hardware
•Turning off all power switches may not turn off all power to the FortiGate-5000 series equipment.
Except where noted, disconnect the FortiGate-5000 series equipment from all power sources,
telecommunications links and networks before installing, or removing FortiGate-5000 series
components, or performing other maintenance tasks. Failure to do this can result in personal injury or
equipment damage. Some circuitry in the Fort iGa te-5000 series equipment may continue to operate
even though all power switches are off.
•An easily accessible disconnect device, such as a circuit breaker, should be incorporated into the data
center wiring that connects power to the FortiGate-5000 series equipment.
•Install FortiGate-5000 series chassis at the lower positions of a rack to avoid making the rack top-heavy
and unstable.
•Do not insert metal object s or tools into open chassis slots.
•Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage FortiGate-5000 series equipment. 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 a FortiGate chassis.
•Some FortiGate-5000 series co mponents may overload your supply circuit a nd impact your overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Refer to nameplate ratings to address this concern.
•Make sure all FortiGate-5000 series components have reliable grounding. Fortinet recommends direct
connections to the branch circuit.
•If you install a FortiGate-5000 series 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.
•Installing FortiGate-5000 series equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required
for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
•This equipment is for installation only in a Restricted Access Location (dedicated equipment room,
service closet or the like), in accordance with the National Electrical Code.
•Per the National Electrical Code, sizing of a Listed circuit breaker or branch circuit fuse and the supply
conductors to the equipment is based on the marked inpu t current rating. A p roduct with a marked input
current rating of 25 A is required to be placed on a 40 A branch circuit. The supply conductors will also
be sized according to the input current rating and also derated for the maximum rated operating
ambient temperature, Tma, of the equipment.
•FortiGate-5000 series equipment shall be installed and connected to an electrical supply source in
accordance with the applicable codes and re gu la tio ns for the location in which it is installed. Particular
attention shall be paid to use of correct wire type and size to comply with the applicable codes and
regulations for the installation / location. Connection of the supply wiring to the terminal block on the
equipment may be accomplished using Listed wire compression lugs, for example, Pressure Terminal
Connector made by Ideal Industries Inc. or equivalent which is suitable for A WG 10. Par ticular attenti on
shall be given to use of the appropriate compre ss ion too l spe cifie d by the compression lug
manufacturer, if one is specified.

The shelf alarm panel telco alarm interface relay circuit s are capable of carrying
60 VDC or 1 A with a max. rating of 30 VA. The shelf alarm panel accepts timed
pulse inputs for clearing minor and major alarm states. Reset is accomplished by
asserting a voltage differential from 3.3 V to 48 V for between 200 and 300 ms.
The acceptance voltage range is from 0 to 48 VDC continuous (handles up to 60
VDC at a 50% duty cycle). The current drawn by a reset input does not exceed 12
mA.
The alarm LED reset button activates the alarm cutoff (ACO) state for major,

FortiGate-5050 shelf manager
The FortiGate-5050 chassis includes two identical redundan t hot-swappa ble 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
FortiGate-5140 and 5050 chassis include the same shelf managers.
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.

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 speed s to

Power connection and configuration About data center DC power
Power connection and configuration
This chapter describes how to connect dat a center DC power to a Fo rtiGate-5050
chassis. If data center DC power is not available, this document also describes
how to use the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray to supply DC power to the
FortiGate-5050 chassis.
This chapter describes:
•About data center DC power
•Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center DC power and data
center ground
•Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to AC power using the FortiGate-5053

•Turning on FortiGate-5050 chassis power
About data center DC power
The FortiGate-5050 chassis is designed to be installed in a data center or similar
location that has available -48VDC power (also called battery power). Fortinet
expects that most 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-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-5050 chassis is being
installed.
Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center DC power
and data center ground
Connect the FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center DC power using the redundant
power input connectors on the FortiGate-5050 back panel. Fortinet supplies and
recommends AWG-14 strand ed wires for all power connections: Black for -48VDC
and red for RTN. Green AWG-6 wires are recommended for ground connections.
If required, install terminal lugs on the wires before connecting them to the power
input connectors.

