The FortiSwitch 424E is a 24-port Gigabit access switch with four 10GE SFP+ uplinks, built for wiring closets and branch offices where Power over Ethernet is not required. It offers 24 GbE RJ45 access ports plus four 10GE SFP+ fiber uplinks and 128 Gbps of switching capacity, in a 1RU rack-mount chassis with optional redundant AC power. With no PoE output, it is the cost-efficient choice for desktops, laptops and self-powered devices. 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 to power APs, phones or cameras? Step up to the PoE+ 424E-POE (250 W) or the 424E-FPOE (421 W).

Download the full datasheetAll 424E models share the same 24-port / 128 Gbps platform with four 10GE SFP+ uplinks. They differ by Power over Ethernet: the data-only 424E has no PoE output, the 424E-POE powers 24 ports at a 250 W budget, and the 424E-FPOE raises the PoE+ budget to 421 W.
The 424E is the 24-port, data-only member of the 400-series Campus access line. The 424E-Fiber swaps the copper access ports for 24x GE SFP fiber, and the 448E steps up to 48 ports and 176 Gbps. Same FortiSwitchOS and FortiLink management across the range.
