Before use, the FortiGate-5005FA2 module must be correctly inserted into a
FortiGate-5140, FortiGate-5050, or FortiGate-5020 chassis.
SFP transceivers must also be installed before the FortiGate-5005FA2 module
can be connected to network devices.
This section describes:
• Installing SFP transceivers
• Installing FortiGate-5005FA2 modules
• Removing a FortiGate-5005FA2 module
• Troubleshooting
The FortiGate-5005FA2 module ships with eight SFP transceivers that you must
install for normal operation of the FortiGate-5005FA2 module. The SFP
transceivers are inserted into cage sockets numbered 1 to 8 on the
FortiGate-5005FA2 front panel. You can install the SFP transceivers before or
after inserting the FortiGate-5005FA2 module into a FortiGate chassis.
Note: Cage slots 7 and 8 are rotated 180 degrees. Install the SFP transceivers in slots 7
and 8 inverted compared to the orientation of the transceivers in slots 1 to 6.
You can install the following types of SFP transceivers for connectors 1 to 8:
• 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)
To install SFP transceivers
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5005FA2 module
• Eight SFP transceivers
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with
connection cord
Caution: FortiGate-5005FA2 modules must be protected from static discharge and
physical shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5005FA2 modules at a static-free
workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or
ankle strap when handling FortiGate-5005FA2 modules.
Attach the ESD wrist or ankle strap to your wrist or ankle and to an ESD socket or
to a bare metal surface on the chassis or frame.
Remove the caps from SFP cage sockets on the FortiGate-5005FA2 front panel.
