Fortinet FortiSwitch AX9000G-LC100

Fortinet’s FortiSwitch AX family complements the FortiSwitch Security Fabric Ethernet switch range, addressing the demand for high-performance, reliable and scalable network infrastructure as bandwidth requirements and business needs continue to grow.

Modern Ethernet networks need to support a growing number of devices and bandwidth-intensive applications without compromising reliability — high availability and rapid failover are essential, since downtime directly affects productivity and revenue, and the network needs to scale flexibly as the business grows.

The FortiSwitch AX9000G-LC100 is a hot-swappable 32 x 100G/40G (QSFP28/QSFP+) line card for the FortiSwitch AX9000G modular chassis series — installed alongside a supervisor module (AX9000G-SUP) and other line cards, rather than deployed as a standalone switch.
