The FortiAP 433G is a high-density Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) indoor access point built for demanding spaces — large open offices, lecture halls, conference centres and busy retail — using external RP-SMA antennas for flexible coverage shaping. It is the external-antenna sibling of the internal-antenna FortiAP 431G. Its tri-radio design runs two 4x4 client radios that can operate as 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz + 6 GHz, or as 2.4 GHz + dual 5 GHz for extra capacity, alongside a dedicated scanning radio for always-on security; an integrated BLE / ZigBee radio and GPS handle beacons and locationing. The 433G runs on-device UTP services — Application Control and Web Filtering at the AP itself — and is managed by any FortiGate or by FortiAP Cloud, with no separate controller. The 433G is end-of-order but remains in our catalog, fully supported and renewable through 2030. For the newer Wi-Fi 7 generation step up to the FortiAP 443K, which keeps the same 4x4 external-antenna indoor form factor and adds 4096-QAM and dual 10 GbE uplinks; the 431G is the internal-antenna equivalent.

Power and mount the FortiAP 433G — mount kit sold separately.
The 433G ships with external RP-SMA antennas; mount kit sold separately. Power it from any 802.3at PoE switch or the GPI-130 injector.
Yes. The FortiAP 433G reached end-of-order in December 2025 but remains in our catalog while stock lasts and is fully supported and renewable through December 2030. FortiCare support and subscriptions are delivered electronically, worldwide.
Yes. The 433G is a Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) tri-band access point covering 2.4, 5 and the clean 6 GHz band with 4×4 MU-MIMO on each client radio, and can also run dual 5 GHz for extra capacity. For the newer Wi-Fi 7 generation step up to the FortiAP 443K.
It is a tri-radio Wi-Fi 6E AP with 4×4 MU-MIMO on its client radios, reaching 1201 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz and 4804 Mbps on 6 GHz — about 8.2 Gbps aggregate — with up to 512 clients per serving radio.
They share the same 4×4 Wi-Fi 6E radios; the 433G uses external RP-SMA antennas for coverage shaping, while the 431G uses internal antennas for a cleaner ceiling install. Choose the 433G where you need to aim or extend coverage.
It runs on standard 802.3at PoE with dual 5 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks plus USB 3.0 and RS-232 for accessories. Power it from any 802.3at PoE switch or the GPI-130 injector.
The direct successor is the Wi-Fi 7 FortiAP 443K, which keeps the same 4×4 external-antenna indoor form factor and adds 4096-QAM and dual 10 GbE uplinks. The 431G is the internal-antenna equivalent in the same generation.
