The FortiGate 50G-SFP-POE series simplifies SD-Branch architecture by integrating advanced security, SD-WAN, and power delivery into a single compact appliance. Built on the Fortinet Secure SD-WAN ASIC SP5, it delivers high-speed inspection while providing integrated PoE+ capabilities to support essential downstream devices such as wireless access points, simplifying branch infrastructure.
Designed for flexibility and reduced equipment footprint, the FG-50G-SFP-POE features a fanless desktop form factor ideal for noise-sensitive environments. It includes a dedicated SFP port for fiber uplinks and multiple PoE+ capable RJ45 ports (including a PoE+ WAN port and FortiLink), allowing for diverse connectivity options and streamlined deployment in retail stores, small offices, and distributed enterprise sites.
