entering the firewall chassis.
•
Ensure good ventilation of the equipment room and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the
firewall free of obstruction.
•
Make sure the operating voltage is in the required range.
•
Use a screwdriver, rather than your fingers, to fasten screws.
•
Stack devices according to the sizes of and packing symbols on the packages.

Electrical safety
•
Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power
extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
•
Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation. Shut the power off at
once in case accident occurs.
•
Do not work alone when the firewall has power.
•
Always verify that the power has been disconnected.
Laser safety
WARNING
!
Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light. Do not stare into
beams or view directly with optical instruments when the firewall is operating.
•
Before you disconnect the fiber connector, execute the shutdown command in interface view
to disable the optical source.
•
Install dust caps to disconnected optical fiber connectors and ports on disconnected transceiver
modules to avoid damage caused by built-up dust.
•
Insert a dust plug into empty fiber ports.
Handling safety
When you move the firewall, follow these guidelines:
•
Move and unpack the firewall carefully to avoid firewall damage.
•
Unpack the firewall at least half an hour and power on the firewall at least two hours after you
move it from a place below 0°C (32°F) to the equipment room. This prevents condensation and
even damage to the firewall.
•
Use a safety hand truck when you move multiple firewalls.
•
Before you move the firewall, remove all cables and mounting brackets.

3
•
For long-distance transportation, remove all the removable components, such as power
supplies and interface modules, and package them separately, and install the filler panels
supplied with the firewall. For short-distance transportation, make sure all the removable
components are securely seated in the slots and the screws are fastened.
•
When you move or lift the firewall chassis, support the bottom of the chassis, rather than
holding any removable component. Make sure the accessories of the firewall are not lost or
damaged during firewall moving.
Examining the installation site
The firewall can only be used indoors. To make sure the firewall operates correctly and to prolong its
service lifetime, the installation site must meet the following requirements.
Weight support
Make sure the floor can support the total weight of the rack, chassis, modules, and all other
components. For more information, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
Temperature and humidity
Maintain appropriate temperature and humidity in the equipment room.
•
Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical
property change of materials, and metal corrosion.
•
Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and bring problems
including loose captive screws and circuit failure.
•
High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the
reliability and lifespan of the firewall.
For the temperature and humidity requirements of the firewall, see Table1-1.
Table1-1 Temperature/humidity requirements
Temperature
Relative humidity
•Operating:
Without drives: 0°C to 45°C (32°F
to 113°F)
With drives: 5°C to 40°C (41°F to
104°F)
•Storage: –40°C to +70°C (–40°F to
+158°F)
•Operating:
Without drives: 5% to 95%, noncondensing
With drives: 10% to 90%, noncondensing
•Storage: 5% to 95%, noncondensing
Cleanliness
Dust buildup on the chassis might result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of
metal components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst
case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.

Cooling system
For adequate cooling of the firewall, follow these guidelines:
•
Install the firewall at the installation site with its airflow direction meeting the ventilation
requirements.
Workbench mounting—Ensure a minimum clearance of 100 mm (3.94 in) around the air
inlet and outlet vents of the chassis.
19-inch rack mounting—Ensure a minimum clearance of 80 mm (3.15 in) around the air
inlet and outlet vents of the chassis and a distance of 1U (44.45 mm, or 1.75 in) between the
chassis and other devices.
•
Make sure the installation site has a good cooling system.
The F1000-AI-03 firewall uses passive cooling.
The F1000-AI-10 firewall provides front side-intake and rear side-exhaust airflow for heat dissipation.
The F1000-AI-20, F1000-AI-30, F1000-AI-50, F1000-AI-60, F1000-AI-70, F1000-AI-80, and
F1000-AI-90 firewalls provide left side-intake and right side-exhaust airflow for heat dissipation.

ESD prevention
To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), follow these guidelines:
•
Make sure the firewall, the workbench, and the rack are reliably grounded.
•
Take dust-proof measures for the equipment room. For more information, see "Cleanliness."
•
Maintain the humidity and temperature at an acceptable level. For more information, see
"Temperature and humidity."
•
Put the removed interface modules away on an ESD workbench, with the PCB upward, or put
them in ESD bags for future use.
•
Always wear ESD clothing, ESD gloves, and an ESD wrist strap.
EMI
All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the firewall and application
system, adversely affect the firewall in the following ways:
•
A conduction pattern of capacitance coupling.
•
Inductance coupling.
•
Electromagnetic wave radiation.
•
Common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling.
To prevent EMI, use the following guidelines:
•
If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE)
to filter interference from the power grid.
•
Keep the firewall far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency
devices.
•
Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.
•
To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning
strikes, route interface cables only indoors. If part of the network cable of an Ethernet port must
be routed outdoors, connect a lightning arrester to the cable before you plug the cable into the
port.
Lightning protection
To protect the firewall from lightning better, follow these guidelines:
•
Make sure the grounding cable of the chassis is reliably grounded.
•
Make sure the grounding terminal of the AC power receptacle is reliably grounded.

Grounding the firewall
WARNING
!
•
Correctly connecting the firewall grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI
protection.
•Do not connect the firewall grounding cable to a fire main or lightning rod.
You can ground the firewall in one of the following ways, depending on the grounding conditions
available at the installation site.
Grounding the firewall with a grounding strip
If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, connect the grounding cable through the
grounding strip.
To connect the grounding cable:

15
1. Remove the grounding screw from the firewall chassis.
2. Attach the grounding screw to the ring terminal of the grounding cable.
3. Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the grounding screw into the grounding hole on the firewall.
4. Remove the hex nut from the grounding strip.
5. Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to bend a hook at the other end of the grounding cable. Attach
the hook to the grounding point, and secure the hook with a screw.

Installing power supplies
CAUTION:
•
Before installing a power supply, make sure the power supply is powered off and the grounding
cable is correctly connected.
•
Do not install AC and DC power supplies on the same firewall.
•
Only the F1000-AI-20, F1000-AI-30, F1000-AI-50, F1000-AI-60, F1000-AI-70, F1000-AI-
80, and
F1000-AI-90 firewalls support removable power supplies.

Installing an interface module
CAUTION:
•
Do not hot swap interface modules.
•
To install two or more interface modules, use the upper interface module slot
s as a best practice.
If you have installed an interface module in a lower slot, you must press down t
he ejector levers
of the interface module while inserting it into an upper slot.
Only the F1000-AI-20, F1000-AI-30, F1000-AI-50, F1000-AI-60, F1000-AI-70, F1000-AI-80, and
F1000-AI-90 firewalls support interface modules.
No interface modules are provided with the firewall. Purchase them as needed. For interface module
compatibility with the firewalls, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
The installation procedure is the same for all interface modules.
To install an interface module:
1. Face the rear panel of the firewall.
2. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws on the filler panel and then remove the filler
panel.
Keep the filler panel for future use.
