Originally hitting the market in 2016, the FortiGate 60E includes a SoC3 (System-on-a-Chip) architecture that further accelerates networking performance well past the potential of previous generations. The FortiGate 60E was among the first Fortinet firewalls to be integrated into the then-emerging Fortinet Security Fabric infrastructure.<\/p><p>The FortiGate 60E is a Unified Threat Management (UTM) platform that delivers integrate wired and wireless networking for medium-sized organizations. This model includes built-in dual-band, dual-stream wireless with integrated internal antennas providing fast 802.11ac wireless. Further, a USB port located on the rear of the appliance allows for compatibility with 3G or 4G USB modems for additional WAN connectivity.<\/p><p>Though this Next Generation Firewall is a few years old, it continues to stand at the front of the pack when compared to its competitors.
