The Fortinet FortiGate 900G 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 ninth-generation Content Processor (CP9), this appliance delivers superior performance, including 42 Gbps of IPS throughput and 74.8 Gbps of Application Control throughput. Designed for enterprises requiring massive throughput and port density, the FG-900G is capable of handling up to 229.5 million packets per second, ensuring minimal performance impact under heavy traffic and deep inspection.
This FG-900G-BDL-950-12 bundle includes FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection (UTP) services for 1 year.
Tailored for modern, high-bandwidth data centers and large campus edges, the FortiGate 900G features an extensive and flexible interface set, including four 25 GE SFP28 slots, four 10 GE SFP+ slots, eight 1 GE SFP slots, and sixteen GE RJ45 switch ports plus dedicated GE management and 2.5 GE/GE HA ports. It incorporates a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) to generate, store, and authenticate cryptographic keys, helping harden the appliance with hardware-based security mechanisms. With redundant dual hot swappable AC power supplies included by default, the FG-900G offers the resilience needed for mission-critical deployments and high availability configurations.
