FortiAPTM Series

Highlights
· Unified management console simplifies operations, ensuring consistency in effective policy enforcement and compliance
· Built-in foundation for zerotrust network access (ZTNA) and secure access service edge (SASE), allowing you the flexibility to easily deploy microbranches with the security you need at the edge of your network
· Wireless LAN security done right, from the leader in network security. Integrated Firewall, IPS, Application Control, and Web Filter protect the wireless LAN from the latest security threats
· Protects the network from advanced wireless threats and satisfies industry compliance such as PCI DSS

FortiGate, FortiEdge Cloud, or SASE-managed access points
FortiAPTM access points are managed centrally by the integrated WLAN controller of any FortiGate® security appliance or through the FortiEdge Cloud provisioning and management portal. With the integration of the wireless controller functionality into the market-leading FortiGate appliance, these APs are perfect for campus and branch deployments. Fortinet's Security Fabric enables you to easily manage wired and wireless security from a Single-pane-of-glass management console and protects your network from the latest security threats.

Data Sheet

Use Cases
FortiAPs allow for a versatile collection of installation topologies with options to fit any enterprise.
Campus A single building with multiple floors, or a corporate or education campus with a group of large buildings. · High-capacity designs including Dual 5GHz and tri-band with Wi-Fi 6E allow a maximal
number of client devices to attach to the network at the same time without over-air congestion · Complete NOC functionality with network visibility and AIOps simplify a complex network deployment into a solution manageable by IT teams of any size
Branch Office / SD-Branch A highly distributed number of small sites, often with no on-site IT. · Built in NAC functions* allow secure onboarding of devices at remote locations where IT
doesn't have reliable visibility · Management orchestration with zero-touch deployment allows for quick and easy rollouts
without the need for skilled installers at each site
Micro Branch Ultra small sites that still fall under IT's responsibility. · Can act as a SASE endpoint as a foundation for zero-trust network access (ZTNA) · Simple management and provisioning through FortiSASE interface
Remote Workers A remote AP installed at a worker's home or at micro-branch office space. · Split tunneling allows local traffic to remain local while sending other traffic to the data center
for inspection when needed · Desktop mounting options for wall-plate models allow the use of Ethernet as well as Wi-Fi
connectivity while leveraging the same secure tunnel
SMB Single site or small collection of sites with limited IT resources. · Built-in NAC functions* bring security to the wireless network with no need to install and
manage additional products · Network and security convergence decreases management overhead while keeping the
network secure
*FortiGate-managed installations only.

FortiAP 431F and 433F These enterprise class 802.11ax indoor APs provide three radios and four spacial streams. These top-of-the-line access points provide OFDMA, a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, plus an additional 1 Gbps Ethernet port for PoE diversity. The APs can provide 24/7 scanning across both bands while still providing access on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The integrated BLE radio can be used for beacons and locationing applications.

FortiAP 432FR This enterprise class 802.11ax ruggedized indoor/outdoor/industrial AP provides three radios and four spacial streams. As a top-of-the-line Wi-Fi 6 access point it provides OFDMA, a 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet port, plus an additional 1 Gbps Ethernet port with PoE out. The AP can provide 24/7 scanning across both bands while still providing access on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. The integrated BLE radio can be used for beacons and locationing applications. FAP-432FR is ideal for hazardous environments such as oil rigs, industrial manufacturing, and transportation sites.
802.11ax | Tri-Radio 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz + scanning | 6 External Antennas
