We'll discuss this more in the examples section for each individual connector. The term "mount" can refer to several things: how the connector is mounted in use (panel mount, free-hanging, board mount), what the angle of the connector is relative to its attachment (straight or right-angle), or how it is mechanically attached (solder tab, surface mount, through hole). Mount - This one has the potential for being confusing. It's important that you select a connector with a suitable life for the application. A USB connector may have a lifetime in the thousands or tens of thousands of cycles, while a board-to-board connector designed for use inside of consumer electronics may be limited to tens of cycles. Datasheets usually present that information in terms of mating cycles, and it varies widely from one technology to another. Mating cycles - Connectors have a finite life, and connecting and disconnecting them is what wears them out.
So, yes.this might be just a little thing for Fortinet, but it isn't for us in terms of security (yes, sure - we could relabel it, but it wouldn't be an official download from fortinet, would it now?).The pitch of the pins on the headers on a standard Arduino is. The usb cable seems to want a driver for "FT232R USB UART" and we got that from (couldn't find anything remotly more "legit"). We are sending these cables out to our customer with our fortigates (sometimes needed for troubleshooting, etc.) and the customer usually asks for an official driver (rightfully so) - because Windows doesn't seem to have a build-in driver and installing a "foreign" driver one (depending on the corporate policies of the OS and the corporate guidelines) might just not be feasible (or quite a hassle).Ĭonsidering Fortigate is a security company, I would expect them to give us something (even if it is just a relabel) official, so that we can point to that for our customers in order to install a driver to make it work!
I am also rather desperate trying to get an "official" driver for that cable that is showing! Those are branded by Fortinet! I don't want to necro the thread, but I have some pain with all that to be honest.
