Before You Begin
The location of the device, the layout of the mounting equipment, and the security of
your wiring room are crucial for proper system operation.
CAUTION: To prevent abuse and intrusion by unauthorized personnel, install
the appliance in a secure environment.
Observing the following precautions can prevent shutdowns, equipment failures, and
injuries:
• Before installation, always check that the power supply is disconnected from any power
source.
• Ensure that the room in which you operate the device has adequate air circulation and
that the room temperature does not exceed 104°F (40°C).
• Do not place the device in an equipment-rack frame that blocks an intake or exhaust
port. Ensure that enclosed racks have fans and louvered sides.
• Correct these hazardous conditions before any installation: moist or wet floors, leaks,
ungrounded or frayed power cables, or missing safety grounds.
For a comprehensive presentation on the precautions you must take to prevent personal
injury and damage to the equipment, see the Juniper Networks Security Products Safety
Guide.
