FortiGate-5001C mounting components
To install a FortiGate-5001C board you slide the board into an open slot in the front of an
ATCA chassis and then use the mounting components to lock the board into place in the
slot. When locked into place and positioned correctly the board front panel is flush with
the chassis front panel. The board is also connected to the chassis backplane.
To position the board correctly you must use the mounting components shown in
Figure 6
for the right (bottom) side of the front panel. The mounting components on the
left (top) side of the FortiGate-5001C front panel are the same but reversed. The
FortiGate-5001C mounting components align the board in the chassis slot and are used
to insert and eject the board from the slot.
FortiGate-5001C boards must be protected from static discharge and physical shock.
Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001C boards at a static-free workstation. Always
wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling
FortiGate-5001C boards.
FortiGate-5001C boards are horizontal when inserted into a FortiGate-5060 chassis and
vertical when inserted into a FortiGate-5140 chassis. The inserting and removing
procedures are the same in either case. For clarity the descriptions in this document
refer to the left (top) and right (bottom) mounting components.
