Introduction Warnings and cautions
FortiGate-5000 Series Hardware Guide
01-00000-0293-20060315 9
Warnings and cautions
Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install or maintain
FortiGate-5000 series hardware. Read and comply with all warnings, cautions and
notices in this document.
• Turning off all power switches may not turn off all power to the FortiGate unit.
Disconnect the FortiGate unit from its power source, telecommunications links
and networks before installing, removing FortiGate components, or performing
other maintenance tasks. Failure to do this can result in personal injury or
equipment damage. Some circuitry in the unit may continue to operate even
though all power switches are off.
• Install the FortiGate chassis at the lower positions in the rack to avoid making
the rack top-heavy and potentially falling over.
• Do not insert metal objects or tools in open slots.
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage FortiGate hardware. Only perform
the procedures described in this document from an ESD workstation. If no
such station is available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an
anti-static wrist or ankle strap and attaching it to an ESD connector or to a
metal part of the FortiGate chassis.
• Some FortiGate components may overload your supply circuit and impact your
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Use appropriate equipment
nameplate ratings to address this concern.
• Make sure all FortiGate components have reliable grounding. Fortinet
recommends direct connections to the branch circuit.
• If you install a FortiGate component in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater
than room ambient. Make sure the operating ambient temperature does not
exceed the manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature.
About Data Center DC power
The FortiGate-5140 and FortiGate-5050 chassis are designed to be installed in a
Data Center or similar location that has available -48VDC power. Fortinet expects
that most FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050 customers will be installing their
FortiGate equipment in a data center or similar location that is already equipped
with a -48VDC power system that provides power to existing networking or
telecom equipment. The FortiGate-5140 and FortiGate-5050 chassis are
designed to be connected directly to this DC power system.
In this document, Data Center DC power refers to a -48VDC power system that is
already available at the location at which the FortiGate-5140 or FortiGate-5050
chassis is being installed.
!
Caution: You should be aware of the following cautions and warnings before installing
FortiGate-5000 series hardware.

FortiGate-5140 chassis
The FortiGate-5140 chassis is a 12U 19-inch rack mount ATCA chassis that
includes 14 slots for up to 14 FortiGate-5000 series modules (such as the
FortiGate-5001SX, FortiGate-5001FA2, and the FortiGate-5002FB2). If each
FortiGate-5000 module is operating as a standalone system, you can install any
combination of FortiGate-5000 series modules in these 14 slots. If all 14 slots
contain FortiGate-5001SX modules, the FortiGate-5140 chassis provides a total
of 112 Gigabit ethernet FortiGate interfaces.
You can also install a FortiSwitch-5003 module in the FortiGate-5140 chassis to
provide HA heartbeat communications. A single FortiSwitch-5003 module can
provide HA heartbeat communications for up to 13 FortiGate-5000 series modules
installed in the chassis. You can add a second FortiSwitch-5003 module for
redundancy. The First FortiSwitch-5003 module is installed in slot 1, the second in
slot 2. If one FortiSwitch-5003 module is included you can install and provide HA
heartbeat communication for up to 13 FortiGate-5000 series modules in slots 2 to
14. If two FortiSwitch-5003 modules are included, you can install and provide HA
heartbeat communication for up to 12 FortiGate-5000 series modules in slots 3 to
14.
You can mix and match any combination of FortiGate-5000 series modules in the
FortiGate-5140 chassis. For example, you could install six FortiGate-5001SX
modules, three FortiGate-5001FA2 and three FortiGate-5002FB2 modules.
Some of the modules installed in a FortiGate-5140 chassis can be operating in a
FortiGate HA cluster and some can be operating as standalone FortiGate units.
You can also operate multiple HA clusters and standalone FortiGate units in a
single FortiGate-5140 chassis.
The FortiGate-5140 chassis requires -48VDC Data Center DC power. If DC power
is not available you can install a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray (purchased

FortiGate-5140 chassis back panel
Figure 2 shows the back panel of the FortiGate-5140 chassis. The back panel
includes two hot-swappable redundant -48V/-60 VDC power entry modules
(PEMs) labelled PEM A and PEM B. Fortinet ships the FortiGate-5140 chassis
with PEM A and PEM B installed. The PEMs provide redundant DC power
connections for the FortiGate-5140 chassis and distribute DC power to the fan
trays and to the FortiGate-5000 series modules installed in the FortiGate-5140
chassis.
The power entry modules are hot swappable, which means you can remove and
replace a defective PEM while the FortiGate-5140 is operating assuming that the
FortiGate-5140 system has both PEMs connected to DC power for redundancy.
When operating, the power entry modules are covered with protection plates. The
power entry modules are shown in the Figure 2 with protection plates removed.
Figure 2: FortiGate-5140 chassis back panel
The back panel also includes two ground connectors and the back cable tray.
Both ground connectors must be connected to Data Center ground. Use the back
cable tray for securing and managing DC power, RTN, and ground wires.

