FortiGate-6000F hardware assembly and rack mounting
Fortinet Technologies Inc.
To install transceivers
To complete this procedure, you need:
l
A FortiGate-6000F
l
Transceivers to install
l
An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
FortiGate-6000Fs must be protected from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle or
work with FortiGate-6000Fs at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic
discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling FortiGate-6000Fs.
Handling the transceivers by holding the release latch can damage the connector. Do not
force transceivers into their cage slots. If the transceiver does not easily slide in and click into
place, it may not be aligned correctly. If this happens, remove the transceiver, realign it and
slide it in again.
1.
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an available ESD socket or wrist strap terminal.
2.
Remove the caps from the cage sockets on the FortiGate-6000F front panel.
3.
Hold the sides of the transceiver and slide it into the cage socket until it clicks into place.
