Overview :
The FortiGate 7060E is a 8U 19-inch rackmount 6-slot chassis with a 80Gbps fabric and 1Gbps base backplane designed by Fortinet. The fabric backplane provides network data communication and the base backplane provides management and synch communication among the chassis slots.
FortiGate 7060E front panel :
The chassis is managed by two redundant management modules. Each module includes an Ethernet connection as well as two switchable console ports that provide console connections to the modules in the chassis slots. The active management module controls chassis cooling and power management and provides an interface for managing the modules installed in the chassis
FIM modules
- FIM modules are hot swappable interface modules that provide data and management interfaces, base
- backplane switching and fabric backplane session-aware load balancing for the chassis. The FIM modules
- include an integrated switch fabric and DP2 processors to load balance millions of data sessions over the chassis
- fabric backplane to FPM processor modules. The following FIM modules are available:
- The FIM-7901E includes thirty-two front panel 10GigE SFP+ fabric channel interfaces (A1 to A32). These interfaces are connected to 10Gbps networks. These interfaces can also be configured to operate as Gigabit Ethernet
- interfaces using SFP transceivers.
- The FIM-7904E includes eight front panel 40GigE QSFP+ fabric channel interfaces (B1 to B8). These interfaces are
- connected to 40Gbps networks. Using 40GBASE-SR4 multimode QSFP+ transceivers, each QSFP+ interface can
- also be split into four 10GBASE-SR interfaces and connected to 10Gbps networks.
- The FIM-7910E (shown in FIM modules on page 6) includes four front panel 100GigE CFP2 fabric channel
- interfaces (C1 to C4). These interfaces can be connected to 100Gbps networks. Using 100GBASE-SR10 multimode
- CFP2 transceivers, each CFP2 interface can also be split into ten 10GBASE-SR interfaces and connected to 10Gbps networks.
- The FIM-7920E includes four front panel 100GigE QSFP28 fabric channel interfaces (C1 to C4). These interfaces can be connected to 100Gbps networks. Using a 100GBASE-SR4 QSFP28 or 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+ transceiver, each QSFP28 interface can also be split into four 10GBASE-SR interfaces and connected to 10Gbps networks
