The FortiGate 4800F is Fortinet’s flagship hyperscale data-center next-generation firewall, powered by the NP7 network processor and CP9 content processor. It delivers 75 Gbps of threat protection, 87 Gbps IPS throughput, 3.1 Tbps firewall throughput, and 280 million concurrent sessions in a 4RU chassis — with eight 400GE QSFP-DD uplinks and twelve 200GE/100GE QSFP56 slots. Built for the largest hyperscale cores and service-provider backbones that need 400GE density, multi-terabit throughput, and up to 1.8 billion sessions with the Hyperscale Firewall license.

The 4800F is a 4RU chassis appliance with eight 400GE QSFP-DD ports, twelve 200GE/100GE QSFP56 slots and redundant hot-swappable power.
The FortiGate 4800F is a current-generation flagship model, fully supported with active FortiGuard and FortiCare subscriptions available for 1, 3, and 5-year terms.
The 4800F is the flagship: 3.1 Tbps firewall throughput and 8x 400GE QSFP-DD ports, versus the 4400F’s 1.15 Tbps and 12x 100GE QSFP28 ports. Both are NP7 + CP9 chassis firewalls; choose the 4800F when you need 400GE optics and multi-terabit throughput.
The optional Hyperscale Firewall license unlocks additional NP7 acceleration, raising concurrent sessions from 280 million to 1.8 billion and new sessions/second from 915,000 to 25 million. It is a perpetual license for the largest carrier and hyperscale deployments.
Performance is identical — both run on the same NP7 + CP9 platform. The FortiGate 4801F adds 2x 1.92 TB onboard SSD storage for local logging and reporting.
The 4800F provides eight 400GE QSFP-DD ports (also 200GE / 100GE / 40GE), twelve 200GE / 100GE QSFP56 / QSFP28 slots, and twelve 50GE / 25GE / 10GE SFP56 / SFP28 / SFP+ slots, plus dual 10GE RJ45 management ports.
