Regulatory notices, cautions and warnings
Installing FortiGate-5000 series equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for
safe operation of the equipment is not compromised. See "Cooling fans, cooling air flow, and minimum
clearance" on page 25 for details.
FortiGate-5000 series equipment shall be installed and connected to an electrical supply source in accordance with the
applicable codes and regulations for the location in which it is installed. Particular attention shall be paid to use of
correct wire type and size to comply with the applicable codes and regulations for the installation/location. Connection
of the supply wiring to the terminal block on the equipment may be accomplished using Listed wire compression lugs,
for example, Pressure Terminal Connector made by Ideal Industries Inc. or equivalent which is suitable for AWG-8.
Particular attention shall be given to use of the appropriate compression tool specified by the compression lug
manufacturer, if one is specified.
Install FortiGate-5000 series equipment located in a restricted access location where only crafts personnel are allowed
access.
WARNING : The intra-building ports, Gigabit Ethernet, RJ-45 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet, and RS-232 Serial ports of
any FortiGate, FortiSwitch, and FortiController 5000 Series Boards, including Shelf-Manager of the equipment or
subassembly is suitable for connection to intrabuilding or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intrabuilding port(s) of
the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring.
These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-
CORE, Issue 6) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary Protectors is not sufficient
protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
FortiGate-5000 series chassis shall be installed and connected to the common bonding network.
FortiGate-5000 series chassis are suitable for installation in the Central Office and NEC.
The battery returns of FortiGate-5000 series chassis shall be connected as DC-I.
All bare grounding connection points to FortiGate-5000 series chassis shall be cleaned and coated with an anti-oxidant
solution before connections are made.
All surfaces on FortiGate-5000 series chassis that are un-plated shall be brought to a bright finish and treated with and
anti-oxidant solution before connections is made.
All non-conductive surfaces on FortiGate-5000 series chassis shall be removed from all threads and connection points
to ensure electrical continuity.
Unambiguous reference to service documentation for instructions for replacement of fuses replaceable only by service
personnel.
