Description
The FortiGate 401F Firewall is a powerful next-generation firewall designed to deliver high-speed enterprise security and advanced threat protection. Built with Fortinet’s NP7 (Network Processor 7) and CP9 (Content Processor 9) ASICs, the FortiGate 401F accelerates security services directly in hardware to ensure ultra-fast inspection and minimal network latency.
With 79.5 Gbps firewall throughput, 12 Gbps IPS performance, and 10 Gbps NGFW throughput, the FortiGate 401F is engineered to handle demanding enterprise network environments. The system also provides 9 Gbps threat protection throughput, ensuring advanced protection against modern cyber threats while maintaining optimal performance for business-critical applications.
For organizations managing encrypted traffic, the FortiGate 401F offers 8 Gbps SSL inspection and 55 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput, enabling secure connections across distributed offices, cloud environments, and remote workforces. The firewall supports up to 7.8 million concurrent TCP sessions, making it ideal for large enterprise networks with heavy traffic loads.
Connectivity is designed for high-speed enterprise deployments. The FortiGate 401F includes multiple 10GE SFP+ slots, fiber SFP ports, and RJ45 copper interfaces, providing flexibility for both fiber and copper network environments. This combination enables seamless integration into existing infrastructure while supporting future network expansion.
To ensure reliability in mission-critical deployments, the firewall features dual hot-swappable power supplies with 1+1 redundancy, guaranteeing uninterrupted operation even during hardware maintenance. Built-in 2×480 GB SSD storage provides onboard logging and security event storage, improving forensic analysis and network monitoring capabilities.
The appliance also integrates a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure cryptographic key storage and authentication. With its compact 1U rack-mount design, the FortiGate 401F fits easily into enterprise racks or data center environments while maintaining efficient power consumption.
The FortiGate 401F Firewall is an ideal solution for enterprises seeking high-throughput network security, hardware-accelerated threat inspection, and reliable connectivity for modern digital infrastructures.
