You can install up to 14 FortiGate-5000 series modules 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
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 base backplane communications. Base backplane communications can
be used for HA heartbeat communications and for data communications. You can
add a second FortiSwitch-5003 module for redundancy. The First
FortiSwitch-5003 module should be installed in slot 2, the second in slot 1.
You can mix and match any combination of FortiGate-5000 series modules in the
FortiGate-5140 chassis. For example, you could install four FortiGate-5005FA2
modules, four FortiGate-5001SX modules, and four FortiGate-5001FA2 modules.
You can also install FortiController-5208 and FortiGate-5005FA2 modules in a
FortiGate-5140 chassis to create a FortiGate-5005-DIST security system.
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. You can also use the FortiSwitch-5003 module to
operate HA clusters consisting of FortiGate-5000 series modules installed in
multiple FortiGate-5140 chassis.
The FortiGate-5140 chassis also includes 14 backplane slots which are used by
some FortiGate-5000 series modules.
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.
