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 GE 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).

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 data-only 148F has no PoE output, the 148F-POE powers 24 ports (370 W), and the 148F-FPOE powers all 48 ports (740 W).
The 148F is the 48-port data-only member of the 100-series Secure Access line. The 124F covers 24 ports and the 108F covers 8 ports for smaller sites. Same FortiSwitchOS and FortiLink management across the range; step up to the 148F-POE or 148F-FPOE when you need PoE.
