You can install the following types of SFP transceivers for connectors 1, 2, 3,
and 4:
• SFP fiber transceivers
• SFP 1000Base-LX, SM module
• SFP 1000Base-SX, MM module (multimode)
• SFP copper transceivers
• SFP 1000Base-T, SERDES version only (SGMII version not supported)
The FortiGate-5001FA2 module ships with two RAM DIMMs that you must insert
into two RAM DIMM slots on the FortiGate-5001FA2 circuit board. Install the RAM
DIMMs before inserting the FortiGate-5001FA2 module into a chassis.

To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5001FA2 module
• Two RAM DIMMs shipped with the FortiGate-5001FA2 module
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with
connection cord
