You need the following tools and equipment to connect a FortiGate-5060 PEM to data
center DC power:
• A hex socket wrench is recommended for loosening and tightening the nuts on the
PEM power terminals.
• An electrostatic discharge (ESD) preventive wrist strap with connection cord.
• Two black AWG-10 stranded wires labelled -48V with attached Listed closed loop
single hole lugs with insulating boot suitable for minimum 10AWG copper wire, such as
3M model MH10-14RX.
• Two red AWG-10 stranded wires labelled RTN with attached Listed closed loop single
hole lugs with insulating boot suitable for minimum 10AWG copper wire, such as 3M
model MH10-14RX.
To connect a FortiGate-5060 PEM to data center DC power
1
Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist and to an ESD socket or to a bare metal
surface on the chassis or frame.
2
Turn off both power switches on the PEM.
3
Remove the clear plastic cover from the PEM power connectors.
4
Connect the DC power wires (see
):
• Connect two black -48V power wires from the DC power source to the connectors
on the FortiGate-5060 PEM labeled -48V/-60 V (the lower connectors on the PEM).
• Connect two red RTN return wires from data center RTN to the connectors on the
FortiGate-5060 PEM labeled RTN (the upper connectors on the PEM).
5
Make sure the power wires are secured using tie wraps if required.
6
If required, label the black wire -48V.
7
If required, label the red wire RTN.
8
Turn on the PEM switches.
Connecting the FortiGate-5060 chassis to data center ground
The FortiGate-5060 chassis includes a ground terminal on the lower left side of the
FortiGate-5060 back panel (see
). The Shelf ground terminal provides
two threads (M6) with a 15.88 mm (5/8“) spacing between thread centers to connect a
two-hole lug. This connector must be connected to data center ground.
You need the following tools and equipment to connect the FortiGate-5060 chassis to
ground:
Table 7: FortiGate-5060 PEM LEDs and controls
LED/Control
Description
HS (hot swap)
LED
Normally off. Blinking blue indicates that the PEM is entering the hot swap
mode. Solid Blue indicates that the PEM is in hot swap mode and can be
removed from the chassis.
Alarm LED
Normally off. Turns red when there is a problem with the power source, or if
one or more of the 8 PEM fuses are blown or missing.
OK (operate)
LED
Green when the PEM is powered and operating normally.
HS (hot
swap) button
Press the HS button to enter hot swap mode. When the HS LED becomes
solid blue you can remove the PEM from the chassis.
