A fully equipped data-center security platform arrives in a single purchase with the FG-2601F-BDL-809-36. The FortiGate 2601F brings hyperscale NGFW performance to high-density data-center edges, and its pair of 960 GB NVMe SSDs make it one of the few appliances in its class with built-in local log storage. Bundle the three-year Enterprise Protection subscription up front and you get full-stack FortiGuard coverage plus FortiCare Premium support from day one, without a separate procurement cycle.
The FG-2601F-BDL-809-36 ships the FortiGate 2601F appliance together with a 3-year FortiGuard Enterprise Protection subscription and FortiCare Premium support in one SKU. Hardware and licenses activate together, so there is no gap period and no separate renewal on year one.

Enterprise Protection (tier 809) is Fortinet’s most comprehensive FortiGuard subscription for FortiGate appliances. Alongside FortiCare Premium 24×7 support and next-business-day RMA, it activates the following services on the 2601F:
The FG-2601F belongs in data-center edge deployments and large campus cores where traffic volumes push into the hundreds of gigabits per second. The twin 960 GB NVMe SSDs are well suited to environments that need local log retention without a separate FortiAnalyzer appliance, which is a meaningful cost and rack-space saving at scale. Organizations running SD-WAN aggregation, hyperscale segmentation, or carrier-grade NAT for 4G/5G networks find the Fortinet SPU-accelerated architecture directly matched to those workloads. The Enterprise bundle is the right fit for regulated verticals such as healthcare, finance, and government, where full-stack coverage and FortiCare Premium response times are compliance requirements, not optional add-ons.
The same Enterprise Protection subscription is available as a 1-year bundle (FG-2601F-BDL-809-12) and a 5-year bundle (FG-2601F-BDL-809-60). The FG-2600F covers the same throughput class without the onboard SSDs; the FG-2601F-DC and FG-2600F-DC variants add dual -48V DC power inputs for telecom and carrier racks. For requirements that exceed the 2601F’s capacity, the FortiGate 3001F provides higher port density and expanded NP7 processing headroom with the same Enterprise Protection subscription tier.
DataCenter360.ca stocks the FG-2601F-BDL-809-36 as an authorized Fortinet Select Partner in Canada. Units are new, sealed, and ship free within 0–1 business days from our Canadian warehouse. The bundle includes the appliance, Fortinet serial number registration, and the 3-year Enterprise Protection entitlement: everything required to register in FortiCare Portal and begin FortiGuard updates on arrival. For volume pricing, multi-unit deployments, or procurement under a government or educational framework, use the Request a Quote button and our team will respond the same business day.
The FortiGate 2601F includes 2× 960 GB NVMe SSDs for onboard log and event storage. The FG-2600F has no internal storage. All other hardware specifications — ports, throughput, power draw, and chassis dimensions — are identical. Choose the 2601F when local logging is a requirement; choose the 2600F when storage is handled externally by a FortiAnalyzer appliance or cloud service.
Enterprise Protection (tier 809) enables IPS, Advanced Malware Protection, AI-Based Inline Malware Prevention, URL/DNS/Video Filtering, Data Loss Prevention, Anti-Spam, Application Control, and FortiCare Premium 24×7 support. It is the broadest FortiGuard subscription available for the FortiGate platform and covers network, web, data, and zero-day threat categories in a single subscription.
Yes, the physical FortiGate 2601F appliance ships within Canada only. DataCenter360.ca is not authorized to export Fortinet hardware outside Canada. The 3-year Enterprise Protection licenses are electronic entitlements registered through Fortinet’s FortiCare Portal and follow Fortinet’s standard license terms, but the appliance itself must ship to a Canadian address.
The hardware and the 3-year Enterprise Protection term are fixed at purchase. When the bundle term ends, renewal uses the corresponding FC-10-F26F1 subscription SKU. A different tier — for example UTP instead of Enterprise — requires purchasing the appropriate license SKU. A different term length (1-year or 5-year) is available as FG-2601F-BDL-809-12 and FG-2601F-BDL-809-60 respectively.
The FortiGate 2601F targets high-throughput environments: data-center perimeter and east-west segmentation, large enterprise campus core, SD-WAN hub aggregation, and carrier or service-provider edge security. Its four 100 GE QSFP28 slots and sixteen 25 GE SFP28 slots suit spine-layer or aggregation-layer wiring, while the 2× NVMe SSDs support local threat logging without an external log management appliance.
