FortiGate HA deployments start with two identical units. The FG-80F-HA is the dedicated second node for a FortiGate 80F high-availability pair, hardware-identical to the standard FG-80F: same NP6Lite processor, same eight internal GE RJ45 ports (including two FortiLink ports), and two shared-media WAN ports accepting either RJ45 or SFP. Two FG-80F-HA units form a cluster without any difference in cabling or firmware; FortiOS handles role assignment automatically at boot.
| Internal GE RJ45 Ports | 6 x GE RJ45 + 2 x GE RJ45 FortiLink (8 total) |
| WAN Ports | 2 x GE RJ45/SFP Shared Media (one interface type active per port; SFP sold separately) |
| Firewall Throughput | 10 Gbps (1518 B) / 7 Gbps (64 B) |
| IPS Throughput | 1.4 Gbps |
| NGFW Throughput | 1 Gbps |
| Threat Protection | 900 Mbps |
| SSL Inspection Throughput | 715 Mbps |
| IPsec VPN Throughput | 6.5 Gbps |
| Concurrent Sessions (TCP) | 1,500,000 |
| New Sessions/sec (TCP) | 45,000 |
| Firewall Policies | 5,000 |
| Max FortiAPs (Total / Tunnel) | 96 / 48 |
| Max FortiSwitches | 24 |

| Form Factor | Desktop, fanless (0 dBA) |
| Power Consumption | 12.69 W avg / 15.51 W max |
In Active-Passive mode, the primary unit handles all traffic while the secondary runs synchronized but idle. Session tables replicate continuously over the HA heartbeat link, so a hardware failure triggers sub-second failover and established TCP sessions survive without dropping. In Active-Active mode, both units share the inspection load, effectively doubling the cluster throughput capacity. The same FortiOS policy set runs on both nodes; changes written on the primary replicate to the secondary automatically.
Each of the two WAN ports accepts either a copper RJ45 cable or an SFP transceiver, chosen at installation. Organizations with a fibre ISP handoff insert an SFP module; those on copper use standard Cat5e or Cat6. Only one interface type is active per port. SFP transceivers must be ordered separately, and both cluster nodes should match their WAN interface type to the connected ISP lines.
Fortinet covers the entire HA cluster under one subscription. A single FC-10-0080F- FortiGuard bundle or FortiCare Premium applied to the primary propagates to the secondary automatically. No per-node licensing cost, one renewal date, and one activation key for the pair. This keeps subscription management predictable for branch IT teams that oversee multiple sites.
The FG-80F-HA fits branch offices and distributed sites that need hardware redundancy without the cost and footprint of a chassis-based system. Retailers, financial branches, and healthcare clinics with a single firewall point of failure use HA clustering to meet uptime requirements. The fanless desktop design and optional rack-tray mounting make deployment practical in constrained network closets where noise and space are concerns.
The FG-81F-HA is the next HA unit in the 80F family. It matches the FG-80F chassis and performance specifications but adds a 128 GB SSD for local log retention and on-device quarantine, making it a better fit for sites with intermittent FortiAnalyzer connectivity or compliance logging requirements.
DataCenter360.ca lists the FG-80F-HA as a single-unit product so teams can order one or two depending on where they are in the deployment. Units ship factory-sealed from Canadian inventory with free delivery to any province in 0 to 1 business days. As an authorized Fortinet Select Partner, DataCenter360.ca provides partner-backed support from purchase through post-sale activation, not just fulfillment.
Yes. FortiGate HA requires two physical units. Purchase two FG-80F-HA units, connect them with a dedicated HA heartbeat link, and apply one FortiGuard or FortiCare subscription that covers the entire pair.
No. Fortinet HA licensing covers the full cluster under one subscription. Apply the FC-10-0080F- bundle or FortiCare license to the primary, and FortiOS propagates it to the secondary automatically at no additional license cost.
The FG-80F-HA is hardware-identical to the FG-80F. The “-HA” designation in the SKU indicates the unit is sold as a second node for clustering rather than as a standalone firewall. The hardware, firmware, and performance specifications are the same.
FortiGate HA failover with stateful session synchronization completes in under one second. Established TCP sessions remain active through the transition without perceptible interruption to end users or connected applications.
Yes. DataCenter360.ca ships the FG-80F-HA free to all Canadian provinces in 0 to 1 business days from Canadian inventory. This product ships within Canada only and is not available for international export.
