FortiGate-5140 chassis
FortiGate-5140 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 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-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 7 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.
Physical description of the FortiGate-5140 chassisFortiGate-5140 chassis
For detailed information about connecting power to the FortiGate-5140 chassis, see
“Connecting a FortiGate-5140 chassis to data center DC power and data center ground”
on page 17 or “Connecting the FortiGate-5140 chassis to AC power using the
FortiGate-5053 power converter tray” on page 20.
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 (see
“Connecting the FortiGate-5140 chassis to data center ground” on page 27). Use the back
cable tray for securing and managing DC power, RTN, and ground wires.
The back panel also contains 14 RTM slots numbered to correspond to the front panel
slots. The RTM slots are available for FortiGate-5000 RTM modules such as the
FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module. When the FortiGate-5140 chassis is shipped, these slots are
covered by RTM slot filler panels.
Physical description of the FortiGate-5140 chassis
The FortiGate-5140 chassis is a 12U chassis that can be installed in a standard 19-inch
rack. Table 1 describes the physical characteristics of the FortiGate-5140 chassis.

FortiGate-5140 shelf managers
The FortiGate-5140 chassis includes one or two redundant hot-swappable shelf
managers, located in the dedicated shelf manager slots on the right of the FortiGate-5140
front panel. The primary shelf manager is installed above the secondary shelf manager.
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-5140 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-5140 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-5140
backplane.
The shelf managers detect alarm conditions and communicate alarm signals to the
FortiGate-5140 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-5140 chassis.

Shelf Manager fan and power control
The FortiGate-5140 shelf managers monitor the internal temperature of the
FortiGate-5140 chassis and adjust the operating speed of the FortiGate-5140 chassis
cooling fans as required.
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-5140 chassis cooling fans always operate at full speed.
FortiGate-5140 shelf alarm panel
The FortiGate-5140 shelf alarm panel (SAP), located at the top of the FortiGate-5140 front
panel, provides LED indicators of FortiGate-5140 alarms, a telco alarm connector, an
alarm LED reset button, and console access to the FortiGate-5140 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.
