• Reset Switch
Erases the firmware and resets the SonicWALL to its factory clean state. This can be necessary
if you forget the administrator password or the firmware has become corrupt.
• Serial Port
DB-9 RS-232 Serial port for Command Line Interface support.
• (2) Twisted Pair (10Base-T, 100Base-T) Ethernet Ports
(2) Auto switching 10Mbps/100Mbps Ethernet ports provide connectivity for both Ethernet and
Fast Ethernet networks. The Ethernet ports connect the SonicWALL to the LAN and WAN using
Twisted Pair cable with RJ45 connectors.
• Power Input
Connects to the external power supply which is provided with the SonicWALL SOHO3 and the
SonicWALL TELE3. The use of an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is recommended to
protect against damage or loss of data due to electrical storms, power failures, or power surges.
• Cooling Vents
The SonicWALL is convection cooled; an internal fan is not necessary. Do not block the cooling
vents on the SonicWALL SOHO3 or the TELE3 side panels.
