Fortinet FortiGate 50G Next-Generation Firewall, 5x GE RJ45, Desktop
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Fortinet FortiGate 50G Next-Generation Firewall (FG-50G) - Local Warranty
Secure, Fast Networking for Branch Offices
The Fortinet FortiGate 50G (FG-50G) is a G-series desktop next-generation firewall that brings NGFW security, SD-WAN and VPN together in one compact appliance for small offices and distributed branch sites. It runs FortiOS, Fortinet's converged networking and security operating system.
A Clear Step Up from the 30G
Fortinet rates the FortiGate 50G at 5 Gbps firewall throughput (1518-byte UDP), 2.25 Gbps IPS, 1.25 Gbps NGFW and 1.1 Gbps threat protection, with 4.4 Gbps of IPsec VPN throughput. It handles up to 720,000 concurrent sessions and 85,000 new sessions per second.
Five Gigabit Ports with FortiLink
The FG-50G provides 5 x GE RJ45 ports: a WAN port, FortiLink port A for managing FortiSwitch access switches, and internal ports 1 to 3. A USB 3.0 port, RJ45 console port and a BLE/reset button round out the hardware, and the unit runs from an external 12 V DC adapter (100–240 V AC, 50/60 Hz).
Choose Hardware Only or a UTP Bundle
Buy the appliance on its own, or bundle it with 1, 3 or 5 years of FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection (UTP). The UTP subscription covers IPS, Advanced Malware Protection, Application Control, URL, DNS & Video Filtering, Antispam and FortiCare Premium support.

Runs FortiOS and is managed through the FortiOS web GUI and CLI. The FortiLink port lets the FortiGate act as the switch controller for up to 8 FortiSwitch units, and FortiGate models also manage FortiAP wireless access points from the same interface. Cloud management is available separately as a FortiManagement Cloud subscription; ask us for a quote.
