FortiGate 50G-5G desktop firewall

The FortiGate 50G-5G is a desktop network security appliance that combines firewall, SD-WAN and an embedded 5G modem in one unit. It targets distributed enterprise sites that need secure connectivity without a wired WAN circuit. The bundle includes one year of FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard Enterprise Protection.

Capacity and headroom

Hardware-accelerated throughput reaches 5 Gbps for 1518-byte packets and 4 Gbps for 64-byte packets with 2.42 µs latency. The system sustains 6 Mpps and 720 000 concurrent TCP sessions. A single WAN port and three LAN ports provide the wired headroom; the 5G modem adds cellular failover or primary WAN where fibre is absent.

Build and connectors

The fanless chassis measures 40.5 x 216 x 160 mm and weighs 1.0 kg, drawing 8.3 W average and 8.9 W maximum from a 12 V 3 A external adapter. Five SMA antenna ports support the dual-SIM 5G modem across bands n1, n2, n3, n5, n7, n8, n12, n13, n14, n18, n20 and n28. One USB port, one RJ45 console port and a FortiLink port complete the I/O.

Questions about this item

Will the 5G modem on this FG-50G-5G-BDL-809-12 work alongside my existing wired WAN router?

Yes, the appliance has one hardware-accelerated GE WAN port and three GE RJ45 LAN ports, so you can keep your current router on the wired WAN and use the built-in 5G modem as a secondary or failover link.

How can I verify the Telit Cinterion FN990A28-HP modem is active and passing traffic after installation?

In FortiOS, open the Modem dashboard widget to confirm the SIM status shows Connected, the signal quality bars are green, and the live throughput counters increment on the WAN interface.

What ships in the box with FG-50G-5G-BDL-809-12 and what must I source separately?

The package includes the desktop appliance, external 12 V DC power adapter, one USB port, one RJ45 console cable, and five SMA antennas for the 5G modem; you must supply two active 5G SIM cards and Ethernet patch cables.
