FortiGate-5020 chassis

You can install one or two FortiGate-5000 series boards in the two slots of the FortiGate-5020 ATCA chassis. The FortiGate-5020 is a 4U chassis that contains two redundant AC to DC power supplies that connect to AC power. The FortiGate-5020 chassis also includes an internal cooling fan tray. If both slots contain FortiGate-5000 boards, the FortiGate-5020 chassis provides up to 16 FortiGate gigabit ethernet interfaces.

If you install the same FortiGate-5000 series board in both slots, you can configure the boards to operate as an HA cluster. HA heartbeat communications between the boards uses the FortiGate-5020 base backplane communication channel. No extra switching or other connections are required.

You can also use the base backplane channels for data communication between the FortiGate-5000 series boards installed in the FortiGate-5020 chassis. You can configure base backplane communication between two identical FortiGate-5000 series boards (for example between two FortiGate-5001SX boards) or between different FortiGate-5000 series boards (for example, between a FortiGate-5001SX and a FortiGate-5005FA2 board) as long as both boards use the same base backplane channel.

The FortiGate-5020 chassis can only be connected to AC power. Two redundant FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are factory installed in the FortiGate-5020 chassis.

Figure 9 shows the front of a FortiGate-5020 chassis. A FortiGate-5001SX board and a FortiGate-5005FA2 board are installed. The FortiGate-5020/5050 power supplies are factory installed behind the panel at the top of the chassis. The power LEDs for the power supplies are visible on the front panel as well.
