This chapter assumes the chassis has been mounted and connected to a power source
as detailed in
"Power connection and configuration" on page
This chapter discusses:
•
Mounting the FortiGate-5060 chassis
•
Inserting 5000 series boards and RTM modules into a FortiGate-5060 chassis
•
Using FortiSwitch-5003A boards for backplane communication
Note: Mount the FortiGate chassis before installing the FortiGate-5000 series modules.
The FortiGate-5060 chassis must be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. The chassis
requires 5U of vertical space in the rack.
If you install the FortiGate-5060 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.
Caution: The FortiGate-5060 chassis should not be operated as a free-standing appliance.
Caution: Install the FortiGate-5060 chassis at the lower positions in the rack to avoid
making the rack top-heavy and potentially falling over.
For rack installation, make sure that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of
the FortiGate-5060 chassis is not compromised.
You can insert FortiGate and FortiSwitch-5000 series boards into the front of the
FortiGate-5060 chassis and RTM modules into the back of the chassis. Arrange the
boards and modules in slots as required for your configuration. FortiGate-5000 series
boards can be installed in any FortiGate-5060 front panel slots. FortiSwitch boards can
only be installed in switch slots 1 and 2. FortiGate-5000 series RTM modules can be
installed in any FortiGate-5060 RTM slot.
