The Fortinet FortiGate 701G Series Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) utilizes advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to provide comprehensive threat protection at scale. Driven by Fortinet's patented Network Processor 7 (NP7) and the tenth-generation Content Processor (CP10), this appliance delivers superior performance, including 38 Gbps of IPS throughput and 50 Gbps of Application Control throughput. The inclusion of 960GB of onboard SSD storage allows for extensive local logging, providing deep visibility and data retention critical for compliance and forensic analysis.
This FG-701G-BDL-809-60 bundle pairs the FortiGate 701G appliance with FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Enterprise Protection for a 5-year term, helping keep enterprise deployments protected and supported throughout the subscription period. Designed for modern, high-bandwidth networks, the FortiGate 701G features a versatile array of interfaces, including four 25 GE SFP28 slots, four 10 GE SFP+ slots, and eight 5 GE RJ45 ports. It incorporates FortiSentry, a specialized hardware module that continuously monitors the integrity of the FortiOS filesystem to protect against unauthorized modifications and malicious tampering. With redundant dual internal AC power supplies included by default, the FG-701G offers the resilience needed for mission-critical deployments in data centers, campus edges, and hybrid environments.
