The FortiGate 50G series is engineered to transform WAN architecture and provide robust perimeter protection for distributed enterprise locations. As a cornerstone of the Fortinet Security Fabric, this appliance integrates advanced networking features like SD-WAN with enterprise-grade security into a single operating system, FortiOS. This unified approach eliminates security silos, reduces operational complexity, and ensures consistent protection across hybrid environments.
Powered by the patented SP5 Security Processing Unit (SPU), the 50G delivers high-speed threat protection and deep SSL inspection that exceeds traditional CPU-based firewalls. This bundle includes three years of FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Enterprise Protection.
