Rack Installation
This device can be placed on a flat surface using the provided rubber feet,
or mounted in any standard 19 inch rack unit with the provided mounting
rails.
Caution
The rack must be stabilized before sliding the unit out for servicing. Failure
to stabilize may cause the rack to tip over.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your Fortinet equipment.
To avoid personal injury or damage to the unit, it is recommended that two
or more people install the unit into the rack.
Do not place heavy objects on the unit.
Rack Precautions
• Ensure the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to
the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on the jacks.
• For single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack.
• For multiple rack installations, the racks should be coupled together.
• Ensure the rack is stable before extending a component from the rack.
• Only extend one component at a time; extending two or more
simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
Rack Rail Parts
The rail assembly consists of two parts:
• Outer rail: connects to the rack
• Inner rail: connects to the device
The inner rail has a locking tab that locks the device into place when it is
installed and pushed into the rack. This prevents the device from sliding
fully out of the rack when the device is being worked on.
There are four steps to install the device into the rack:
1. Disassemble the rail assembly
2. Attach the inner rails to the device
3. Install the outer rails on a rack
4. Install the device into the rack
Disassemble the rail assembly
1. Identify the left and right rail assemblies.
2. Pull out the inner rail until it is fully extended.
3. Push the white locking tab to release the inner rail.
4. Remove the inner rail from the outer rail.
5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 for the remaining rail assembly.
Attach the inner rails to the device
1. Ensure that the right and left rails are correctly identified.
2. Place the inner rail against the side of the device and ensure that the
screw holes are aligned.
3. Secure the rail to the device using two of the provided M4 screws.
4. Attach the sliding rail handle to the device using four of the provided
M5 screws.
5. Repeat steps 2 - 3 for the remaining inner rail.
