About This Guide Chassis Warning for Rack-Mounting and Servicing Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
About This Guide Short-Circuit Protection Warning Warning This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, to be provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. Statement 1045 Compliance with Local and National Electrical Codes Warning Warning Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes.
About This Guide Grounded Equipment Warning Warning This equipment is intended to be grounded. Ensure that the host is connected to earth ground during normal use. Statement 39 Safety Cover Requirement Warning The safety cover is an integral part of the product. Do not operate the unit without the safety cover installed. Operating the unit without the cover in place will invalidate the safety approvals and pose a risk of fire and electrical hazards.

CH A P T E R 2 Preparing for Installation The information in this guide applies to the following Cisco ASA 5500 series Adaptive Security Appliance models: Cisco ASA 5510, Cisco ASA 5520, Cisco ASA 5540, and Cisco ASA 5550. In this guide, references to “Cisco ASA 5500 series Adaptive Security Appliance” and “adaptive security appliance” apply to all models unless specifically noted otherwise.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Safety Recommendations Step 2 Read the release notes for the respective software version. Step 3 Unpack the chassis. An accessory kit ships with the chassis and includes the following items: documentation, a product CD, a power cord (AC models only), two RJ-45 Ethernet cables, one RJ-45 to DB-9 console cable, a rack-mounting kit, and four self-adhesive feet (for desktop mounting). Step 4 Place the chassis on a stable work surface.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation Safety Recommendations • Look carefully for possible hazards in your work area, such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, frayed power cords, and missing safety grounds. • If an electrical accident occurs, proceed as follows: – Use caution; do not become a victim yourself. – Disconnect power from the system. – If possible, send another person to get medical aid. Otherwise, assess the condition of the victim and then call for help.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation General Site Requirements General Site Requirements The topics in this section describe the requirements your site must meet for safe installation and operation of your system. Ensure that your site is properly prepared before beginning installation.
Chapter 2 Preparing for Installation General Site Requirements The following chassis models can have either an AC or DC power supply: Cisco ASA 5510, Cisco ASA 5520, Cisco ASA 5540, and Cisco ASA 5550. Observe the following considerations: • Check the power at the site before installing the chassis to ensure that the power is “clean” (free of spikes and noise). Install a power conditioner if necessary, to ensure proper voltages and power levels in the source voltage.
