FORTINET FortiSwitch 124F-FPOE – FS-124F-FPOE, L2+ Managed POE Switch with 24GE + 4SFP+, 24port POE. Rack Mountable

Description

The Fortinet FS‑124F‑FPOE is a 1U rack‑mountable L2+ managed Ethernet switch offering 24 GE RJ‑45 ports with PoE+ (up to 370 W) and 4 × 10 Gbps SFP+ uplinks. It delivers 128 Gbps switching capacity, supports about 190 Mpps forwarding rate, and integrates tightly with FortiGate via FortiLink for unified network and security management.

The FortiSwitch Secure Access family delivers outstanding security, performance, and manageability. Secure, simple, and scalable. Secure, simple, and scalable, FortiSwitch is the right choice for threat-conscious businesses of all sizes. Tightly integrated into the Fortinet Security Fabric via FortiLink, FortiSwitch can be managed directly from the familiar FortiGate interface. This single pane of glass management provides complete visibility and control of users and devices on the network regardless of how they connect. This makes the FortiSwitch ideal for SD-Branch deployments with applications that range from desktop to data center aggregation, enabling businesses to converge their security and network access.

FS‑124F‑FPOE Key Features & Capabilities

Port Configuration & Uplinks
- 24 × 1 GbE RJ‑45 ports, all supporting PoE / PoE+ (IEEE 802.3af / at)
- 4 × 10 GbE SFP+ ports for uplink or stacking purposes
- 1 × console (RJ‑45) port for out‑of‑band management
High PoE Capacity
- All 24 RJ‑45 ports are PoE/PoE+ capable (802.3af/at) with a 370 W total PoE budget. This allows powering many devices (e.g. wireless APs, IP phones, security cameras) without needing separate power supplies
Switching Performance
- Switching (backplane) capacity: 128 Gbps (duplex)
- Forwarding / packet rate: ~ 190 million packets per second (Mpps)
- Latency: < 1 µs (very low)
Integration & Simplified Management

Supports FortiLink: tight integration with FortiGate firewalls. This means you can manage the switch (ports, security policies etc.) via the FortiGate, reducing complexity and providing unified visibility. Also supports standalone operation when not managed via FortiGate. Supports standard management protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, SNMP v1/2c/3, Telnet, etc.
Addressing, VLAN, and Aggregation
- 4 × 10 GbE SFP+ uplink ports offer high bandwidth up to the core or for stacking, giving flexibility in connecting to faster links. addc.com.vn+1
- Supports up to ~4,000 VLANs, large MAC address table (~32,000) giving plenty of headroom for growing or segmented networks
- Link aggregation: supports LACP, up to 8‑port LAGs
- Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP), RSTP, STP, root guard, BPDU guard, etc.
Buffered Memory & Hardware Specs
- Packet buffer: 2 MB
- DRAM: 512 MB
- Flash / storage: 64 MB (for firmware, configuration)
Rack‑mountable Form Factor & Physical Efficiency
- 1U rack height means it takes up less space and is suitable for wiring closets or network racks.
- Built‑in AC PSU; simple power requirements (100‑240V AC) which simplifies deployment.
- Airflow: side‑to‑back design
- Operating temperature: up to ~45 °C
- Humidity: 10 – 90% non‑condensing
Advanced Features & Security
- QoS (Quality of Service), per‑port priority, traffic shaping
- ACLs, access control, 802.1x authentication, IEEE 802.1p, DAI (Dynamic ARP Inspection)
- IGMP snooping, multicast support
- Energy Efficient Ethernet, auto‑negotiation, auto‑uplink (MDI/MDI‑X)
- VLAN Tagging, port mirroring, DHCP snooping, DHCP relay, storm control, etc
Good for Converged & Branch‑Office Environments
- Because it supports data, voice, wireless traffic (PoE for APs + phones), you can converge services over one switch. Reduces cabling, simplifies deployment.
- Useful in SD‑Branch type setups where you want unified security, access, switching.
- Deployments Needing Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Strengths & Use Cases

High‑density PoE: With 24 PoE+ ports and a 370 W budget, it’s well suited for deploying IP cameras, VoIP phones, wireless access points, etc.
10G uplinks: The 4 SFP+ ports give high bandwidth uplinks or stacking links to core/distribution.
Tight integration with FortiGate: Because it’s part of the FortiSwitch family, you can use FortiLink to manage switch ports, policies, and devices centrally from a FortiGate firewall.
Good performance headroom: 128 Gbps switching fabric is more than sufficient for many enterprise edge deployments.
Enterprise features: Supports advanced switching features found in higher-tier switches (VLANs, LAG, ACLs, etc.).
