Fortinet 248D.
48-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch for High-Density Access
The FortiSwitch 248D is a 48-port Gigabit access switch built for larger wiring closets and campus
deployments that need dense PoE+ power alongside 10G-ready uplinks. The 248D-POE delivers 370W across 24
ports, while the 248D-FPOE extends full PoE+ to all 48 ports for maximum device density. Both are managed
centrally through FortiLink from a FortiGate.
The FortiSwitch 248D has 48 Gigabit RJ45 ports plus 4 GE SFP uplink ports.
The 248D-POE provides 370W of PoE+ across 24 of its 48 ports, while the 248D-FPOE
spreads the same 370W budget across all 48 ports for broader PoE coverage at lower per-port power.
Yes, the 248D is a FortiLink-managed switch and integrates directly with FortiGate
for centralized configuration and security.
The 248D has a switching capacity of 104 Gbps with a forwarding rate of 155 Mpps.
Both offer 48 Gigabit access ports, but the 248D uses GE SFP uplinks while the 148F
offers faster 10G/1G SFP+ uplinks for higher-bandwidth aggregation.
