FPM-7620E processing module

The FPM-7620E processing module is a high-performance worker module that processes sessions load balanced to it
by FortiGate-7000 series interface (FIM) modules over the chassis fabric backplane. The FPM-7620E can be installed in
any FortiGate-7000 series chassis in slots 3 and up.
The FPM-7620E includes two 80Gbps connections to the chassis fabric backplane and two 1Gbps connections to the
base backplane. The FPM-7620E processes sessions using a dual CPU configuration, accelerates network traffic
processing with four NP6 processors, and accelerates content processing with eight CP9 processors. The NP6 network
processors are connected by the FIM switch fabric so all supported traffic types can be fast path accelerated by the NP6
processors.

Mounting hardware

Use the module levers, power sliders, and secure screws to insert, secure and remove the module from the chassis.

Module levers

Carefully slide the module all of the way into the chassis slot and fully close the module levers to seat the module into
the chassis slot and to connect the module to the chassis backplane connectors. When both module levers are fully
closed, the power sliders can be lowered to their bottom position, locking the module levers and turning on power to the
module.
Raise the power sliders to unlock the module levers and turn off module power. Then open the module levers to eject
the module from the backplane connectors; allowing the module to be removed from the chassis.
The module lever mechanism helps reduce the engagement force required to insert or eject the module from the
backplane connectors.
