Deployment Requirements
Professional Installation
The installation of the SonicWave 432o should be performed by a professional installer to ensure proper
operation and compliance with local safety guidelines.
SonicOS Firmware
• SonicWave 432o access points are centrally managed by SonicWall network security appliances running
SonicOS 6.5 or higher.
Power Source
• Use a multi-gigabit 802.3at compliant PoE injector or switch to provide power to each SonicWave 432o.
Internet Connectivity
• An active Internet connection is required for your firewall to download the latest SonicWave firmware.
Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity
• The SonicWave 432o hardware requires more bandwidth than a 1 Gigabit Ethernet connection can
handle. SonicWall recommends connecting your SonicWave (through a PoE device) to a 2.5 Gbps
interface to take full advantage of the SonicWave 432o data throughput capability.
