The Fortinet FortiSwitch 248E is a secure, high-performance Layer 2/Layer 3 access switch designed to work seamlessly within the Fortinet Security Fabric. It is ideal for organizations that want tight integration between switching and security, especially when paired with a Fortinet FortiGate 100F Firewall.

Managed directly through the firewall using FortiOS, the FortiSwitch 248E simplifies network operations by providing centralized control, visibility, and policy enforcement across your entire infrastructure—without requiring separate switch management systems.
