FortiAP wireless access points

The current FortiAP range

From Fortinet's wireless access points page (checked 8 Nov 2026):

How to read a FortiAP model name. Fortinet: "Each model name consists of a prefix (FortiAP) followed by a numerical and alphabetical code. The first digit is the number of streams, the second is the number of radios, the third represents antenna type, the fourth indicates Wi-Fi generation, and the fifth is the product differentiator." In the current table, K models are Wi-Fi 7, G models Wi-Fi 6E and F models Wi-Fi 6, so the FortiAP 231K is a 2-stream, 3-radio Wi-Fi 7 access point and the 441K a 4-stream, 4-radio one.

Which FortiAP for which space

• Small offices and meeting rooms: FortiAP 221K (dual-band Wi-Fi 7) or 231K (tri-band, adds 6 GHz).
• Busy open-plan offices: FortiAP 241K or the 4x4 FortiAP 441K; the 243K and 443K take external antennas for halls and awkward spaces.
• Hotel rooms, classrooms and desks: the wall-plate FortiAP 23JK (Wi-Fi 7) or 23JF (Wi-Fi 6).
• Outdoors: FortiAP 244K (Wi-Fi 7), 234G and 432G (Wi-Fi 6E); the 222KL adds LTE and a LoRaWAN gateway.
• Specialist: the FortiAP 432FR for C1D2 hazardous locations and the FortiAP 831F, with up to 8x8 streams (Fortinet AP page). Add the model and we give the UK part number in your quote.

FortiSASE support is listed by Fortinet for the 231K, 23JK, 241K, 243K, 441K, 443K, 234G and 432G.

FortiAP models and part numbers

Press Add next to a part number to put it in your basket. Where a subscription or support option goes with the hardware, you choose it in the same step and it goes into your basket with the hardware. Part numbers come from the vendor; we confirm each line, quantity and term when we quote.

Managed from your FortiGate, with no extra controller licence

Fortinet's Wireless Product Matrix (Oct 2026): "The FortiGate Wireless Controller is built into all FortiGate models and does not require any additional licensing to use." Fortinet's AP page adds: "Configuration and control of your wireless can be done with the FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall Appliance, FortiGate VM, FortiSASE, or FortiEdge Cloud." FortiEdge Cloud is now called FortiManagement Cloud.

That means one policy for wired, wireless and internet traffic, and the access points appear in the FortiGate dashboard. If you do not have a FortiGate yet, see FortiGate firewalls; for how FortiGate, FortiSwitch and FortiAP work together, see the Fortinet Security Fabric.

FortiCare support and optional services

No subscription is needed for a FortiAP to run with a FortiGate. The options you can add per access point:

• FortiCare Premium (FC-10-[model]-247-02-[term]) or FortiCare Elite (-284-), for 1, 3 or 5 years. Fortinet notes that FortiCare Essential (-314-) is "Available only for renewal and not with initial Hardware purchase", and offers a Premium-to-Elite upgrade (-204-).
• FortiManagement Cloud for FortiAP (FC-10-MGT0A-639-02-12, -36 or -60): the SaaS option when you manage access points without a FortiGate.
• FortiAP G/K Series UTP service (FC-10-APGIS-768-02-12, -36 or -60): FortiGuard application control and web filtering on the access point itself.

Hardware warranty, in Fortinet's words: "Access Points mentioned in this datasheet are covered by a Limited Lifetime Hardware Warranty", with terms in the Fortinet EULA. These are Fortinet's terms; anything we add is confirmed at quote.

UK part numbers and 6 GHz

Every FortiAP is ordered with a regional code. Fortinet's knowledge base maps the United Kingdom to E, and says "This region code is hard-coded for each FortiAP and cannot be changed", so a UK FortiAP 231K is ordered as FAP-231K-E. The hardware rows above show the -E code, except the FortiAP 432FR and 831F, whose UK part numbers we confirm at quote.

Fortinet's data sheet notes for the tri-band models: "For FAP-231K, use of the 6GHz band is subject to regional regulatory authority approval" (the same note covers the 243K, 443K, 23JK, 244K, 432G and 234G). We can set each access point up for UK use as part of installation, with the scope confirmed at quote.

PoE, injectors and power adapters

FortiAP access points are powered from a PoE switch port or an injector. Fortinet's own injectors cover each power level:

• GPI-115: 802.3af, 15.4 W, gigabit.
• GPI-130: 802.3at, up to 30 W, gigabit.
• GPI-145: 802.3bt, up to 60 W, with 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps support for the Wi-Fi 7 models.

Each model's power class is in the FortiAP data sheet. For switches that power FortiAP and are managed from the same FortiGate, see FortiSwitch Secure Access and the PoE budget guide. Accessory codes from Fortinet's price list (Q4 2026):

Older FortiAP models

These codes are not in Fortinet's current access point table (8 Nov 2026). The first two digits follow Fortinet's naming rule above. Send us the model and how it is used and we will suggest the current FortiAP that fits; where Fortinet names a replacement, we use it. End-of-order dates, where Fortinet publishes them, are on Fortinet end of life.

How to order

How ordering works. Press Add next to a part number and it goes into your basket; where the hardware needs a subscription or support term, you pick it in the same step. Add mounts, injectors and accessories, then View basket and Request a quote. We check every line, quantity and term against your site and come back with a personalised quote by email. Nothing is charged online. We can also design, supply, stage, install and configure the wireless network as a project, with the scope confirmed at quote (see network installation).
