OVERVIEW

What the FortiSwitch 224E-POE is for

The FortiSwitch 224E-POE is a 24-port Gigabit access switch that delivers Power over Ethernet on 12 ports with a 180 W budget, alongside four GE SFP fiber uplinks and 56 Gbps of switching capacity with Layer 2/3 FortiSwitchOS in a compact 1RU chassis. It powers access points, IP phones and IP cameras directly from the switch port, no power bricks at the desk. Managed over FortiLink from any FortiGate, it folds wired and PoE access into the Security Fabric - one console for switching, Wi-Fi and security, with no separate controller. It also runs standalone. Need more PoE? The 224D-FPOE powers all 24 ports (370 W); for no PoE at all, the data-only 224E covers desk connectivity.

Compare the FortiSwitch 224 line

All 224 models share the same 24-port / 56 Gbps Layer 2/3 platform with four GE SFP uplinks. They differ by Power over Ethernet: the 224E-POE powers 12 ports at 180 W, the 224D-FPOE powers all 24 ports at 370 W, and the data-only 224E has no PoE output.

COMPARE THE LINEUP

How the 224E-POE compares across the access line

The 224E-POE is the 24-port PoE+ member of the 200-series Secure Access line. Step up to the 48-port 248E-POE or full-PoE 248E-FPOE for larger closets, or move to the data-only 224E when PoE is not needed. Same FortiSwitchOS and FortiLink management across the range.