Power connection and configuration Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to AC power using the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray
Selecting the power supplies and power converter trays that you need for
your FortiGate-5050 configuration
This section provides some basic information for determining how many
FortiGate-5053 power converter trays and FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies
that you need, depending on the power re qu ire m en ts of your Fort iG at e- 50 5 0
chassis. This section provides guidelines only. Actual requirements may vary
depending on your installation requirements. Cont act Fortinet Technical Support if
you need more information.
The FortiGate-5053 power converter tray contains space for up to three
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies. A FortiGate-50 20/5050 power supply
converts AC power to -48 VDC power. Each FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply
provides 800W of power.
The FortiGate-5053 power converter tray uses 2 + 1 power supply redundancy.
If three FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are installed in a FortiGate-5053
power converter tray, the first two power supplies provide a total of 1600W
(2 x 800W) of power. The third power supply is the redundant backup.
The maximum power output for a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray with
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies is 1600W; which can be achieved with two
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies. If you need 1600W of power and power
supply redundancy, you can add a third FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply.
Individual power requirements vary. If 800W is enough power and redundancy is
not required, you need one FortiGate-5053 power converter tray and one
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply.
If 800W is sufficient but a redundant power supply is required, you can add a
second FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply. This second power supply will also
cover power requirements between 800 and 1600W. If you require redundant
power greater than 800W you can add a third FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply.
Basic power requirements
To supply enough power for a FortiGate-5050 chassis with a total of five FortiGate
modules and FortiSwitch modules you require one FortiGate-5053 power
converter tray and two FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies (see Figure 10). The
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are installed in FortiGate-5053 slots 1 and 2.
This configuration supplies 1600W of power to the FortiGate-5020/5050 chassis.
Note: If your will not be filling all of the FortiGate-5050 slots you may not need both
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies.

Redundant FortiGate-5053 power converter trays
A single FortiGate-5053 power converter tray is usually only connected to one
FortiGate-5050 power input connector. If this power input connector or
FortiGate-5053 power converter tray fails or is disconnected the FortiGate-5050
chassis will loose power.
You can supply redundant power to th e entire FortiGate-505 0 chassis by adding a
second FortiGate-5053 power converter containing two or three
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies and connected this FortiGate-5053 power
converter tray to the second FortiGate-5050 power input connector.

Figure 13: Redundant FortiGate-5053 power converter trays and 2 + 1 redundant
Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to AC power using the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray Power connection and configuration
Connecting a FortiGate-5050 chassis to the FortiGate-5053 power converter
tray
To use a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray with the FortiGate-5050 chassis
you need to make DC power connections between the FortiGate-5050 chassis
and the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray. You also need to the connect the
FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center ground.
To connect a FortiGate-5050 power input connector to a FortiGate-5053
power converter tray
The following procedure describes how to connect one FortiGate-5050 power
input connector to a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray. For normal operation,
only one power input connector must be connected. For redundant chassis DC
power you can connect the second power input connector to a second
FortiGate-5053 power converter tray.
You need the following tools and equipment to connect a FortiGate-5020/5050
power input connector to a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray:
•A number 2 Phillips screwdriver.
•An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with
connection cord.
•One black AWG-14 stranded wire with terminal lugs attached and labelled
-48V.
•One red AWG-14 stranded wire with terminal lugs attached and labelled RTN.
•A FortiGate-5053 power converter tray containing two or three
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies and mounted in a rack near the

