Mounting the SonicWALL CDP 6080

The SonicWALL CDP appliance is designed to be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack mount cabinet. The following conditions are required for proper installation:

•Use the mounting hardware recommended by the rack manufacturer and ensure that the rack is adequate for the application.

•Four mounting screws, compatible with the rack design, must be used and hand tightened to ensure secure installation. Choose a mounting location where all four mounting holes line up with those of the mounting bars of the 19-inch, rack mount cabinet.

•Mount in a location away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. An ambient temperature of 104º F (40º C) is the maximum allowed.

•Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and sources of noise such as radios, transmitters, and broadband amplifiers.

•As shipped from the factory this SonicWALL product includes two power supplies for redundant AC power and added reliability. A field conversion is available to convert to DC mains.

•The included power cord is intended for use in North America AC mains installation only. For European Union (EU) customers, and DC mains, a power cord is not included.

•Ensure that no water or excessive moisture can enter the unit.

•Allow unrestricted airflow around the unit and through the vents on the side of the unit. A minimum of 1 inch (25.44mm) clearance is recommended.

•If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature shown above.

•Mount the SonicWALL appliances evenly in the rack in order to prevent a hazardous condition caused by uneven mechanical loading.

•Consideration must be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit. The effect of overloading the circuits has minimal impact on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings must be used when addressing this concern.
