These features enable organizations to efficiently support and secure the growing volume of data-rich traffic and cloud-based applications within campus environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Modern hybrid networks require power at the edge<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Organizations have shifted from a centralized network model to a decentralized one where processing and decision-making happen closer to the edge where data is generated. Because of this, enterprises need infrastructure that can handle increasing amounts of data and support bandwidth-heavy applications and IoT devices outside the central hub. This is particularly critical for the campus, which often hosts multiple on-site departments that rely on seamless connectivity and cloud-based applications for business-critical operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The performance and AI-powered features modern campuses need<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The FortiGate 200G series was purpose-built to deliver high-performing networking and security capabilities required within the modern campus. Leveraging the proprietary Fortinet ASIC, SP5, it delivers incredible throughput, enhances operational efficiency, and empowers organizations to increase their security posture amid the evolving threat landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Key features include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cutting-edge NGFW security performance,<\/strong>\u00a0including7x greater firewall throughput, 16x greater IPsec VPN throughput, and 2x greater threat protection than the industry average.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Industry-leading, AI-powered security<\/strong>\u00a0through FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services provides comprehensive protection against the evolving threat landscape with services such as inline advanced malware prevention, DNS filtering, data loss prevention, and attack surface management.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>5GE ports support lightning-fast connectivity\u00a0<\/strong>and boost access point performance, optimizing bandwidth utilization, enhancing data throughput, and ensuring high network availability.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The power of FortiGate 200G series with the SP5, Fortinet\u2019s fifth-generation security processing unit, and FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services is showcased in the below Security Compute Rating table, which compares the top firewalls on the market against the target performance numbers of the FortiGate 200G series:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Specification<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>FortiGate 200G series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Security Compute Rating<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Industry Average<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Palo Alto Networks<\/strong><br><strong>PA-1410 series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Cisco<\/strong><br><strong>Meraki MX series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Check Point Quantum 3800 series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Juniper<\/strong><br><strong>SRX345 series<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Firewall Throughput<\/td><td>39 Gbps<\/td><td>7x<\/td><td>5.9 Gbps<\/td><td>8.5 Gbps<\/td><td>6.0 Gbps<\/td><td>4.0 Gbps<\/td><td>5.0 Gbps<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>IPsec VPN<\/td><td>35 Gbps<\/td><td>16x<\/td><td>2.3 Gbps<\/td><td>4.1 Gbps<\/td><td>1.2 Gbps<\/td><td>2.8 Gbps<\/td><td>1.0 Gbps<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Threat Protection<\/td><td>6.4 Gbps<\/td><td>2x<\/td><td>2.9 Gbps<\/td><td>4.2 Gbps<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><td>1.5 Gbps<\/td><td>&#8211;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Concurrent Sessions<\/td><td>11M<\/td><td>8x<\/td><td>1.43M<\/td><td>945K<\/td><td>4K<\/td><td>4M<\/td><td>375K<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Connections\/Second<\/td><td>390K<\/td><td>6x<\/td><td>68.7K<\/td><td>100K<\/td><td>100K<\/td><td>60K<\/td><td>15K<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Power Consumption<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>FortiGate 200G series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Energy Efficiency<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Industry Average<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Palo Alto Networks<\/strong><br><strong>PA-1410 series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Cisco<\/strong><br><strong>Meraki MX series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Check Point Quantum 3800 series<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Juniper<\/strong><br><strong>SRX345 series<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Watts\/Gbps Firewall Throughput<\/td><td>4.5 W<\/td><td>4x<\/td><td>18.0 W<\/td><td>21.2 W<\/td><td>16.7 W<\/td><td>10.0 W<\/td><td>24.4 W<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Watts\/Gbps IPsec VPN Throughput<\/td><td>5.0 W<\/td><td>13x<\/td><td>67.0 W<\/td><td>43.9 W<\/td><td>83.3 W<\/td><td>14.6 W<\/td><td>125.8 W<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>BTU\/h per Gbps of Firewall Throughput<\/td><td>15.4 BTU<\/td><td>4x<\/td><td>61 BTU<\/td><td>72.1 BTU<\/td><td>56.8 BTU<\/td><td>30.8 BTU<\/td><td>84.4 BTU<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Threat Protection performance is measured with Firewall, IPS, Application Control and Malware Protection, and Logging enabled.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The numbers for competitive solutions are based on publicly available sources.
