The FortiGate 71G (FG-71G) is where Fortinet’s fifth-generation SP5 security processor reaches the desktop. It keeps the familiar ten-port layout of the 70-series but roughly doubles inspection performance over the F-class equivalent, and adds a 64 GB SSD for on-box logging. For a branch that wants current-generation throughput without moving to a rackmount, this is the entry point.
This is the appliance by itself. FortiCare and FortiGuard subscriptions under the FC-10-GT71G- service line switch on threat protection and are ordered separately, so the hardware purchase and the security renewal stay independent.

The jump that matters is inspection with services on. At 2.5 Gbps IPS and 1.4 Gbps SSL inspection, the 71G handles encrypted-traffic scanning that would throttle an F-class box of the same port count, and its 100,000 new sessions per second suits busy branches with chatty SaaS and IoT. The 64 GB SSD covers local logging and reporting on the appliance.
By itself the FG-71G forwards and segments traffic, but the FortiGuard engines stay off until a subscription is active. If you would rather start protected on day one, the FG-71G bundle SKUs pair the unit with FortiCare Premium and a UTP or Enterprise term. The bare unit is the right call when you carry an existing license entitlement or are deploying a cold spare.
Canadian SMBs refreshing an aging 60-series or F-class edge, and anyone standing up a new branch who wants the SP5 generation’s inspection headroom in a quiet, fanless desktop box rather than a rack unit.
When a branch outgrows a desktop footprint, the FG-90G is the next G-series step, moving into a higher-throughput chassis while keeping the same FortiOS and management model.
As an authorized Fortinet Select Partner, DataCenter360.ca ships the FG-71G from Canadian stock, sealed and warranty-backed, usually within a business day. Refreshing from an older model and unsure which services to carry over? Send us the outgoing SKU and we will match the right FortiGuard term for the 71G.
The 71G runs Fortinet’s SP5 fifth-generation processor and delivers markedly higher inspection performance, for example 2.5 Gbps IPS and 1.4 Gbps SSL inspection versus the F-class numbers. Port layout is similar; the 71G carries a 64 GB SSD.
No. The FG-71G is hardware only. FortiCare and FortiGuard services are sold separately under the FC-10-GT71G- line, or bundled with the appliance.
It provides onboard storage for local logs and reports, useful for troubleshooting and for retention requirements without a separate log collector.
Yes. FortiOS supports Active-Passive and Active-Active HA on the 71G, so two units can be clustered for failover.
Yes. We stock it in Canada and ship free to all provinces in 0 to 1 business day, brand new and sealed.
