(FortiController-5208 boards) and one or more worker boards (FortiGate-5005FA2
boards running in DIST mode). The I/O boards provide 10 gigabit and 1gigabit
network connections and distribute traffic to the worker boards. The worker
boards provide FortiGate security system functions including firewall, VPN, IPS,
antivirus, antispam, and so on. For details about the FortiGate-5005-DIST security
system, see “The FortiGate-5005-DIST security system” on page 67.
FortiController-5208 system
An integral part of a
FortiGate-5005-DIST Security
System, the FortiController-5208
board provides all Fortigate-5005-DIST 10gigabit and 1 gigabit network
interfaces. The FortiContro0ller-5208 board also provides the management
interface to the FortiGate-5005-DIST system and controls backplane
communication between all FortiGate-5005-DIST components.
You can create a FortiGate-5005-DIST high-throughput multi-threat network
security system using one or two FortiGate boards and multiple FortiGate-5005
boards in a FortiGate-5050 or FortiGate-5140 chassis. A FortiGate-5020 chassis
cannot be used to create a FortiGate-5005-DIST system. Functionally, one or two
FortiGate boards using the processing power of multiple FortiGate-5005 boards
function much like a single FortiGate unit, but with far greater capacity. For details
about the FortiController-55208 board, see “FortiController-5208 system” on
page 73.

Introduction About Data Center DC power
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.

FortiGate-5140-R chassis
FortiGate-5140-R chassis
You can install up to 14 FortiGate-5000 series boards in the 14 front panel slots of the
FortiGate-5140 ATCA chassis. The FortiGate-5140 is a 12U chassis that contains two
redundant hot swappable DC power entry modules that connect to -48 VDC Data Center
DC power. The FortiGate-5140 chassis also includes three hot swappable cooling fan
trays and a front accessible air filter. If all 14 front panel slots contain FortiGate-5005A2,
FortiGate-5001SX, or FortiGate-5001FA2 boards the FortiGate-5140 chassis provides a
total of 112 FortiGate gigabit ethernet interfaces. If all 14 slots contain FortiGate-5001A
boards the FortiGate-5140 chassis supports 28 1-Gigabit ethernet FortiGate interfaces. If
you add FortiGate-ADM-XB2 modules to the FortiGate-5001A boards the FortiGate-5140
chassis supports another 28 10-Gigabit interfaces.
You can also install a FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 board in the FortiGate-5140
chassis to provide base backplane communications. Base backplane communications can
be used for HA heartbeat communications and for data communications. You can add a
second FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 board for redundancy. FortiSwitch-5003A
boards can also provide fabric backplane communication using the FortiGate-5140 fabric
backplane channels.
You can mix and match any combination of FortiGate-5000 series boards in the
FortiGate-5140 chassis. For example, you could install four FortiGate-5005FA2 boards,
four FortiGate-5001SX boards, and four FortiGate-5001FA2 boards. You can also install
FortiController-5208 and FortiGate-5005FA2 boards in a FortiGate-5140 chassis to create
a FortiGate-5005-DIST security system.
Some of the boards 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. You can also use FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 boards to operate HA
clusters consisting of FortiGate-5000 series boards installed in multiple FortiGate-5000
chassis. You can also use FortiSwitch-5003A boards for fabric data communication
between 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 separately)
with FortiGate-5140 power supplies.

If you require redundant power you should connect both PEMs to DC power. If redundant
power is not required, you should connect PEM A to DC power. Each PEM has four
-48V/-60 VDC connectors and 4 RTN connections. All eight of these connectors should be
connected to DC power. Figure 2 on page 17 shows the terminal block cover removed
from PEM A and the wiring required to connect PEM A to DC power. While operating the

If you require redundant power you should connect both PEMs to DC power. If redundant
power is not required, you should connect PEM A to DC power. Each PEM has four
-48V/-60 VDC connectors and 4 RTN connections. All eight of these connectors should be
connected to DC power. Figure 4 on page 21 shows the terminal block cover removed
from PEM A and the wiring required to connect PEM A to DC power. While operating the
FortiGate-5140 both terminal block covers should be installed.
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.
The back panel also includes the back cable tray, an ESD socket and the chassis ground
connector. The ground connector must be connected to Data Center ground. Use the back
cable tray for securing and managing DC power, RTN, and ground wires.

FortiGate-5050-R chassis
FortiGate-5050-R chassis
You can install up to five FortiGate-5000 series boards in the five slots of the
FortiGate-5050 ATCA chassis. The FortiGate-5050 is a 5U 19-inch rackmount ATCA
chassis that contains two redundant DC power connections that connect to -48 VDC Data
Center DC power. The FortiGate-5050 chassis also includes a hot swappable cooling fan
tray. If all five slots contain FortiGate-5005FA2, FortiGate-5001SX, or FortiGate-5001FA2
boards, the FortiGate-5050 chassis provides a total of 40 FortiGate gigabit ethernet
interfaces. If all 5 slots contain FortiGate-5001A boards the FortiGate-5050 chassis
supports ten 1-Gigabit ethernet FortiGate interfaces. If you add FortiGate-ADM-XB2
modules to the FortiGate-5001A boards the FortiGate-5050 chassis supports another ten
10-Gigabit interfaces.
You can also install a FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 board in the FortiGate-5050
chassis to provide base backplane communications. Base backplane communications can
be used for HA heartbeat communications and for data communications. You can add a
second FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 board for redundancy. FortiSwitch-5003A
boards can also provide fabric backplane communication using the FortiGate-5050 fabric
backplane channels.
You can mix and match any combination of FortiGate-5000 series boards in the
FortiGate-5050 chassis. For example, you could install two FortiGate-5005FA2 boards,
two FortiGate-5001SX boards, and one FortiGate-5001FA2 board. You can also install
FortiController-5208 and FortiGate-5005FA2 boards in a FortiGate-5050 chassis to create
a FortiGate-5005-DIST security system.
Some of the boards installed in a FortiGate-5050 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-5050
chassis. You can also use FortiSwitch-5003A or FortiSwitch-5003 boards to operate HA
clusters consisting of FortiGate-5000 series boards installed in multiple FortiGate-5000
chassis. You can also use FortiSwitch-5003A boards for fabric data communication
between chassis.
The FortiGate-5050 chassis requires -48VDC Data Center DC power. If DC power is not
available you can install a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray (purchased separately)
with FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies.
