FortiGate 3000F DC Fortinet FG-3000F-DC | Firewall, UTM, Enterprise

Keep critical traffic moving while enforcing security controls at data-center scale. FortiGate 3000F DC is built for environments where throughput, port density, and deterministic performance matter more than checkbox features. With 6 x 100GE QSFP28 slots, 16 x 10GE SFP+/25GE SFP28 slots, and 18 x 10GBase-T interfaces, it gives architects the mix of high-speed uplinks and flexible aggregation needed for modern east-west and north-south traffic patterns. SPU NP7 and CP9 hardware acceleration help preserve performance when security services are active, reducing the tradeoff between inspection depth and line-rate forwarding. Dual DC power supplies support resilient deployment in infrastructure racks where uptime is non-negotiable. This model is a fit for teams consolidating multiple security functions into a single platform without sacrificing port availability or backbone connectivity. For organizations standardizing on Fortinet security architecture, the 3000F DC provides the scale and interface mix expected in enterprise core, aggregation, and high-density perimeter roles. It is designed for buyers who need more than a midrange appliance and want a platform sized for sustained production traffic, not lab conditions.
