The FortiAP 431G is a high-density Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) indoor access point with three 4x4:4 MU-MIMO radios operating concurrently across the 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands, delivering a total PHY rate of about 8.4 Gbps over a single 5 Gigabit Ethernet uplink. It uses internal high-performance antennas for a clean ceiling install and is the internal-antenna sibling of the external-antenna FortiAP 433G. Managed by any FortiGate or by FortiEdge Cloud with no separate controller, it suits offices, classrooms and meeting spaces that need the extra capacity of the 6 GHz band. The 431G reached end of order on 9 April 2026 and is now sold from remaining stock; Fortinet continues support, firmware and FortiCare renewals through 2031. For new high-density rollouts the direct replacement is the Wi-Fi 7 FortiAP 441K, which adds 4096-QAM and dual 10 GbE uplinks; the 433G is the external-antenna equivalent.
The 431G is legacy – here is how to renew what you own or move to its current-generation successor.

Power and mount the FortiAP 431G.
The FortiAP 431G reached end of order on 9 April 2026 and is classified as legacy. Hardware is sold only from remaining stock, but Fortinet continues firmware, security updates and FortiCare support through 9 April 2031, so existing deployments remain fully protected and renewable.
The direct successor is the Wi-Fi 7 FortiAP 441K, which adds 4096-QAM and dual 10 GbE uplinks while keeping internal antennas. The 433G is the external-antenna equivalent in the same 4×4 Wi-Fi 6E family.
It is a tri-radio Wi-Fi 6E (802.11ax) AP with 4×4 MU-MIMO on all three bands, reaching 1201 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, 2402 Mbps on 5 GHz and 4804 Mbps on 6 GHz – about 8.4 Gbps aggregate – over a single 5 GbE uplink, with up to 512 clients per serving radio.
They share the same 4×4 Wi-Fi 6E radios; the 431G uses internal high-performance antennas for a clean ceiling install, while the 433G has external antennas for coverage shaping. Choose the 431G for standard indoor ceilings.
Yes. FortiCare Premium and Elite support, the Premium-to-Elite upgrade and FortiSASE Cloud subscriptions are in stock as one-year renewals and are delivered electronically, worldwide. We are an authorized Fortinet Select Partner.
