Before installing the FortiGate-5001SX module in a chassis you must have
installed RAM DIMMs and verified the JP3 jumper setting. You can also install the
SPF transceivers before inserting the module.

• "Installing SFP transceivers" on page 49
• "Changing jumper settings" on page 49
FortiGate-5001SX modules are hot swappable. The procedure for inserting the
FortiGate-5001SX module into a FortiGate-5000 series chassis slot is the same
whether or not the FortiGate-5000 series chassis is powered on or not.

Caution: Do not carry the FortiGate-5001SX module by holding the extraction levers.
When inserting or removing the FortiGate-5001SX module from a chassis slot, handle the
module by the front panel. The extraction levers are designed for positioning and locking
the FortiGate-5001SX module into a slot in a chassis only and should not be used for
handling the module. If the extraction levers become bent or damaged the
FortiGate-5001SX module may not align correctly in the chassis slot and the left extraction
lever may not activate the power switch.
