About the FortiSwitch T1048E

With a switching capacity of 2.16 Tbps and a forwarding rate of 1607.8 Mpps, the FortiSwitch T1048E (FSW-T1048E) delivers line-rate performance for modern data center and enterprise campus environments. This Fortinet network switch combines 48 × 10GbE SFP+ ports with 6 × 100GbE QSFP28 uplink ports in a compact 1U rack-mount form factor (440 × 470 × 44 mm), making it ideal for high-density switching deployments where throughput and port density are equally critical. The T-Series platform from Fortinet supports comprehensive Layer 2 capabilities including VLAN, MSTP, LACP, LLDP, VXLAN, and Jumbo Frames, alongside robust Layer 3 routing via OSPF, BGP, Static Routing, Inter-VLAN Routing, and ECMP. Power redundancy is built in with hot-swappable AC 100–240V PSUs, while hot-swappable fan modules with front-to-rear airflow ensure operational continuity in demanding thermal environments operating from 0°C to 45°C.

Network architects and IT procurement teams standardizing on Fortinet security fabrics will find the FSW-T1048E particularly valuable for its FortiLink integration with FortiGate, FortiManager, and FortiAnalyzer ecosystems, enabling unified policy enforcement and visibility across the entire fabric. The switch also supports industry-standard management through REST API, CLI, and SNMP, while 802.1X and MAC-based authentication with Dynamic VLAN assignment address zero-trust network access requirements. This combination of performance, manageability, and security integration makes the FSW-T1048E the preferred choice for organizations seeking deterministic switching performance without compromise.

Omnixon Global stocks the Fortinet FSW-T1048E and supports enterprise procurement across the UAE and wider MENA region. To request a quotation, technical datasheet, or arrange a pre-sales consultation, submit your RFQ through our B2B portal or contact our solutions team directly.
