Preparing for installation

This chapter includes these sections:

• Safety recommendations

• Examining the installation site

• Installation tools

• Accessories supplied by the firewall

• Checklist before installation

Safety recommendations

Safety symbols

When reading this document, note the following symbols:

WARNING means an alert that calls attention to important information that if not understood or

followed can result in personal injury.

CAUTION means an alert that calls attention to important information that if not understood or

followed can result in data loss, data corruption, or damage to hardware or software.

General safety recommendations

• Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walk areas.

• Make sure that the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.

• Unplug all the external cables (including power cords) before moving the chassis.

Safety with electricity

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation. Shut the power off at once in

case accident occurs.

• Make sure that the firewall has been correctly grounded.

• Do not open or close the chassis cover when the firewall is powered on.

• Use an uninterrupted power supply (UPS).

• If there are two power inputs, disconnect the two power inputs to power off the firewall.

• Do not work alone when the firewall has power.

• Always check that the power has been disconnected.

Safety with laser

• Do not stare into the optical port or fiber connector because the laser light emitted from the optical

fiber may hurt your eyes.

• Install a dust plug on the transceiver module to avoid damage to the transceiver module.

Safety with firewall moving

When moving an A-F5000 firewall, note the following guidelines:

• When moving the firewall, hold the handles at both sides of the chassis.

• Use at least two persons to move the firewall.

• Move the firewall carefully.

CAUTION:

Do not hold the handle of the fan tray or power supply, the handle of the rear cover of the chassis, or the air vents of chassis. Any attempt to carry the firewall with these parts may cause equipment damage or even bodily injury.

Examining the installation site

The A-F5000 firewall can only be used indoors. To ensure that the firewall works properly and to prolong its service lifetime, the installation site must meet the following requirements:

• Temperature and humidity

• Altitude

• Cleanness

• Cooling system

• ESD prevention

• EMI

• Lightning protection

• Rack-mounting

Temperature and humidity

You must maintain a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Long-term high humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property changes, and metal corrosion. However, if the humidity is too low, captive screws may become loose as the result of contraction of insulation washers and static electricity may be produced in a dry environment to jeopardize the circuits on the device. A high temperature is the most undesirable condition, because it accelerates the aging of insulation materials and significantly lowers reliability and service life of the firewall.

Before installing the firewall to a rack, install the front mounting brackets to the two sides of the firewall.

Figure 16 Install the front mounting brackets to the two sides of the firewall

Installing the firewall to the rack

Follow these steps to install the firewall to the rack:

1. Put the firewall on the rack shelf, slide the firewall, and align the screw holes on the mounting

brackets with the cage nuts on the rack.

2. Fix the firewall horizontally by fastening the mounting brackets to the rack with appropriate pan

head screws. The specifications of pan head screws must satisfy the installation requirements, and rustproof treatment has been made to their surfaces.

Figure 17 Fix the firewall to the rack

Grounding the firewall

WARNING!

Correctly connecting the firewall grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.

Follow these steps to connect the grounding cable:

1. Remove the grounding screw from the rear panel of the firewall chassis.

2. Attach the grounding screw to the OT terminal of the grounding cable.

3. Use a screwdriver to fasten the grounding screw into the grounding screw hole.

4. Connect the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding strip of the rack.

Figure 18 Connect the grounding cable to the grounding hole of firewall

NOTE:

To guarantee the grounding effect, use the grounding cable provided with the firewall to connect to the grounding strip as long as possible.

Installing an MPU

NOTE:

• The A-F5000 supports only one MPU, which must be installed in slot 0.

• Typically the firewall does not provide a filler panel for slot 0 when it is shipped because you must install

an MPU to the slot for the firewall to operate.

Follow these steps to install an MPU:

1. Gently push the MPU along the slide rails into the slot and then push the ejector levers inward to

lock the MPU in position.

Figure 19 Insert the MPU into slot

2. Fasten the captive screws on the MPU with a Phillips screwdriver.

3. After the firewall is powered on, the RUN LED flashes fast (at 8 Hz). It flashes slowly (at 1 Hz) after

the application is loaded. This means that the MPU runs properly. For the LED description, see the chapter “Appendix B LEDs.”

Installing an interface module

NOTE:

• An interface module can only be installed in slot 1, 2, 3, or 4.

• You must install an MPU and at least one interface module for the firewall to operate properly.

• Typically the firewall does not provide a filler panel for one of the interface module slots when it is

shipped.

The procedures for installing interface modules are the same. The following uses an NSQ1GT8C40 as an example.

Follow these steps to install an interface module:

1. Remove the filler panel (if any) from the slot you want to install an interface module: use a Phillips

screwdriver to loosen the captive screws on the filler panel until all spring pressure is released, and then remove the filler panel.

2. Push the interface module along the guide rails into the slot until it touches the slot bottom, and then

push the ejector levers inward to lock the interface module in position.

Figure 20 Insert an interface module

3. Fasten the captive screws on the interface module with a Phillips screwdriver.

4. After the firewall is powered on, the RUN LED flashes once and then flashes fast (at 8 Hz). It flashes

slowly (at 1 Hz) after the application is loaded. This means that the interface module runs properly. For more information of the interface module LEDs, see the chapter “Appendix B LEDs.”

NOTE:

• If there is a great resistance when you push an interface module into a slot, first remove the filler

panels above and below the slot, then install the interface module. Install the removed filler panels to prevent dust from entering the chassis.

• If slots 1 through 4 of the A-F5000 are all installed with interface modules, the interface modules are

powered on in the sequence of slot 1, slot 2, slot 3, and slot 4, with RUN LEDs lighting up in turn.

Installing a fan tray

Follow these steps to install a fan tray:

1. Gently push the fan tray slowly along the slide rails into the slot until it touches the slot bottom.

Figure 21 Push the fan tray into the slot

2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screws on the fan tray.

3. After the firewall is powered on, the RUN LED of the fan tray is steady on. This means that the fan

tray runs properly. For the LED description of the fan tray, see the chapter “Appendix B LEDs.”

Installing a CF card

Follow these steps to install a CF card:

1. Push the CF card eject button all the way into the slot, and make sure that the button does not

project from the panel.

2. Insert the CF card into the slot following the direction shown in Figure 22, and make sure it does

not project from the slot.

Figure 22 Insert the CF card into the slot

Installing an air filter (optional)

NOTE:

You must install the air filter before you install the mounting brackets.

The air filter of the A-F5000 is installed at the air intake vents on the left of the chassis (when you face the front panel of the chassis) to prevent dust from entering the chassis.

Follow these steps to install an air filter:

1. Install the upper and lower slide rails to the chassis: use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the screws

on the slide rails, as shown in Figure 23.

Figure 23 Install the air filter slide rail

2. Push the air filter along the slide rails into the chassis.

Figure 24 Insert the air filter into the slide rails

3. Fasten the captive screws on the air filter with a Phillips screwdriver.
