Most datacenter firewalls run at a fraction of their rated capacity most of the time. The FortiGate 1100E is sized for the environments where that is not true — where 80 Gbps stateful firewall throughput, 8 million concurrent sessions, and 12.5 Gbps of IPS inspection all get exercised under production load. The FG-1100E-BDL-809-60 bundles that hardware with a 5-year Enterprise Protection subscription, so the appliance arrives with Fortinet’s broadest security coverage already attached and no renewal required until year six.
This SKU ships the FortiGate 1100E appliance alongside a 5-year Enterprise Protection subscription (Fortinet tier 809), which combines FortiCare Premium 24×7 support with the complete FortiGuard Enterprise security service suite. Both components activate against the same hardware serial number.

The 1100E targets datacenter perimeter and distribution-layer roles where IPS inspection throughput in the double-digit Gbps range is a real requirement, not a spec-sheet aspiration. Typical deployments include:
Choosing the 5-year term locks in today’s list pricing for the full period. Renewal pricing tends to increase at each cycle, so a multi-year commitment often lowers the total cost compared to three consecutive 1-year purchases.
The FG-1100E Enterprise bundle is available in 1-year and 3-year terms for organizations with shorter refresh cycles or procurement constraints. If your traffic volume requires higher aggregate throughput, the FortiGate 1800F steps up to 200 Gbps of firewall capacity using next-generation NP7 ASICs.
