Fortinet FortiSwitch Rugged 424F-POE - Switch - L3 - Styrt - 12 x 2.5GBase-T (UPOE) + 12 x 1/2.5 Gigabit SFP+ + 4 x 10 Gigabit SFP+ + 2 x 40 Gigabit QSFP+ - rackmonterbar - UPOE (421 W)

FortiSwitch Rugged switches deliver all of the enterprise features, performance, and security of the trusted FortiSwitch secure, simple, scalable Ethernet solution. Rugged switches have added hardware reinforcement and software features that make them ideal for deployments in hostile environments, as well as operational technology (OT) industrial and control networks.

Resilient, sturdy, and capable of withstanding intense temperature fluctuations, FortiSwitch Rugged ensures the integrity and performance of mission-critical networks in even the most challenging of deployments.

Operational technology applications

IT/OT convergence has created opportunities for improved reliability and performance. The Fortinet LAN Edge solution enables OT network administrators to take advantage of these gains while introducing cybersecurity into previously air-gapped systems.

Durability, power, and speed with zero-touch manageability

The FortiSwitch Rugged series offers durability coupled with the Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) speeds necessary for today's mission-critical hardened applications. Zero-touch deployment and scalable NOC management options simplify the administration and support of Ethernet networks and their security, without complex licensing. As local area network (LAN) requirements continue to evolve, power has become an important consideration when evaluating Ethernet switches. FortiSwitch Rugged with advanced PoE options like PoE++ enables IT and OT admins to future-proof their Ethernet access layer. These PoE capabilities let IT managers deploy and power IoT devices such as cameras, sensors, and wireless access points in the network, with power and data delivered over the same network cable.
