High-Performance Wi-Fi for Demanding Environments
FortiAP High Density Series
Enterprise-Grade High-Density Wi-Fi
High-density environments such as large stadiums and arenas can push traditional Wi-Fi beyond its limits, resulting in congestion, degraded performance, and poor user experiences. Fortinet’s high-density wireless solutions use advanced RF engineering and intelligent antenna arrays to deliver consistent, high-performance connectivity at scale.
Features & Benefits
Key FortiAP-HD features
Performance
High-Performance connectivity at scale
SpotLight directional coverage focuses wireless signals where users need it most. High-gain, dual-polarised antennas enhance MU-MIMO efficiency, delivering faster, more consistent experiences across crowded spaces.
Operations
Simplified deployment and operations
FortiAP-HD accelerates deployment and streamlines operations with real-time, software-defined coverage and centralised control. Rapid rollouts, intuitive configuration, and built-in monitoring provide clear visibility across environments of any size, reducing complexity, operational effort, and cost.
Density
Optimised for high-density environments
FortiAP-HD is optimised for high-density environments, delivering consistent performance as user demand grows. High antenna isolation and a compact form factor enable multi-radio integration, maximising capacity and coverage while reducing infrastructure, deployment complexity, and overall cost.
Models and Specs
FortiAP high-density series models and specifications
Fortinet Wi-Fi solutions address today’s most pressing ultra-high density (UHD) challenges, including high user engagement, increased network capacity, faster throughput, and total cost of ownership (TCO). The UHD wireless platform is designed and built specifically for large venues such as stadiums, arenas, convention centres, shopping malls, transport hubs, auditoriums, campuses, and smart cities, to deliver reliable, scalable, and secure connectivity in even the most demanding environments.
