When a datacenter edge needs to sustain 80 Gbps of throughput without compromising on deep inspection, the FortiGate 1100E is the platform teams reach for. This bundle pairs the 2U appliance with a full year of Enterprise Protection — every FortiGuard security layer, FortiConverter for a clean migration, a dedicated Managed FortiGate service, and FortiCare Premium support included from day one.
This SKU ships the FortiGate 1100E hardware with a 1-year Enterprise Protection subscription pre-attached. No separate license purchase is needed to get started. IPS, Advanced Malware Protection, URL/DNS/Video Filtering, Antispam, AI-based Inline Malware Prevention, DLP, Attack Surface Security, OT Security, FortiConverter, Managed FortiGate Service, and FortiCare Premium all activate immediately on registration.

Enterprise Protection (tier 809) is the broadest FortiGuard bundle for FortiGate. It covers everything in the ATP and UTP tiers, then extends further with DLP, AI-based Inline Malware Prevention, Attack Surface Security, OT Security, FortiConverter, the Managed FortiGate 24×7 NOC service, and one year of FortiGate Cloud log retention. The comparison below shows what each tier adds:

This appliance targets organizations that need to secure high-volume datacenter north-south traffic, large campus aggregation points, or demanding SD-WAN edges. At 80 Gbps firewall and 9.8 Gbps NGFW throughput — with NP6 and CP9 silicon offloading the heavy lifting — the 1100E handles TLS decryption, full IPS, and threat protection simultaneously without becoming a bottleneck at the core.
The Enterprise bundle delivers practical depth: teams dealing with regulated data get DLP and inline CASB, operational technology teams get purpose-built OT security signatures with over 2,400 virtual patches and protocol decoders, and IT teams migrating from a legacy firewall can use the bundled FortiConverter service to automate policy translation. The Managed FortiGate Service means a Fortinet NOC team handles day-to-day device setup and policy change management — a practical option for lean security teams.
The same Enterprise Protection bundle ships in 3-year (FG-1100E-BDL-809-36) and 5-year (FG-1100E-BDL-809-60) terms if a multi-year commitment fits the procurement cycle or reduces the per-year cost. Environments that require higher aggregate throughput or a larger port count can step up to the FortiGate 2500E series. For those needing local SSD logging on the same 1100E platform, the FG-1101E variant adds 960 GB of onboard storage.
DataCenter360.ca stocks the FG-1100E-BDL-809-12 in Canada and ships free in 0 to 1 business days. As an authorized Fortinet Select Partner, we provide genuine Fortinet hardware at competitive pricing — the listed price reflects partner-level discounts. Purchase orders and formal quotes are available for procurement teams, and we support Fortinet registration and license activation at no additional charge after the sale.
The FortiGate 1100E and 1101E share the same chassis, interface layout, and all performance specifications. The FG-1101E adds 960 GB of onboard SSD storage (2x 480 GB drives) for extended local log retention. If logs are retained in FortiAnalyzer or FortiGate Cloud, the two models are functionally equivalent at runtime.
Yes. Enterprise Protection (SKU tier 809) includes FortiCare Premium for the full subscription term. FortiCare Premium provides 24x7x365 technical support access, a 1-hour response SLA for critical issues, and next-business-day hardware replacement. The bundle also includes the Managed FortiGate Service, where Fortinet NOC engineers handle device setup and ongoing policy changes.
No. FortiGate hardware from DataCenter360.ca ships within Canada only, consistent with our authorized distribution territory. Electronic license renewals and subscriptions can be purchased separately and delivered worldwide, but the physical appliance ships to Canadian addresses.
The FortiGate 1100E uses the NP6 network processor for accelerated firewall, VPN, and anomaly-based IPS processing at line rate, and the CP9 content processor for SSL/TLS decryption (including TLS 1.3), pattern matching, and antivirus acceleration. This combination delivers 80 Gbps of firewall throughput and 12.5 Gbps of full IPS throughput without loading the general-purpose CPUs.
The FortiGate 1100E supports Active-Active, Active-Passive, and clustering HA configurations via the two dedicated GE RJ45 MGMT/HA ports on the front panel. The dual hot-swappable AC power supplies provide power redundancy within each unit. For traffic-path redundancy, two units in an HA pair is the standard approach — each unit ships with standard rack ear hardware already attached.
