Fortinet FortiGate 1800F + 3-Year UTP Bundle (FG-1800F-BDL-950-36)

Procurement teams specifying a high-throughput data center edge or campus core firewall face a predictable problem: full threat inspection drops throughput to a fraction of raw capacity on platforms that rely on general-purpose CPUs. The FortiGate 1800F resolves this with purpose-built NP7 and CP9 ASICs that keep IPS at 22 Gbps and threat protection at 15 Gbps even under deep inspection. Sold here as FG-1800F-BDL-950-36, the appliance ships with a 3-year FortiCare Premium and FortiGuard UTP subscription activated from day one.

What This Bundle Includes

FG-1800F-BDL-950-36 combines the FortiGate 1800F hardware appliance with a 3-year UTP subscription registered directly to your organization’s Fortinet support account. The subscription covers FortiCare Premium support for the full term: 24×7 technical assistance, priority advanced hardware replacement, and firmware access. The FortiGuard UTP services component activates all Unified Threat Protection security feeds simultaneously on the same appliance, starting at registration.

What UTP Covers

The UTP subscription is Fortinet’s mid-tier service bundle. It includes everything in the ATP tier and adds web and DNS security layers that ATP leaves out. The table below shows where UTP sits relative to ATP and Enterprise so you can confirm the right tier for your compliance and threat model requirements.

Who This Suits

The 1800F targets organizations running 10GE to 100GE uplinks at the internet or WAN edge: enterprise campuses with dense traffic aggregation, financial institutions requiring sustained high-throughput SSL inspection, and service providers or managed security vendors deploying multi-tenant NGFW capacity. The 4x 100GE QSFP28 slots connect directly to spine-layer switching without an intermediate aggregation step.

Teams operating in regulated sectors benefit from the local 2x 960GB NVMe SSD storage for on-appliance log retention without relying on an external SIEM for first-pass forensics. The dual hot-swap power supplies and TPM satisfy infrastructure hardening requirements common in financial and government networks.

Term Options and Related Models

Three term options exist for the 1800F UTP bundle. The 1-year term (FG-1800F-BDL-950-12) fits annual procurement cycles. This 3-year listing (FG-1800F-BDL-950-36) balances cost efficiency with renewal flexibility. The 5-year bundle (FG-1800F-BDL-950-60) yields the lowest per-year cost for organizations with stable capital budgets. All three terms come with the same service scope; only the subscription length differs.

If port density or throughput requirements exceed the 1800F, the FortiGate 2600F is the next step up in the same generation with higher QSFP+ density. Standalone UTP subscription renewals for existing 1800F hardware follow the FC-10-F18HF-950-02-{term} SKU pattern. FortiCloud (FC-10-F18HF-131-02-36) adds cloud-based management and centralized reporting without a local FortiManager appliance.
