Falling under the FortiGate 5000 product line series, the products include three new chassis and blades and load balancing devices.

The chassis come in two (FortiGate 5020), four (FortiGate 5040) and 14 (FortiGate 5140) slot configurations, with each slot yielding 4Gbps throughput.

The company is also selling three blades which slot into the new chassis. The FortiGate 5001 is fiber based, FortiGate 5002 copper based; and FortiGate-5005 copper and fiber based.

The company also introduced a 10Gbps security blade for screening high-volume traffic in large organizations.

The FortiController 5208 blade can aggregate traffic from smaller Fortinet security blades for uplinks to 10Gbps backbones. The device supports a firewall, VPN, anti-virus, antispyware and intrusion-prevention software.
