The FortiGate 401F-DC integrates seamlessly into the Fortinet Security Fabric, offering a unified framework for managing and securing networks. This device utilizes the FortiOS operating system to enable enforcement of security policies and holistic visibility across the entire attack surface. With its specialized hardware architecture, specifically the Network Processor NP7 and Content Processor CP9, the 401F-DC delivers accelerated performance for critical network functions including VXLAN termination, hardware logging, and SSL decryption. This FG-401F-DC-BDL-950-36 bundle includes FortiCare Premium + FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection (UTP) for 3 years.
Designed for mission-critical networks requiring DC power, the FortiGate 401F-DC ensures operational continuity with dual hot-swappable DC power supplies. It features extensive connectivity options, including 10GE SFP+ ultra-low latency slots and onboard 960 GB SSD storage (2x 480 GB). The appliance supports dynamic segmentation and secure SD-WAN, helping to reduce complexity and risk in hybrid IT networks while facilitating universal zero-trust network access (ZTNA) to control user access to applications.
