FS-3032E Fortinet FortiSwitch 3032E Switch, 32 Port 40GE QSFP+/100GE QSFP28 (New)
Description
The Fortinet FortiSwitch 3032E is a high-performance, rack-mountable managed switch featuring 32 QSFP28 ports for 100GbE/40GbE connectivity. Designed for data centers and enterprise core networks, it delivers ultra-low latency, robust security, and seamless integration with Fortinet’s Security Fabric.
The FortiSwitch‑3032E (FS‑3032E). It’s designed mainly for top‑of‑rack (ToR) server aggregation, firewall uplinks, or in SD‑Branch / aggregation deployments. It can also be managed under FortiGate (via FortiLink) as part of the Fortinet Security Fabric.

Use Cases & Deployment Scenarios
Some common roles for the FS‑3032E include:
-
Top-of-Rack (ToR) aggregation in a data center: connecting servers and uplinking to core switches/firewalls
-
Firewall aggregation: as the switch layer between firewalls and downstream switches
-
SD‑Branch core / aggregation: for branch sites needing high throughput
-
High bandwidth aggregation where many 100 G/40 G links are needed
Because it handles high-speed links (100G / 40G) at scale, it’s more suited for environments with heavy traffic and high throughput demands.
NB: This switch is purpose-built for Top-of-Rack server aggregation, firewall clustering, and SD-Branch core deployments, offering a secure, scalable, and low-latency solution for modern network infrastructures
