The Fortinet FortiGate 1801F-DC combines hyperscale security performance with the reliability of DC power, making it the ideal choice for service providers, telecommunications hubs, and data centers with DC power infrastructure. This high-end Next-Generation Firewall is built on Fortinet’s purpose-built NP7 and CP9 security processing units, delivering up to 198 / 197 / 140 Gbps IPv4 firewall throughput (1518/512/64 byte, UDP) and 22 Gbps IPS throughput. It ensures that security never becomes a bottleneck in high-speed networks, providing advanced threat protection without compromising performance.
This bundle (FG-1801F-DC-BDL-809-12) includes FortiGate appliance + FortiCare Premium + FortiGuard Enterprise Protection (1 Year).
Equipped with 2x 960GB NVMe SSDs, the FG-1801F-DC offers significant onboard storage for local logging and operational visibility. The appliance features a versatile range of high-speed interfaces, including four 100GE QSFP28 slots and twelve 25GE SFP28 slots, allowing for flexible connectivity and segmentation. With its integrated Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) enforcement and robust SD-WAN capabilities, the FortiGate 1801F-DC secures the network edge at scale while simplifying management through the FortiOS unified platform.
