Switched interface module
Two switched interface modules are installed on the FortiGate-4000S. Each switched
interface module contains two gigabit copper ethernet connectors. You can also
purchase and install optical connectors into the switched interface module small form
factor pluggable (SFP) interfaces. You cannot connect the copper interfaces and the
SPF interfaces at the same time.
The internal switched interface module provides two gigabit connections to the
internal interfaces of the FortiBlade-4010 modules installed in the FortiGate-4000
chassis. The external switched interface module provides two gigabit connections to
the external interfaces of the FortiBlade-4010 modules installed in the FortiGate-4000
chassis.
