FortiGate-5050 chassis
FortiGate-5050 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 also includes 14 rear transition module (RTM) slots. The
FortiGate-5050 chassis supports 10-gigabit fabric channel communication if you have
installed FortiGate-5001A boards with FortiGate-RTM-XB2 modules and one or two
FortiSwitch-5003A boards.
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.

FortiGate-5050 back panel
Figure 2 shows the back of a FortiGate-5050 chassis. The FortiGate-5050 chassis back
panel includes two redundant -48V to - 58V DC power input connectors labelled Input A
and Input B. The power input connectors provide redundant DC power connections for the
FortiGate-5050 chassis and distribute DC power to the fan tray and the FortiGate-5000
series boards installed in the FortiGate-5050 chassis. Each power input connector
includes a 24 Amp circuit breaker that also functions as an on/off switch for the power
input connector.
If you require redundant power you should connect both power input connectors to DC
power. If redundant power is not required, you should connect power input connector A to
DC power. When operating, the power input connectors are covered with clear protection
plates.

FortiGate-5050 shelf managers
The FortiGate-5050 chassis includes one or two redundant hot-swappable shelf
managers, located in the dedicated shelf manager slots on the bottom of the
FortiGate-5050 front panel. The primary shelf manager is installed on the right (SMC 1)
the secondary shelf manager is installed on the left (SMC 2).
The shelf managers support redundant operation with automatic switchover. If both shelf
managers are operating normally, one acts as the active shelf manager and the other as
the standby. Usually the primary shelf manager would be the active shelf manager and the
secondary shelf manager would be the standby shelf manager. The shelf managers
monitor each other and either can trigger a switchover if necessary. The active shelf
manager performs all shelf manager functions. If the active shelf manager fails or is
removed, the standby shelf manager takes over all shelf manager functions.
The FortiGate-5050 shelf managers control chassis power up and power down, chassis
power distribution, monitor chassis operating parameters, monitor and control chassis
cooling, and can signal alarms if the chassis encounters problems. All FortiGate-5000
modules installed in the chassis communicate with the shelf managers.
The FortiGate-5050 shelf managers are factory installed. In most cases users do not have
to install or configure the shelf managers.
Each shelf manager has two ethernet interfaces (ETH 0 and ETH 1). You can connect to
ETH 0 from the shelf manager front panel. ETH 1 connects to the FortiGate-5050
backplane.
The shelf managers detect alarm conditions and communicate alarm signals to the
FortiGate-5050 shelf alarm panel. The shelf alarm panel also contains serial interfaces for
connecting to the shelf managers.
The shelf managers are hot swappable. You can remove a shelf manager by opening the
extraction lever until the hot swap LED starts blinking. When the hot swap LED turns solid
blue you can remove the shelf manager from the FortiGate-5050 chassis.

Shelf Manager fan and power control
The FortiGate-5050 shelf managers monitor the internal temperature of the
FortiGate-5050 chassis and adjust the operating speed of the FortiGate-5050 chassis
cooling fan as required. If the temperature in the chassis becomes too high, the shelf
managers can also power down FortiGate-5000 modules installed in the chassis to help
reduce the temperature.
When the chassis is first powered on all cooling fans run at full speed. Once the shelf
manager is up and running, the shelf manager reduces cooling fan speeds to maintain an
optimum temperature in the chassis. If shelf managers are not installed or not operating
correctly the FortiGate-5050 chassis cooling fans always operate at full speed.
The FortiGate-5050 shelf alarm panel (SAP), located at the bottom of the FortiGate-5050
front panel, provides LED indicators of FortiGate-5050 alarms, a telco alarm connector, an
alarm LED reset button, and console access to the FortiGate-5050 shelf managers. The
LED alarm indicators include critical, major, and minor alarms as well as three user
defined alarms.
The alarm LED reset button (RESET) on the shelf alarm panel activates the Alarm Cutoff
(ACO) state. When ACO is activated, the active alarm LEDs blink and all of the alarm
relays are deactivated.
