The FortiGate 51G-SFP-POE-BDL-950-36 bundle streamlines SD-Branch deployments by combining the FortiGate 51G-SFP-POE firewall with FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection (UTP) (3-year contract). Built on the Fortinet SP5 ASIC, it delivers high-speed inspection with firewall throughput of 5 / 5 / 4 Gbps (1518/512/64 byte UDP packets). With 64GB of internal SSD storage, this bundle adds onboard storage capacity within a compact desktop form factor.
Designed for flexibility and reduced equipment footprint, the unit features a fanless desktop form factor ideal for noise-sensitive environments. It includes a dedicated GE SFP port for fiber uplinks and multiple PoE+ capable RJ45 ports (including WAN2 and FortiLink), providing 60W of total PoE budget to power essential branch devices such as access points and IP phones directly from the firewall.
