Notes

Cellular modules are sold for a carrier region. The -AM variants are the North American ones; confirm the region code matches the carrier before ordering.

Throughput figures quoted for a modem module are the module maximums and depend on carrier network, band and signal conditions.

Region-specific power adapters are ordered separately on several models.

Specifications are as published by Fortinet and may change without notice. Confirm the current revision before ordering.

Overview

FortiExtender Vehicle 511G

Rugged 5G Sub-6GHz router for vehicle and OT applications — up to 3.4 Gbps down on the module, dual SIM with a reserved eSIM.

Wireless WAN, managed from the FortiGate

FortiExtender puts a cellular WAN link under the same management as the rest of the Fortinet estate. It terminates on the FortiGate, so the link becomes another WAN interface available to SD-WAN policy rather than a separate connection with its own console. That matters most where wired circuits are slow to provision, unreliable, or simply absent — branch openings, temporary sites, failover for a single-circuit office, and vehicles or OT assets that move.

What the FortiExtender Vehicle 511G is

FortiExtenderVehicle-511G Rugged Broadband Wireless WAN Router for Vehicle and OT applications with 1x "Dual SIM 5G Sub-6GHz M.2 Module (DL/UL=3.4Gbps/0.46Gbps)" + 1x reserved eSIM for NA/EMEA/APAC Carriers. It has 1x 2.5GE WAN + 4x GE LAN RJ45 ports, 1x USB2.0 Type A, 1x DB9 console port and an industrial digital I/O port for external device control, and provides 2x2 2.4/5GHz concurrent 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax WiFi6 speeds up to 1800Mbps (Max.) and Bluetooth 5.0 communication. Region Code A

Carrier region matters

Cellular modules are built and certified for a carrier region, and the region is part of the part number — the -AM variants are the North American ones. A unit ordered for the wrong region will not attach to a Canadian carrier, so the region code is worth confirming before the order goes in rather than after. Several models also take a region-specific power adapter that is ordered separately.
