Key Features
Everything you need in one device
🚀
4 × Gigabit SFP Uplinks
Fibre or copper SFP uplinks for connecting to core switches, distribution layers, or directly to FortiGate next-generation firewalls.
⚡
Sub-1µs Network Latency
Ultra-low latency switching ensures real-time applications — VoIP, video conferencing, and trading systems — perform without delay.
🔇
Fully Fanless Design
Zero moving parts means zero fan noise and maximum reliability. Ideal for open-plan offices, classrooms, retail floors, and any noise-sensitive environment.
🛡️
Fortinet Security Fabric
Native FortiLink integration with FortiGate allows centralised switch management, automated security policy enforcement, and real-time network threat visibility from a single console.
🌐
Advanced Layer 2/3 Features
Full VLAN (4K), STP/RSTP/MSTP, LACP link aggregation, IGMP snooping, QoS, and guest VLAN support for intelligent, segmented network traffic management.
🏗️
Stackable Architecture
Stack up to 300 switches per FortiGate depending on model, enabling seamless scaling from a single wiring closet to an entire campus network.
About the FortiSwitch FS-224E
The Fortinet FortiSwitch FS-224E is a fully managed, fanless Layer 2/3 Gigabit Ethernet switch built for small and medium-sized businesses and distributed enterprise branch offices. It delivers 24 × 1GbE RJ-45 ports alongside four Gigabit SFP uplinks, providing both broad wired device coverage and the high-speed fibre connectivity needed to integrate with FortiGate security infrastructure.
Performance is a key differentiator for the FS-224E: a 56 Gbps non-blocking switching fabric and 83 Mpps forwarding rate ensure all ports can run at wire speed simultaneously, while sub-1µs latency makes it ideal for latency-sensitive applications including VoIP, real-time collaboration, and unified communications platforms.
The FS-224E integrates natively with FortiGate firewalls via FortiLink, placing complete switch management — port configuration, VLAN assignment, security policies, and device visibility — directly within the FortiGate interface. This single-pane-of-glass approach eliminates the need for a separate switch management platform, reducing operational complexity and total cost of ownership. Fortinet's Security Fabric ensures the same authentication policies apply whether users connect to the wired or wireless network.
Perhaps the most operationally valuable feature is the fully fanless design. By eliminating all moving parts, the FS-224E operates in complete silence — an essential characteristic for offices, reception areas, classrooms, retail environments, and any space where fan noise is unacceptable. The passive cooling design also removes the most common point of hardware failure, delivering a more reliable and lower-maintenance deployment.
