Fortinet FortiGate 70G + 1-Year UTP Bundle (FG-70G-BDL-950-12)

When a branch office starts handling VoIP calls, cloud applications, and remote-access sessions at once, a first-generation firewall typically becomes the bottleneck. The FortiGate 70G changes that equation. Powered by Fortinet’s FortiSP5 ASIC, it delivers 10 Gbps firewall throughput and 2.5 Gbps IPS inspection from a fanless desktop appliance, then pairs those numbers with a 1-Year UTP subscription to cover the service inspection your branch traffic actually requires. That is the FG-70G-BDL-950-12.

What the FG-70G-BDL-950-12 Includes

The bundle combines the FortiGate 70G hardware with a one-year Unified Threat Protection license. Hardware: ten GE RJ45 ports (two WAN, one DMZ, seven internal), two FortiLink ports for managed FortiSwitch integration, a USB port, console port, fanless operation, and desktop form factor. The UTP subscription activates IPS, anti-malware with cloud sandboxing, application control, URL and DNS filtering with a 300-million URL database, anti-spam, and AI-based inline malware prevention directly on the appliance. No cloud relay is required for enforcement.

What UTP Covers

Unified Threat Protection sits one tier above ATP and two tiers below the Enterprise bundle. It adds URL and DNS filtering, anti-spam, and AI-based inline malware prevention to the IPS, anti-malware, and application control that ATP provides. For most branch deployments, those additions handle the traffic risks that ATP misses: phishing URLs in email, malware hosted on legitimate services, and DNS tunneling used for command-and-control. The bundle comparison below shows what each tier includes.

Who the FG-70G-BDL-950-12 Suits

The 70G with UTP works well for branches that have outgrown the 40F or 60F series without requiring the full Enterprise service stack. Retail chains adding PCI-DSS-oriented network monitoring, professional offices with heavy SaaS traffic, and SMBs moving away from ISP-provided gateways are typical buyers. The 1.4-million concurrent session capacity and 100,000 new sessions per second leave headroom for growth. Organizations running Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and video conferencing simultaneously will not encounter the throughput ceilings that smaller models hit under full inspection.

Other Terms and Models

The FG-70G-BDL-950-12 is the entry point of the 70G UTP stack at DataCenter360.ca. The 3-year (FG-70G-BDL-950-36) and 5-year (FG-70G-BDL-950-60) terms carry lower per-year costs and reduce renewal overhead for stable branch sites. If compliance requires Data Loss Prevention or OT security inspection, the Enterprise bundle (FG-70G-BDL-809-12) adds those services at the same 1-year term. The FG-71G-BDL-950-12 includes a 64GB SSD for extended local log storage, useful for sites where FortiCloud log retention is restricted.
