FortiGate 4400F DC Fortinet 12x 100GE, 18x SFP28 | Data Center Firewall

When the firewall sits in the path of critical traffic, the platform has to do more than inspect packets. The FortiGate 4400F DC is designed for dense, high-speed environments where throughput, port flexibility, and hardware acceleration directly affect application performance and operational stability. This model provides 12x 100GE/40GE QSFP28 slots and 18x 25GE/10GE SFP28 slots, giving network teams the connectivity needed for core, aggregation, and high-speed access designs. Dual GE RJ45 management ports support clean out-of-band access, while SPU NP7 and CP9 acceleration help preserve performance as security services are applied. With 2 DC power supplies, the 4400F DC is aligned to data center infrastructure requirements and built for environments that cannot afford a general-purpose appliance at the edge. It is a strong fit when you need a firewall that can sit closer to line-rate traffic, support modern high-bandwidth links, and justify its place in a premium security stack through density and processing headroom.
