FortiGate 40F desktop firewall with 5 GE ports

The FortiGate 40F is a desktop network security appliance built for small offices and branch locations that need consolidated threat protection. It ships with a three-year FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection subscription included in the bundle. The unit provides five Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports for WAN and LAN connectivity. Management is handled through Fortinet's centralized platform for simplified operations.

Throughput limits at Gigabit Ethernet line rate

Firewall throughput reaches 5 Gbps for 1518, 512 and 64-byte UDP packets, while NGFW throughput is 4,800 Mbps and threat protection throughput is 5,600 Mbps. IPS throughput is rated at 1 Gbps, matching the Gigabit Ethernet interface speed. The appliance supports 700,000 concurrent sessions and 35,000 new TCP sessions per second with a firewall latency of 2.97 µs for 64-byte packets. Maximum power consumption is 9.46 W from the external DC adapter.

Verify rack or wall space and subscription alignment

The desktop form factor measures 1.5 by 8.5 by 6.3 inches and weighs 2.2 lbs, so confirm adequate shelf or wall-mount clearance before deployment. The bundle includes a DC power adapter, Ethernet cable, adapter plugs and a QuickStart guide. Ensure the three-year FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard UTP coverage matches your support and licensing requirements for the intended lifecycle.

Questions about this item

Which FortiGate 40F bundle should I choose for a small office needing three years of security services?

The FG-40F-BDL-950-36 includes the 40F appliance with five Gigabit RJ45 ports plus a three-year FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Unified Threat Protection subscription, so there is no separate licence to add.

What does the 4,800 Mbps NGFW throughput mean when the box is inspecting real traffic?

It indicates the maximum rate at which the appliance can process application-layer inspection with IPS and application control enabled; actual throughput will vary with packet size, rule count and feature mix.

What does the 10/100/1000Base-T network standard cap in practice?

Each of the five RJ45 ports negotiates up to 1 Gbps full-duplex, so total aggregate throughput cannot exceed the 5 Gbps firewall ceiling even with all ports active.
