FWF-51E combines the FortiGate 51E security platform with integrated 802.11a/b/g/n wireless. The chassis provides two GE RJ45 WAN interfaces, five GE RJ45 switch interfaces, one USB port and one RJ45 console port. The 32 GB SSD distinguishes this model from non-storage variants used in the same branch-security family.
Fortinet publishes 2.5 Gbps firewall throughput, 350 Mbps IPS throughput, 220 Mbps NGFW throughput and 160 Mbps threat-protection throughput for this series. These laboratory figures are platform references; production sizing should account for enabled inspection profiles, traffic mix, firmware and wireless use.
FWF-51E is hardware, not a FortiGuard service bundle. A quotation should separately identify the appliance condition, power supply, wireless regulatory domain, FortiOS support status and any FortiCare or security subscription. It should not be confused with FWF-50E, FG-51E or a BDL order code.
