The FortiWiFi 30G is a FortiGate 30G with a wireless radio built in. The firewall specifications are identical, 500 Mbps of threat protection, 3.5 Gbps of IPsec VPN and 600,000 concurrent sessions, so everything that applies to the FortiGate 30G applies here unchanged.
The smallest integrated-wireless FortiGate, and the one where the consolidation argument is strongest: at a micro site there is often nowhere sensible to mount a separate access point anyway. Its ceiling is real though, eight FortiSwitches and sixteen FortiAPs, so if the site might grow past a single room, start at the 50G or 70G instead. No VDOMs on this model.
How to work out whether it fits
The arithmetic a datasheet leaves out. If any of it does not match your situation, that is worth a call rather than a guess.
Size the firewall exactly as you would a FortiGate 30G, 500 Mbps of threat protection against your circuit, then check the wireless separately. One integrated radio covers roughly a single room or small open-plan area; concrete, plasterboard and shelving all cut that hard. If the floor plan has more than one enclosed space that needs coverage, the honest answer is a FortiGate plus a separate access point, because you cannot move an antenna bolted to your firewall.
What to order alongside the FortiWiFi 30G
The published threat protection figure for this model is measured with IPS, application control and malware protection all running. Those arrive as a FortiGuard subscription, so the bundle you choose decides whether the hardware can reach the number you sized it on. Every bundle already includes FortiCare Premium 24x7 support.
| Bundle | What it adds | 1 yearlist price | 3 yearslist price | 5 yearslist price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Enterprise ProtectionENT | The broadest bundle. Everything in UTP, plus the services that cover data, SaaS posture and attack-surface visibility, plus inline zero-day malware prevention. | on quote | on quote | on quote |
| Unified Threat ProtectionUTP | The traditional mid-tier: perimeter defence covering network, file, web and email threats. Everything most sites actually switch on. | on quote | on quote | on quote |
| Advanced Threat ProtectionATP | The narrow bundle: IPS and the full malware stack including cloud sandboxing, without the web and email filtering layers. | on quote | on quote | on quote |
These are Fortinet list prices. You will not pay them.
Every quote we write is discounted from list, and how far below depends on quantity, term and whether we register the deal with Fortinet. Longer terms also price better per year, which is why three and five year bundles are usually the better buy on a device you intend to keep through a refresh cycle. Part numbers follow Fortinet’s standard bundled convention; not every model carries every combination, so we confirm the exact orderable SKU before anything is placed.
FortiWiFi 30G is the entry point in this family
Ranked on threat protection throughput, the figure that separates these models. All values are Fortinet’s own and cited on each product page.
Nothing below this
This is the smallest model in the family. If it is still more than you need, the honest answer is usually a different product line rather than a smaller box.
FortiWiFi 30G
500 Mbps
6 models in this family span 500 Mbps to 1.3 Gbps.
FortiWiFi 40F
600 Mbps
20% more headroom. Worth costing if you expect growth inside the refresh cycle, replacing early is dearer than buying up once.
Highlights
- Identical firewall specification to the FortiGate 30G
- Integrated access point, no separate AP or controller
- Manages up to 16 additional FortiAPs as the site grows
- Region-locked SKU; we confirm the correct part number
Typical deployments
- Single-room retail units and kiosks
- Two-to-ten person offices with one wireless cell
- Sites where mounting a separate AP is impractical
The numbers, with their conditions
Every figure below is Fortinet's own, with the test conditions it was measured under.
Performance
Fortinet's published figures. Firewall throughput is measured on UDP with no inspection enabled, size your deployment on threat protection throughput instead, which is measured with firewall, IPS, application control and malware protection all running against an enterprise traffic mix.
| Firewall throughput (1518 / 512 / 64 byte UDP) | 4 / 4 / 3.9 Gbps |
|---|---|
| IPsec VPN throughput (512 byte)IPsec VPN performance test uses AES256-SHA256. | 3.5 Gbps |
| IPS throughput (enterprise mix)IPS, application control, NGFW and threat protection are measured with logging enabled. | 800 Mbps |
| NGFW throughput (enterprise mix)NGFW performance is measured with firewall, IPS and application control enabled, enterprise mix traffic. | 570 Mbps |
| Threat protection throughput (enterprise mix)Threat protection performance is measured with firewall, IPS, application control and malware protection enabled, enterprise mix traffic. | 500 Mbps |
| SSL inspection throughput (IPS, avg. HTTPS)SSL inspection performance values use an average of HTTPS sessions of different cipher suites. | 400 Mbps |
| Application control throughput (HTTP 64K) | 830 Mbps |
| Firewall latency | 2.87 µs |
Capacity
| Concurrent sessions | 600,000 |
|---|---|
| New sessions / second | 30,000 |

| Max client-to-gateway IPsec tunnels | 250 |
| SSL VPN throughput | , |
| Concurrent SSL VPN users (recommended max, tunnel mode) | , |

Security Fabric capacity
How much of the rest of the Fabric this model manages directly, with no separate controller.
| Max managed FortiAPs (total / tunnel) | 16 / 8 |
|---|---|
| Max managed FortiSwitches | 8 |
| Max FortiTokens | 500 |
Hardware
| Interfaces | 4x GE RJ45 |

| Local storage | 30 GB (31G) |
| Power supplies | Single AC PS |
| Form factor | Desktop |
| Variants | WiFi |
Wireless
Fortinet does not publish the wireless radio generation per model in the Product Matrix, and the radio and permitted transmit power vary by regional SKU. We confirm the exact wireless specification and the correct regional part number against your country before ordering, a wrong-region FortiWiFi is not a returnable configuration error.
| Integrated access point | Yes; this is the wireless variant of the FortiGate 30G |
|---|---|
| Radio generation | Varies by model and regional SKU, confirmed at quote |
| Regulatory domain | Region-locked SKU, must match country of deployment |
