The FortiGate 50G series runs on FortiOS, the industry's first converged networking and security operating system, enabling businesses to gain benefits of operational efficiency and unified protection. As a cornerstone of the Fortinet Security Fabric platform, the FortiGate NGFW works seamlessly with FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services to deliver coordinated, automated, end-to-end threat protection in real time.
The 50G family is built on the patented SD-WAN-based ASIC SP5, which delivers unmatched performance over traditional CPUs with lower cost and reduced power consumption. This application-specific design further accelerates the convergence of networking and security functions in the 50G family to optimize secure connections and deliver a robust user experience at branch locations.
