FortiGate FG-70F
The Fortinet FortiGate FG-70F is a compact Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) and Secure SD-WAN appliance designed for enterprise branch offices, mid-sized businesses, and distributed networks. It combines firewall protection, IPS, application control, VPN, SSL inspection, threat protection, and SD-WAN capabilities in a fanless desktop platform.
Description
The FortiGate FG-70F is part of Fortinet’s FortiGate 70F Series, providing an integrated platform for network security and secure connectivity at branch and distributed enterprise locations. The appliance combines Next-Generation Firewall, Secure SD-WAN, network control, and security services under FortiOS.
The FG-70F uses Fortinet’s SoC4 security acceleration architecture, designed to accelerate networking and security functions while maintaining a compact, energy-efficient form factor. It is suitable for organizations requiring reliable protection without deploying a larger rack-mounted firewall.
The appliance provides 10 × Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports, consisting of 2 WAN ports, 1 DMZ port, and 7 internal ports, with 2 internal ports configured for FortiLink by default. It also includes a USB port and RJ45 console interface.
Fortinet specifies up to 10 Gbps firewall throughput, 1.4 Gbps IPS throughput, 1 Gbps NGFW throughput, and 800 Mbps threat-protection throughput. IPsec VPN throughput is rated at up to 6.1 Gbps. Actual performance depends on traffic characteristics and enabled security services.
