It is important to carefully seat the FortiGate ASM-CX4 module all the way into the chassis.
Only then will the FortiGate ASM-CX4 module power-on.
To complete this procedure, you need:
• A FortiGate ASM-CX4 module.
• A FortiGate chassis with an empty AMC single-width (SW) opening.
• To avoid any electrostatic discharge, install in a static free area.
FortiGate ASM-CX4 modules are not hot swappable. The procedure for inserting the
FortiGate ASM-CX4 module into a FortiGate chassis slot requires the FortiGate unit to be
powered off.
To avoid any electrostatic discharge (ESD) when handling FortiGate ASM-CX4 modules,
install in a static free area.
