Rack mounting
FortiWLM appliances should be installed in a restricted access location
such as a locked data center to ensure their physical security, which is
fundamental to your network security. Mount the appliance in any standard
19 inch (48.3cm) rack with the rack-mount brackets.
In a rack, a FortiWLM 1000D occupies 1U (1.77inches/4.45 cm).
• 2-post rack: Attach the rack-mount brackets to the middle of each
side of appliance so that its weight is distributed evenly.
• 4-post rack: Attach the rack-mount brackets to the front of each
side of the appliance with anges facing outwards, towards the
notches in the rack.

Installing SFP transceivers
If not already installed, install the SFP transceivers that will be used to
connect your appliance to the network.
Caution: Do not install or remove SFP transceivers while ber-optic cables
are still attached. This can cause damage to the cables, cable connectors,
and optical interfaces. It may also prevent the transceiver from latching
correctly into the socket.
Note: Installing and removing SFP transceivers can shorten their life. Do
not install or remove transceivers more than is necessary.
To install the SFP transceivers
1. On the appliance’s front panel, remove the caps from SFP cage sockets.
2. Position the SFP transceiver in front of the cage socket so that the
extraction lever is level with the socket latch.
Note: SFP cage socket orientation may vary. Ensure that the SFP
transceiver module is correctly oriented.
3. Holding the sides of the SFP transceiver, gently slide it into the cage
socket.
Caution: Do not force SFP transceivers into cage slots. Force can cause
damage. If the transceiver does not easily slide in and click into place,
it may not be aligned correctly or may be upside down. If this happens,
remove the SFP transceiver, realign or rotate it, and try again.

4. Press the transceiver rmly into the cage socket with your thumb until it
clicks, indicating that it is latched.
5. To verify that the transceiver is latched, grasp its sides and try to pull it out
without lowering the extraction lever.
If you can remove the transceiver, it was not latched correctly, and could
become accidentally dislodged. Try again.
To remove the SFP transceivers
1. Disconnect the ber optic cable from the transceiver connector.
2. To prevent dust from entering the optical bores, insert clean plugs.
3. To eject the transceiver, pull the extraction lever out and down.
Tip: Instead of using your nger, try a small at-head screwdriver.
4. Hold the sides of the transceiver and carefully pull it from the cage socket.
5. Replace the cap on the SFP cage socket.
6. Put the removed SFP transceiver into an anti-static bag.
