In May of 2022 Fortinet sent out a press release announcing that they have three new firewalls in the pipeline that will be coming soon. Those new 2022 models include the Fortigate 70F, Fortigate 3700F, and the Fortigate 600F. All three models are evenly distributed to offer the updated FortiOS 7.2 operating system to small, mid range, and enterprise businesses.
What has many excited is that these firewall devices will include the recently announced AI powered FortiGuard Security Services. This power security feature is just the latest advancement in the ever evolving Fortifabric offered by Fortinet.
At the time of the May 2022 press release for the new Fortigate firewalls, no official timetable has been given to when these devices will be available to ship to customers. As with all cyber security company who manufacture firewalls, inventory and logistics are currently hurdles that need to be overcome. We anticipate that we might see these firewalls shipping out sometime before July, but in limited quantities
Most Fortinet Fortigates are currently on backorder will be for sometime and not one reseller has better access to inventory than any other. The best way to buy a new Fortinet firewall is to place an order in now because orders are filled by the “first come first serve” policy.
If you want to buy one of the new 2022 Fortinet firewalls (70F, 3700F, 600F), you’ll have to wait. No pricing, sku, specs, or really any other official information about the product has been released. Once Fortinet relays that information to their distribution network, you’ll see product available for pre-order.
As of right now no information with regards to pricing has been announced by Fortinet for their new 2022 firewalls. Our estimates are they will all cost slightly higher than the models they will be replacing. You can view those models here;
