FortiGate-7121F cable bracket kit

The FortiGate-7121F chassis includes an optional cable bracket kit that you can install to help manage the network

cables connected to FIMs and FPMs installed in the chassis.

To install a FPM-7620F you slide the module into a hub/switch slot in the front of an FortiGate-7000 series chassis

(either 3 to 12) and then use the mounting hardware, described in FPM-7620F mounting hardware on page 5, to lock the

module into place in the slot. When locked into place and positioned correctly, the module front panel is flush with the

chassis front panel and connected to the chassis backplane.

To position the module correctly you must use the mounting hardware shown below for the right of the FPM-7620F front

panel. The mounting hardware on the left o f the front panel is the same but reversed. The FPM-7620F mounting

hardware aligns the module in the chassis slot and is used to insert and eject the module from the slot.

FPM-7620F Processing Module Guide

On some FPM modules there may be very little clearance between the front panel interfaces

and the module lever on the right side of the FPM-7620F. In fact, you may have to remove

network connectors from some front panel interfaces to open the module lever. In most cases

you should remove all network connectors from the front panel before opening the module

levers to remove an FIM module from a chassis slot.
