The FortiGate 1001F Series is a high-performance Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) designed to secure data centers and hybrid IT architectures at scale. By consolidating security and networking into a single platform, the FG-1001F protects the network edge with industry-leading throughput and low latency. It features dedicated 100GE QSFP28 and 25GE SFP28 slots, eliminating the need for additional bridging devices and simplifying network design for high-speed cores.
This bundle includes Appliance + FortiCare Premium + FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection (UTP) (5 Year).
Powered by Fortinet’s patented SPU NP7 and CP9 processors, the FG-1001F delivers hardware-accelerated performance for critical functions including IPsec VPN, SSL inspection, and VXLAN termination. This model distinguishes itself with 960GB of onboard SSD storage (2x 480GB), enabling robust local logging, reporting, and data retention without relying on external storage solutions. With integrated ZTNA enforcement and AI/ML-powered FortiGuard services, the FortiGate 1001F ensures consistent, coordinated protection against sophisticated cyber threats.
