Here, the synergistic capabilities of the FortiAP 441K and FortiSwitch T1024 converge, blending cutting-edge networking technologies with the safeguard of AI-powered protection.
Addressing the surging demand for ARM-powered edge applications, Fortinet, one of the global leaders in cybersecurity, has expanded the compatibility of its edgeConnector products to include ARM 32-bit, complementing last year’s successful integration of ARM 64-bit.
This strategic enhancement aims to enhance the deployment flexibility of compact hardware, allowing for increased compatibility with tiny ARM processor-driven edge devices.
Abel Jimenez, Fortinet’s Product Manager, underscores the significance of this innovation, emphasizing its pivotal role in broadening the spectrum of devices compatible with Fortinet’s edge solutions. This commitment, as articulated by Mr Jimenez, brings out Fortinet’s vision to deliver sophisticated and adaptable solutions tailored to industrial requirements.
The FortiAP 441K, a significant component in this initiative, leverages the cutting-edge Wi-Fi 7 Qualcomm® Networking Pro 1220 Platform. This integration enables the FortiAP 441K to deliver connection rates that are up to 2 times faster, leveraging features such as 4096 QAM data transfer, 320MHz channels, reduced latency, and enhanced load balancing and interference mitigation.
Furthermore, the FortiSwitch T1024, a 10 GE access switch, aligns seamlessly with the FortiAP 441K, extending support to accommodate the latest Wi-Fi 7 Access Points (APs).
Facilitating a cohesive and integrated ecosystem, Fortinet’s Secure Networking solution, anchored by the Fortinet Security Fabric, seamlessly converges networking devices with state-of-the-art security measures.
Notably, FortiGate Next-Generation Firewalls have evolved to function as wireless controllers through the incorporation of FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services. This integration fortifies network security, ensuring a comprehensive defense against evolving threats.
Adding another layer of innovation, FortiAIOps, an artificial intelligence platform designed for IT operations, enters the fray by delivering real-time analytics and automating processes across both WAN and LAN environments.
This augmentation further solidifies Fortinet’s commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that not only address current demands but also anticipate and adapt to future technological advancements.
