Hardware installation
Before use, the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC 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 RAM DIMMS are
installed and FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC jumpers are set. SFP transceivers must
also be installed for interfaces 1 to 4 before these interfaces can be connected to
network devices.

RAM DIMMs
The FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board ships with two RAM DIMMs installed on the
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC circuit board. You should confirm that the RAM DIMMs
are installed correctly before inserting the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board into a
chassis.
To install FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC RAM DIMMs
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board
• Two RAM DIMMs to be installed into the FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC board
RAM DIMM slots
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord
1
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal
surface on a chassis or frame.
2
Remove RAM DIMMs from their antistatic packaging.
!
Caution:
FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards must be protected from static discharge and
physical shock. Only handle or work with FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards at a static-free
workstation. Always wear a grounded electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap
when handling FortiGate-5001FA2-LENC boards.
!
Caution:
Handle DIMMs by the edges only. DIMMs are ESD-sensitive components that
can be damaged by mishandling.
