The Fortinet FortiGate 4801F-DC-NEBS is an ultra-high-performance Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) built for demanding carrier and hyperscale data center environments. This model supports NEBS Level 3 deployment requirements and DC power infrastructure for telecommunications facilities. Powered by Fortinet's patented SPU NP7 and CP9 security processing units, the FG-4801F-DC-NEBS delivers up to 3.1 Tbps firewall throughput with ultra-low latency for high-volume traffic security at scale.
Designed for high-speed interconnectivity and resiliency, this appliance includes 8x 400GE/200GE/100GE/40GE QSFP-DD slots and 12x 200GE/100GE/40GE QSFP56/QSFP28/QSFP+ slots to support high-bandwidth backbones and data center interconnects. It integrates 2x 1.92TB SSDs for onboard storage and supports a DC power input range of -72V to -40V with redundant hot-swappable power supplies for critical infrastructure deployments.