11Attach the clear plastic cover to the back of the FortiGate-5053 power converter
tray.
12Connect the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray to AC power.
Only connect the power supplies that are installed in the FortiGate-5053 to AC
power. For exam ple, if your FortiGate-5053 includes two FortiGate-5020/5050
power supplies, the power supplies will be installed in slots 1 and 2. In this case
you should only connect AC in connectors 1 and 2 to AC power. If your
FortiGate-5053 power converter tray contains th ree power supples, connect all
three AC in connectors to AC power.
The photograph in Figure 15 shows the back panel of a FortiGate-5053 wired to
provide power to a FortiGate-5050 chassis. This photograph also shows the clear
back cover of the FortiGate-5053 installed. You should install this cover using the
mounting hardware provided. Install the cover after connecting the power but
before turning the power on.
Turning on FortiGate-5050 chassis powerPower connection and configuration
Figure 15: Wiring the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray
To connect the FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center ground
The FortiGate-5053 power converter tray does not have a ground connector. So,
even if you are using a FortiGate-5053 power converter tray to supply DC power
to your FortiGate-5050, you must us e th e pr oc ed u re “To connect the
FortiGate-5050 chassis to data center ground” on page 15 to connect the
FortiGate-5050 to data center ground.
Turning on FortiGate-5050 chassis power
If you are using a FortiGate-5053 power converter, connect the FortiGate-5053
power converter to AC power. When the FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies
start up the power supply fans should begin operating. Each FortiGate-5020/5050
power supply has two front panel power LEDs (see Figure 8 on page 16). When
the FortiGate-5053 power converter is operating normally, both of the
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply LEDs should be lit for each connected powe r
supply.
If you are using data center DC power, turn own the power to the chassis
according to the requirements of your data center DC power system.
Once the FortiGate-5050 chassis is connected to DC power you can turn on
power to the chassis by switching on the circuit breakers at the back of the
chassis (see Figure 2 on page 7 for location of the circuit breakers).
The FortiGate-5050 chassis powers up. If the FortiGate-5050 is operating
correctly, the Power LED on the right side of the chassis front panel should be lit
(see Figure 1 on page 6). As well, the Status LED on the FortiGate-5050 shelf
manager front panels should be lit (see Figure 5 on page 11). None of the LEDs
on the shelf alarm panel (SAP) should be lit (see Figure 3 on page 8).
When the chassis first starts up you shoul d also hear the cooling fans operating.
In addition, if any FortiGate-5000 series modules have been installed in the
chassis they should power on and their front panel LEDs should indicate that they
are operating normally.

FortiGate-5050 hardware procedures
This chapter assumes the chassis has been mounted and connected to a power
source as detailed in “Power connection and configuration” on page 13.
This chapter discusses:
•Mounting the FortiGate-5050 chassis
•Inserting 5000 series modules into a FortiGate-5050 chassis
•Using FortiSwitch-5003 modules for base backplane communication
Mounting the FortiGate-5050 chassis
Note: Mount the FortiGate chassis before installing the FortiGate-5000 series modules.
The FortiGate-5050 chassis must be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack. The
chassis requires 5U of vertical space in the rack.
If you install the FortiGate-5050 chassis in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly,
the operating ambient temperat ur e of the rack en vir on m en t ma y be gre a ter tha n
room ambient temperature. Make sure the operating ambient temperature does
not exceed the manufacturer's maximum rated ambient temperature.
Caution: The FortiGate-5050 chassis should not be operated as a free-standing appliance.
!
Air flow
For rack installation, make sure that the amount of air flow required for safe
operation of the FortiGate-5050 chassis is not compromised.
Inserting 5000 series modules into a FortiGate-5050 chassis
You can insert FortiGate-5000 series and FortiSwitch-5003 modules into the
FortiGate-5050 chassis. Arrange the modules in slots as required for your
configuration. FortiGate-5000 series modules can be installed in any
FortiGate-5050 slots. FortiSwitch-5003 modules can only be installed in slots 1
and 2.
Your FortiGate-5050 chassis may have been shipped with temporary slot filler
panels that include a warning message to read the FortiGate-500 0 documentation
before installing your product. The temporary slot fillers must be removed and all
slots filled; either with FortiGate-5000 series modules or with air baffle slot fillers.
Air baffle slot fillers are similar to blank FortiGate-5000 modules and are required
for proper cooling air flow.
Using FortiSwitch-5003 modules for base backplane communicationFortiGate-5050 hardware procedures
Caution: FortiGate-5000 series and FortiSwitch-5000 series modules must be protected
from static discharge and physical shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5000 series
!
and FortiSwitch-5000 series modules at a static-free workstation. Always wear a grounded
electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap when handling FortiGate-5000
series or FortiSwitch-5000 series modules.
Caution: Do not operate the FortiGate-5050 chassis with open slots on the front panel. For
optimum cooling performance and safety, the slots must contain a FortiGate-5000 series
!
module or an air baffle slot filler. As well the removable power supply panel must be
installed over the power connectors on the back of the chassis.
