The FortiSwitch 548D-FPOE is a 48-port Gigabit access switch with full Power over Ethernet on every port and high-speed fiber uplinks, built for high-density wiring closets and small aggregation points. It delivers 48 PoE+ (802.3af/at) ports on a 750 W budget (1440 W with a second power supply), four 10GE SFP+ and two 40GE QSFP+ uplinks, and 336 Gbps of switching capacity in a 1RU chassis with hot-swappable redundant AC power. 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 data-only? The 548D drops PoE; for a smaller closet, the 524D-FPOE offers 24 PoE+ ports.

The 548D-FPOE and 548D share the same 48-port / 336 Gbps platform with 10GE SFP+ and 40GE QSFP+ uplinks — they differ by Power over Ethernet: the 548D-FPOE powers 48 ports at up to 1440 W, the data-only 548D has no PoE. For smaller closets, the 24-port 524D-FPOE covers the same role at lower capacity.
The 548D-FPOE is the 48-port full-PoE member of the 500-series Campus line. The 524D-FPOE offers 24 PoE+ ports for smaller closets, and the current-generation 648F-FPOE is the 48-port successor with 25GE uplinks. Same FortiSwitchOS and FortiLink management across the range.
