FS-448E-POE provides forty-eight Gigabit RJ45 access ports supporting 802.3af/at PoE and four 10GE SFP+ uplinks. Fortinet specifies a combined PoE budget of 421 W for this exact ordering model. The forty-eight powered ports share that budget, so assess the connected-device load rather than assuming every port can supply its individual maximum simultaneously.
The adjacent FS-448E-FPOE model has a 772 W budget in the same datasheet, while the base FS-448E has no PoE budget. Those variants are not equivalent power configurations. The POE model also provides a dedicated 10/100 management interface and an RJ45 serial console; neither should be counted as an extra Gigabit access port. Its SFP+ uplinks support 1GE SFP compatibility, subject to selecting supported modules.
The device occupies one rack unit and measures 44 x 410 x 440 mm in height, depth and width, with a listed weight of 6.26 kg. Plan rack depth, cable clearance and handling around the powered model's dimensions rather than borrowing the shorter non-PoE chassis dimensions. Fortinet specifies side-to-back airflow and a 0–50 degree Celsius operating range. The listed AC supply requirement is 100–240 V at 50/60 Hz; confirm the actual supplied power configuration and cords with the quotation.
The datasheet identifies this as a Layer 2/3 switch compatible with FortiGate switch-controller management. That description does not replace a software compatibility check for the intended deployment. Fortinet lists an FS-SW-LIC-400 advanced-feature license separately, so verify which features and entitlements are required instead of assuming all advanced functionality is included. Request the exact FS-448E-POE model, endpoint power demand, uplink optics and required accessories; the hardware specification alone does not establish availability or a shipping date.