FortiGate-5140 chassis Connecting a FortiGate-5140 chassis to Data Center DC power and Data Center ground
FortiGate-5000 Series Hardware Guide
01-00000-0293-20060315 15
Connecting a FortiGate-5140 chassis to Data Center DC power
and Data Center ground
Connect the FortiGate-5140 chassis to Data Center DC power (also called battery
power) using the redundant power entry modules (PEMs). Fortinet supplies and
recommends AWG-14 stranded wires for all power connections. Black for
-48VDC, red for RTN, and green for ground. If required, install terminal lugs on the
wires before connecting them to the PEM terminal strips. If you are connecting
both PEMs the -48VDC and RTN terminals on PEM A and PEM B must be wired
symmetrically.
This section describes:
•Connecting FortiGate-5140 power zones
•Connecting a FortiGate-5140 PEM to Data Center DC power
•Connecting the FortiGate-5140 chassis to Data Center ground
Connecting FortiGate-5140 power zones
Each FortiGate-5140 PEM includes 4 connectors that connect power to 4 different
power zones in the FortiGate-5140 chassis. Each power zone supplies power to
different FortiGate-5140 slots and cooling fan trays. You can connect the power in
a number of configurations depending on the requirements of a particular
installation.
Power zone 1 provides power to:
• Fan Tray 0 and Fan tray 1
• Slots 9, 11, 13 (see Figure 1)
Power zone 2 provides power to:
• Slots 1, 3, 5, 7 (see Figure 1)
Power zone 3 provides power to:
•Fantray2
• Slots 2, 4, 6, and 8 (see Figure 1)
Power zone 4 provides power to:
• Slots 10, 12, 14 (see Figure 1)
• Shelf manager
You can choose to connect power only to the power zones that you require. For
example, if your FortiGate-5140 chassis contains a FortiSwitch-5003 module in
slot 1 and four FortiGate-5001SX modules in slots 2, 3, 4, and 5 you would need
to connect the following power zones:
• Power zone 2 (for slots 1, 3, and 5)
• Power zone 3 (for fan tray 2 and slots 2 and 4)
• Power zone 4 (shelf manager)
This arrangement provides power to all occupied slots and should also provide
enough cooling for this configuration. If you want more or redundant cooling, you
can also connect power zone 1.

FortiGate-5000 Series Hardware Guide
16 01-00000-0293-20060315
Connecting a FortiGate-5140 chassis to Data Center DC power and Data Center ground FortiGate-5140 chassis
If you are connecting both PEMs the -48VDC and RTN terminals on PEM A and
PEM B must be wired symmetrically. This means that the connections must be the
same to both PEMs. For example, if you are planning on connecting power zones
1 and 2, you should use -48VDC and RTN connectors 1 and 2 on both PEM A and
PEM B. You should not connect to power zone 1 of PEM A and power zone 2 of
PEM B.
If a FortiGate-5140 chassis contains one FortiGate-5003 module it would be
installed in logical slot 1 and receive power from power zone 2. You could also
install two FortiGate-5001SX modules in logical slots 3 and 5 to also receive
power from power zone 2.
As a result, to supply power to this FortiGate-5140 configuration, you would need
to supply power to power zone 2 for the FortiGate-5003 and the FortiGate-
5001SX modules.You would also need to supply power to power zone 1 or 3 to
supply power to the fan trays.
FortiGate-5140 PEMs are hot-swappable, which means you can remove and
replace a defective PEM while the system is operating (assuming that the
FortiGate-5140 system has a DC PEM connected for redundancy). It is not
necessary to notify the software or reset the system power. You can add, remove,
or replace a second PEM while the system maintains all routing information and
ensures session preservation.
Connecting a FortiGate-5140 PEM to Data Center DC power
The following procedure describes how to connect power to power zones 1 and 2
of one PEM.
To connect a FortiGate-5140 PEM to Data Center DC power
You need the following tools and equipment to connect a FortiGate-5140 PEM to
Data Center DC power:
• A number 2 Phillips screwdriver.
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with
connection cord.
• The required number of red and black AWG-14 stranded wires with terminal
lugs attached.

Connecting the FortiGate-5140 chassis to AC power using the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray FortiGate-5140 chassis
The FortiGate-5053 power converter tray contains space for up to three
FortiGate-5140 power supplies. A FortiGate-5140 power supply converts AC
power to -48 VDC power. Each FortiGate-5140 power supply provides 1200W of
power.
The FortiGate-5053 power converter tray uses 2 + 1 power supply redundancy.
If three FortiGate-5140 power supplies are installed in a FortiGate-5053 power
converter tray, the first two power supplies provide a total of 2400W (2 x 1200W)
of power. The third power supply is the redundant backup.
The maximum power output for a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray with
FortiGate-5140 power supplies is 2400W; which can be achieved with two
FortiGate-5140 power supplies. If you need 2400W of power and power supply
redundancy, you can add a third FortiGate-5140 power supply.
Individual power requirements vary. If 1200W is enough power and redundancy is
not required, you require one FortiGate-5053 power converter tray and one
FortiGate-5140 power supply.
If 1200W is sufficient but a redundant power supply is required, you can add a
second FortiGate-5140 power supply. This second power supply will also cover
power requirements between 1200 and 2400W. If you require redundant power
greater than 1200W you can add a third FortiGate-5140 power supply.
Basic power requirements
To supply enough power for a FortiGate-5140 chassis with a total of 14 FortiGate
and FortiSwitch modules you require one FortiGate-5053 power converter tray
and two FortiGate-5140 power supplies (see Figure 7). The FortiGate-5140 power
supplies are installed in FortiGate-5053 slots 1 and 2. This configuration supplies
2400W of power to the FortiGate-5140 chassis.
Figure 7: Non-redundant power for all FortiGate-5140 chassis slots
Note: If your will not be filling all of the FortiGate-5140 slots you may not need both
FortiGate-5140 power supplies.
