Before use, the FortiGate-5001C board must be correctly inserted into an Advanced
Telecommunications Computing Architecture (ATCA) chassis that can provide sufficient
power and cooling (for example, the FortiGate-5060 chassis or the NEBS-compliant
FortiGate-5140-R chassis).

Installing SFP+ transceivers
Troubleshooting
The FortiGate-5001C board ships with two SR SFP+ transceivers that you must install for
normal operation of the FortiGate-5001C front panel interfaces (port1 and port2). You can
also configure front panel interfaces to operated at 1-gigabit and install SFP transceivers.
The SFP+ or SPF transceivers are inserted into cage sockets numbered 1 and 2 on the
FortiGate-5001C front panel. You can install the transceivers before or after inserting the
FortiGate-5001C board into a FortiGate-5000 series or other ATCA chassis.
You can install the following types of transceivers for connectors 1 and 2:
• SFP+ SR (10 gigabits)
• SFP+ LR (10 gigabits)
• SPF (1gigabit)
To install SFP+ or SPF transceivers
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5001C board
• Two or more SFP+ or SFP transceivers
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist or ankle strap with connection cord
FortiGate-5001C boards must be protected from static discharge and physical shock.
Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001C boards at a static-free workstation. Always
wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap when handling
FortiGate-5001C boards.
1 Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an available ESD socket or wrist strap
terminal.
