The FortiSwitch 148F-FPOE is a 48-port Gigabit PoE+ access switch with four 10GE SFP+ uplinks, built for high-density wiring closets where every port may need to power a device. It delivers full 802.3af/at PoE across all 48 ports on a 740 W budget, four 10GE SFP+ fiber uplinks and 176 Gbps of switching capacity in a compact 1RU chassis. Managed over FortiLink from any FortiGate, it folds wired access into the Security Fabric — one console for switching, Wi-Fi and security, with no separate controller. It also runs standalone. Don't need PoE on every port? The 148F-POE powers 24 ports (370 W) and the data-only 148F has no PoE.

Every Fortinet purchase from DataCenter360.ca is backed by hands-on services across the full lifecycle — from rollout to round-the-clock protection.
All 148F models share the same 48-port / 176 Gbps platform with four 10GE SFP+ uplinks. They differ by Power over Ethernet: the 148F-FPOE powers all 48 ports at 740 W, the 148F-POE powers 24 ports at 370 W, and the data-only 148F has no PoE output.
The 148F-FPOE is the 48-port full-PoE+ member of the 100F-series Secure Access line. The 124F-FPOE covers 24 PoE+ ports and the 108F-FPOE covers 8 for smaller sites. Same FortiSwitchOS and FortiLink management across the range; step down to the 148F-POE or data-only 148F when you need less PoE.
