Turning on FortiGate-7060E chassis power
FortiGate-7060E hardware assembly and rack mounting
The FortiGate-7060E chassis must be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack and requires 8U of vertical space in the
rack. This chapter describes how to attach accessories to the FortiGate-7060E chassis, how to install the chassis
in a 4-post or 2-post rack, and how to install FIM and FPM modules in the chassis front panel slots.
If you install the FortiGate-7060E chassis in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Make sure the operating
ambient temperature does not exceed the manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature.
It is recommended that you mount the FortiGate-7060E chassis near the bottom of the rack to avoid making the
rack top-heavy and potentially falling over. If you are going to mount the chassis higher make sure the rack is well
anchored. Since the chassis is over 100 lbs use a lift to raise the chassis into position before mounting it.

The FortiGate-7060E chassis should not be operated as a free-standing appliance.
Install accessories before mounting the chassis in a rack. Install the modules after the
chassis is rack mounted.
