		Base-T		10/100/1000Base-T copper networks.
CONSOLE	DB-9	9600 bps	RS-232 serial	Serial connection to the command line
		8/N/1		interface.
USB	USB			FortiUSB key firmware updates and
				configuration backup (FortiOS v3.0).

Base backplane gigabit interfaces

The FortiGate-5001SX port9 and port10 base backplane gigabit interfaces can be used for HA heartbeat communication between FortiGate-5001SX boards installed in the same or in different FortiGate-5000 chassis. You can also configure FortiGate-5001SX boards to use the base backplane interfaces for data communication between FortiGate boards. To support base backplane communications your FortiGate-5140 or 5050 chassis must include one or more FortiSwitch-5003 boards. FortiSwitch-5003 boards are installed in chassis slots 1 and 2. The FortiGate-5020 chassis supports base backplane communication with no additions or changes to the chassis.

For information about base backplane communication in FortiGate-5140 and FortiGate-5050 chassis, see the FortiGate-5000 Base Backplane Communication Guide. For information about the FortiSwitch-5003 board, see the FortiSwitch-5003 Guide.
