Connecting the FortiGate-5050 chassis to AC power using the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray
Redundant FortiGate-5050 power supplies
You can supply redundant power to a FortiGate-5050 chassis by adding a third
FortiGate-5020/5050 power supply to the FortiGate-5053 power converter tray
(see Figure 20). If one of the FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies in the
FortiGate-5053 power converter tray fails, the third power supply takes its place
without a power interruption.

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 the entire FortiGate-5050 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.
