FPM-7620F processing module
The FPM-7620F processor module is a high-performance worker module that processes sessions load balanced to it by
FIMs over the chassis fabric backplane. The FPM-7620F includes two 400Gbps data connections to the FIMs over the
chassis fabric backplane and two 50Gbps management connections to the FIMs over base backplane. FPM-7620Fs are
installed in chassis slots 3 and up.
The FPM-7620F also includes two front panel 100GigE QSFP28 fabric channel data interfaces (1 and 2) and eight
10/25GigE SFP28 fabric channel data interfaces (3 to 10). Interfaces 1 and 2 can be connected to 100Gbps data
networks. Interfaces 3 to 10 can be connected to 25Gbps data networks. FPM data network interfaces increase the
number of data interfaces supported by FortiGate-7000F. Data traffic received by these interfaces is sent over the fabric
backplane to the FIM NP7 processors to be load balanced back to the FPMs.
The FPM-7620F processes sessions using a dual CPU configuration, accelerates network traffic processing with two
NP7 processors and accelerates content processing with eight CP9 processors. The NP7 network processors are
connected by the FIM switch fabric so all supported traffic types can be fast path accelerated by the NP7 processors.

FPM-7620F mounting hardware
Use the module levers, power sliders, and secure screws to insert, secure and remove the module from the chassis.
Module levers
Carefully slide the module all of the way into the chassis slot and fully close the module levers to seat the module into the
chassis slot and to connect the module to the chassis backplane connectors. When both module levers are fully closed,
the power sliders can be lowered to their bottom position, locking the module levers and turning on power to the module.
