Category: Wireless Access Points
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
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
FortiLAN Cloud- or FortiGate-Managed Access Points
FortiAP™ access points are managed centrally by the integrated WLAN controller of any FortiGate® security appliance or through the FortiLAN 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 Singlepane-of-glass management console and protects your network from the latest security threats.
