixed rack mount bracket to each side of the firewall. Use four #8-32 x 5/16” screws for the front four screw holes in each bracket and three #6-32 x 5/16” screws for the back three screw holes and torque each screw to 15 in-lbs.
- With help from another person, hold the firewall in the rack and secure the fixed rack mount brackets to the front rack-posts 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 each screw to 25 in-lbs. Use the provided cage nuts to secure the screws if the rack has square holes.
- Slide one adjustable rack mount bracket into each of the two previously installed fixed rack mount bracket. Secure the two adjustable rack mount brackets to the back rack-posts using two screws for each bracket (#10-32 x 3/4” or #12-24 x 1/2” screws) and torque each screw to 25 in-lbs.
