FortiGate 71F desktop firewall for branch offices
The FortiGate 71F is a compact fanless desktop appliance built for enterprise branch offices and mid-sized businesses. It combines next-generation firewall capabilities with integrated SD-WAN in a single unit. The system runs FortiOS and includes a 128 GB SSD for onboard storage. It is designed for organisations that need security and wide-area networking without rack infrastructure.
Ten 1GbE RJ45 ports with dedicated WAN and DMZ
The appliance provides ten Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 ports: seven internal ports, two WAN ports and one DMZ port. This fixed port layout determines whether the unit matches the required network topology. Throughput reaches 10 Gbps for 1518-byte packets and 6 Gbps for 64-byte UDP packets. Firewall latency is 2.54 µs at 64 bytes and the device handles up to 9 Mpps with 1.5 million concurrent TCP sessions.
Fanless operation at 17.2 W average power draw
The unit consumes an average of 17.2 W and a maximum of 18.7 W while running silently without fans. It is powered by an external 12 V DC adapter that accepts 100–240 V AC at 50/60 Hz. Current draw is 1.0 A at 100 V AC and 0.6 A at 240 V AC. The desktop chassis measures 1.5 by 8.5 by 6.3 inches and weighs 2.23 lbs.

Questions about this item
How does the 10 Gbps firewall throughput hold up when traffic hits the 1 GbE ports?
The 10 Gbps figure applies to 1518-byte UDP packets; each RJ45 port is limited to 1 Gbps line rate, so aggregate throughput across the ten ports cannot exceed 10 Gbps in practice.
What does the 1 GbE RJ45 interface cap in a real deployment?
Each of the ten RJ45 ports negotiates at 1 Gbps full-duplex; the appliance cannot push more than 1 Gbps through any single copper link regardless of the ASIC rating.
What clearance does the 1.5 x 8.5 x 6.3 inch desktop chassis need for mounting?
The fanless unit is 1.5 inches high, 8.5 inches wide and 6.3 inches deep; allow at least 2 inches of side airflow space and a flat surface that supports 2.23 lbs.
