that the rack is adequate for the application.
• 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.
• Route cables away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures, and sources
of noise such as radios, transmitters, and broadband amplifiers.
• This product is not intended to be installed and used in a home or public area
accessible to the general population. When installed in schools, this equipment

• Mount in a location away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. A maximum
ambient temperature of 104º F (40º C) is recommended.
• If installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature
of the rack environment may be greater than the room ambient. Therefore,
consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment
compatible with the maximum recommended ambient temperature.
• Mount the Dell SonicWALL appliances evenly in the rack in order to prevent a
hazardous condition caused by uneven mechanical loading.
• 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.
• A suitably rated and approved branch circuit breaker shall be provided as part of
the building installation. Follow local code when purchasing materials or
components.
• Consideration must be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings must be used
when addressing this concern. Do not overload the circuit.
• Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment must be maintained. Particular
attention must be given to power supply connections other than direct
connections to the branch circuits, such as power strips.

be provided by building or rack installation.
• Do not connect AC configured products to DC mains, and do not connect DC
configured products to AC. Detailed instructions are provided with the DC
conversion kit. Product must be configured as all DC or all AC.
• DC rating includes tolerances. Do not operate product outside of range shown
