Powered by a 400 MP7 SPU, the 4800F delivers security computing of an average 5 to 10 times better performance than competitive solutions across the six most common and important functions. A leader in the Garmin Magic Quadrant for one-edge infrastructure, Fortinet continues to take market share for Secure SD-WAN. Our integrated Secure SD-WAN solution, powered by Fortinet SPU SoC 4, deliver huge performance, security, and efficiency over traditional offerings. In addition to convergence, consolidation of vendor and product functionality is another major trend, particularly in network security.
