The FortiGate 400F is a 1U next-generation firewall (NGFW) built on Fortinet’s ASIC-based architecture, delivering high throughput and multi-gigabit connectivity. It integrates firewall, VPN, intrusion prevention, SSL inspection and application control under FortiOS — making it a robust security gateway for mid- to large-enterprise network edges, campus cores, or distributed data-centre perimeters.
Ideal deployment:
The FortiGate 400F is well suited for enterprise WAN edge gateways, campus cores or distributed office networks that need a balance of throughput, VPN capacity, and security services without moving to high-end, large-scale appliances.
It fits use cases like internet uplink security, site-to-site VPN termination, branch or regional office edge, SSL inspection and threat protection for mid-size traffic volumes. The interface flexibility and session capacity also make it ideal for managed SD-WAN, hybrid-cloud gateways, or multi-site enterprise security perimeters.
Firewall throughput: up to 79.5 Gbps (IPv4/IPv6, 1518-byte UDP) / 70 Gbps (64-byte UDP)
IPsec VPN throughput: up to 55 Gbps
IPS throughput: 12 Gbps
NGFW throughput: 10 Gbps
Threat-protection throughput: 9 Gbps
Session & scale capacity: ~7.8 million concurrent sessions, up to 500,000 new sessions/sec, ~10,000 firewall policies
Interface flexibility: 16 × 1 GbE RJ45, 8 × SFP, 4 × 10 GbE SFP+, plus management and HA/console ports — supports a variety of LAN/WAN configurations.
