Security, Performance, and Manageability

The FortiSwitch 200 Series is part of the FortiSwitch Secure Access Family, designed to provide secure, scalable, and manageable Ethernet switching for businesses of different sizes.

FortiSwitch integrates with the Fortinet Security Fabric through FortiLink, allowing network administrators to manage compatible switches directly through the familiar FortiGate interface.

This centralized, single-pane-of-glass approach provides greater visibility and control over users and devices across the network, regardless of how they connect.

The FortiSwitch 200 Series is suitable for environments including:

• SD-Branch deployments
• Campus networks
• Desktop connectivity
• Secure network access
• Data center aggregation

This allows businesses to bring networking and security together within a unified infrastructure.
