It delivers enterprise-grade network security in a compact, fanless desktop form factor.

Features :

The FG-50G functions as a converged NGFW and SD-WAN device, powered by FortiOS and Fortinet's proprietary SD-WAN ASIC to provide high throughput with low latency and energy efficiency. It integrates tightly with the Fortinet Security Fabric and FortiGuard services to automate and optimize security across networks. This appliance is ideal for branch offices, remote sites, and small businesses needing real-time threat mitigation, intrusion prevention, SSL inspection, VPN, application and URL filtering.

Advanced Options :

Powered by the FortiASIC SP5 and SoC SOC4 architecture, the FG-50G delivers high performance across firewall, IPS, NGFW, IPsec VPN, and SSL inspection×without the power draw of traditional CPU-based devices. With desktop-friendly dimensions, the unit is silent (fanless) and versatile for wall or rack mounting×ideal for quiet offices or constrained network spaces. The appliance can be managed centrally via FortiCloud, FortiManager, or FortiAnalyzer for streamlined deployment and updates.
