The FortiSwitch-5003A board must be fully installed in a chassis slot, with the
handles closed and locked and retention screws fully tightened for the
FortiSwitch-5003A board to receive power and operate normally. If the
FortiSwitch-5003A board is not receiving power, the HS LED glows solid blue and
all other LEDs remain off. See
It is important to carefully seat the FortiSwitch-5003A board all the way into the
chassis, to not use too much force on the handles, and to make sure that the
handles are properly locked. Only then will the FortiSwitch-5003A board power-on
and start up correctly.
FortiSwitch-5003A boards are hot swappable. The procedure for inserting
a FortiSwitch-5003A board into a chassis slot is the same whether or not the
chassis is powered on.
To insert a FortiSwitch-5003A board into a chassis slot
Caution: Do not carry the FortiSwitch-5003A board by holding the handles or retention
screws. When inserting or removing the FortiSwitch-5003A board from a chassis slot,
handle the board by the front panel. The handles are not designed for carrying the board. If
the handles become bent or damaged the FortiSwitch-5003A board may not align correctly
in the chassis slot.
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiSwitch-5003A board
• An ATCA chassis with an empty hub/switch fabric slot
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
Caution: FortiSwitch-5003A boards must be protected from static discharge and physical
shock. Only handle or work with FortiSwitch-5003A boards at a static-free workstation.
Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when
handling FortiSwitch-5003A boards.
1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal
surface on the chassis or frame.
2 If required, remove the protective metal frame that the FortiSwitch-5003A board
has been shipped in.
3 Insert the FortiSwitch-5003A board into the empty slot in the chassis.
4 Unlock the handles by squeezing the handle locks.
