OVERVIEW

What the FortiSwitch 148F is for

The FortiSwitch 148F is a 48-port Gigabit access switch with four 10GE SFP+ uplinks, built for high-density wiring closets and desk connectivity where Power over Ethernet is not required. It delivers 48 Gigabit RJ45 access ports, four 10GE SFP+ fiber uplinks and 176 Gbps of switching capacity in a quiet, 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. Need PoE for access points, phones or cameras? The 148F-POE powers 24 ports (370 W) and the 148F-FPOE powers all 48 ports (740 W).
