The Fortinet FortiGate 4801F-NEBS is a high-performance Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) engineered specifically for carrier-grade environments and hyperscale data centers that require NEBS Level 3 compliance. This robust 4U rackmount appliance is built to withstand rigorous environmental conditions while delivering industry-leading security and connectivity. Powered by Fortinet's specialized NP7 and CP9 security processing units, it offers a massive firewall throughput of 3.1 Tbps, ensuring that security measures do not become a bottleneck for critical network traffic.
Equipped with ultra-high-speed interfaces, including 8x 400GE/200GE/100GE/40GE QSFP-DD slots and 12x 200GE/100GE/40GE QSFP56/QSFP28/QSFP+ slots, the FG-4801F-NEBS is designed to handle elephant flows and support massive data aggregation. The unit includes dual 1.92TB internal SSDs for local log storage and reporting, enhancing visibility and compliance capabilities. With four AC power supplies and a design focused on reliability, this firewall provides the resilience needed for core networks and telecommunications infrastructure.
