The FortiGate-5001FA2 security system module is a high-performance FortiGate
security system similar to the FortiGate-5001SX security system but with added
accelerated packet forwarding and policy enforcement for two of its eight Gigabit
ethernet interfaces. Accelerated packet forwarding and policy enforcement results
in accelerated small packet performance required for voice, video, and other
multimedia streaming applications.
The FortiGate-5001FA2 module includes the following features:
• A total of eight gigabit interfaces
• Two accelerated gigabit interfaces that can accept SFP fiber or copper
gigabit transceivers (interfaces 1 and 2)
• Two gigabit interfaces that can accept Small Formfactor Pluggable (SFP)
fiber or copper gigabit transceivers (interfaces 1 and 2)
• Four 1000Base-T gigabit copper network interfaces (interfaces 5, 6, 7, 8)
• DB-9 RS-232 serial console connection
• USB connector
• Mounting hardware
• LED status indicators
The FortiGate-5001FA2 module comes supplied with four fiber or four copper
SFP transceivers. Before you can connect FortiGate-5001FA2 interfaces 1 to 4,
you must insert the SPF transceivers into the FortiGate-5001FA2 front panel cage
slots numbered 1 to 4.
