Product description

The FortiGate 51G-SFP-PoE (FG-51G-SFP-POE) is the most fully-featured compact model in the 50G series. It combines four PoE+ ports for powering IP phones, cameras, and APs directly from the firewall, a GE SFP slot for a fibre WAN or uplink, and 64 GB of onboard SSD for local log retention — all in a single desktop chassis running the G-series security engine at 2.25 Gbps IPS throughput.

Everything in One Device

PoE+ powers your endpoint devices without power injectors. The SFP slot handles fibre WAN or a high-reliability uplink to your core switch. The SSD retains 30–90 days of logs on-device for compliance and forensics. Together, these eliminate three categories of additional hardware that would otherwise sit alongside a standard firewall: a PoE switch, a media converter, and either a FortiAnalyzer or a cloud logging subscription for short-term retention. For a wiring-closet-constrained branch office, the space and cost savings are real.

Hardware Only — What That Means

This listing is the appliance alone. FortiCare and FortiGuard services are required — license options use the FC-10-F51GP- prefix, with 1-Year UTP (FC-10-F51GP-950-02-12) and Enterprise (FC-10-F51GP-809-02-12) available separately on DataCenter360.ca. The SFP transceiver is also not included.

Who Deploys the FG-51G-SFP-PoE

Professional offices, clinics, and branch locations that want maximum hardware consolidation are the core buyers. A typical deployment: firewall terminates the fibre ISP on the SFP port, powers three ceiling-mount APs and a VoIP phone on PoE+ LAN ports, and retains 60 days of security logs locally for the quarterly compliance audit. One device replaces a firewall, a PoE switch, and a media converter in the network rack.

Moving Up: FortiGate 70G

For sites that need higher session capacity or more ports, the FortiGate 70G (FG-70G) is the next tier in the G-series, with the same FortiOS feature set and Security Fabric integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the FG-51G-SFP-PoE differ from the FG-50G-SFP-PoE?

The FG-51G-SFP-PoE adds 64 GB of onboard SSD storage compared to the FG-50G-SFP-PoE. Port layout, PoE capabilities, SFP slot, and all performance specifications are identical. Choose the 51G variant when local log storage is required.

Is the SFP transceiver included?

No. A Fortinet-compatible SFP transceiver must be purchased separately based on your fibre type and run distance.

Does the FG-51G-SFP-PoE include a license?

No. This is hardware only. FortiCare and FortiGuard subscriptions (FC-10-F51GP- prefix) are required and available separately.

Can I power a ceiling-mounted wireless AP from the PoE+ LAN ports?

Yes. The three PoE+ LAN ports each deliver up to 30W, which is sufficient to power most enterprise indoor wireless access points including Fortinet’s own FortiAP lineup. When using a FortiAP, it integrates directly with FortiOS for centralized wireless policy management.

Is this unit available in Canada?

Yes. DataCenter360.ca stocks the FG-51G-SFP-PoE in Canada and ships free to all provinces in 0–1 business days.
