Fortinet FG-80F-POE FortiGate 80F-POE next-generation firewall appliance

FG-80F-POE Overview

FortiGate 80F-POE is a physical Fortinet next-generation firewall; subscriptions and support are selected separately.

This SKU is the physical appliance without an embedded multi-year service bundle.

Order Composition and Delivery

This base FG order is a physical firewall without a named multi-year security bundle in the SKU. Shipping, destination, warranty region and hardware receipt are part of fulfillment, while FortiGuard and FortiCare coverage must be selected as separate orderable services. Record the serial number after delivery and associate later entitlements with the correct customer account. This separation is useful when service terms, support levels or activation dates need to be quoted independently from the appliance.

Service Scope and Boundaries

The base appliance is appropriate when hardware, support and security subscriptions are being purchased as separate line items. Build a bill of materials that names every required entitlement, term and registration owner; the chassis price alone is not a complete protected deployment.

Verified Platform Facts

• FortiGate 80F-POE has eight GE PoE ports and two RJ45/SFP shared-media WAN pairs.
• Fortinet specifies a 96 W total PoE budget and a maximum load of 30 W on each PoE/+ port.
• The 80F series specification lists 1.4 Gbps IPS throughput, 1 Gbps NGFW throughput and 900 Mbps threat-protection throughput.

FortiGate 80F-POE provides eight GE PoE ports for powered edge devices and two shared-media RJ45/SFP WAN pairs. The official specification gives a 96 W total PoE budget and a 30 W maximum per PoE+ port, so an endpoint-by-endpoint power schedule is required before purchase. Unlike FG-81F, this model has no 128 GB onboard SSD. The quotation should separate appliance power requirements, PoE load, uplink media and any security or support term bundled with the chassis.

Acceptance testing should measure each powered endpoint, aggregate PoE demand and behavior during appliance or power-adapter recovery. Map the six general PoE ports and two default FortiLink PoE ports to the approved topology, then verify both shared WAN pairs and production inspection policies. Keep the F80FP service codes with the physical serial and PoE inventory. If the calculated load approaches 96 W, preserve design margin rather than relying on every endpoint remaining at its nominal draw.

Term and Procurement Fit

This is an appliance-only purchase unless the SKU explicitly contains a bundle code. Select support and security services separately and align their activation with installation.

Confirm the exact appliance model, destination, power option, interfaces and separately purchased service coverage.

Compatibility and Related Models

F80FP service codes belong to the PoE-equipped FortiGate 80F-POE. Standard 80F, 81F and DSL serials require their own platform-specific orderable codes.

Warranty, Activation and Shipping

Confirm factory condition, warranty region, lead time, export terms and delivery destination. Bundle activation must be coordinated with appliance registration.
