Fortinet FG-3400E-DC Firewall, 4x 100 GE QSFP28, 24x 25GE | Enterprise

Sustain critical security services at the center of your network with the Fortinet FG-3400E-DC. This appliance is built for environments that need high port density, fast east-west traffic handling, and room to grow without forcing a platform refresh. With 4 x 100 GE QSFP28 slots and 24 x 25 GE SFP28 slots, it fits high-capacity aggregation and core security roles where link speed and interface count directly affect architecture choices. The dual RJ45 management ports simplify out-of-band access and day-to-day administration, while the DC power design aligns with infrastructure teams standardizing on data center power layouts. For organizations comparing midrange appliances against higher-capacity platforms, this model provides the interface headroom needed to avoid oversubscription and reduce bottlenecks at the firewall layer. Choose this appliance when the network design calls for more than basic perimeter protection. It is suited to large enterprise deployments, campus cores, and distributed environments that need to inspect traffic without constraining future bandwidth plans. The result is a firewall platform that supports current demand and preserves architectural flexibility for the next expansion cycle.
