Before use, the FortiCarrier-5001A board must be correctly inserted into an
Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture (ACTA) chassis such as
the FortiGate-5140, FortiGate-5050, or FortiGate-5020 chassis.
Before inserting the board into a chassis you should make sure the SW-11 switch
is set correctly.
In the available Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) double-width module (ADM)
opening on the FortiCarrier-5001A-DW front panel you can install a supported
FortiGate ADM module such as the FortiGate-ADM-XB2 or the
FortiGate-ADM-FB8.
Caution: If you are installing a FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module you should install the
FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module in the chassis RTM slot first, before you install the
FortiCarrier-5001A board to avoid possible damage. Follow the instructions in the
FortiGate-RTM-XB2 System Guide
Caution: Because FortiCarrier-5001A boards do not support hot swapping AMC modules,
the FortiCarrier-5001A board must be disconnected from power before you install a
FortiGate AMC module. Also, the FortiCarrier-5001A-DW left (top) handle must be opened
to install a FortiGate AMC module. See
page
21.
Caution: Do not operate the FortiCarrier-5001A board with an open AMC opening. For
optimum cooling performance and safety, the AMC opening must contain an AMC slot filler
panel or a FortiGate AMC module.
Note: FortiCarrier-5001A boards are hot swappable even if the FortiCarrier-5001A board
contains an AMC module and you have installed a FortiGate-RTM-XB2 module for the
FortiCarrier-5001A board.
