IO South buys used FortiGate 100F, 200F and 400F series firewalls from businesses across the United States and worldwide. These are the mid-range FortiGates, the appliances that sit at the edge of a campus, a mid-size data center or a regional office, and they come to us when a company consolidates sites, moves to a larger model, or migrates to a different vendor. We are the buyer, not a broker. We resell Fortinet hardware every week, so we know what a 200F is worth right now and can make a real offer quickly.
A FortiGate ships with hardware and a support contract, and the two are separate in the resale market. We buy the hardware with or without an active FortiCare or FortiGuard contract. If the contract is active, tell us the expiry date, because some buyers value it. If it has lapsed, that is normal and not a problem. What we do ask is that you remove each unit from your FortiCloud account before handoff, so the next owner can register it under theirs, and that you do not promise us any license transfer, because that is between the next owner and Fortinet. We factory-reset every appliance we receive, which clears the configuration, the VPN keys and the admin accounts.
Mid-range FortiGates are often deployed in pairs. We buy pairs as pairs, which usually means a better offer than two singles, because the next owner wants matched hardware and matched firmware. If you are decommissioning a cluster, leave the units together until pickup and tell us they were a set.
Fortinet has a large installed base, and a lot of businesses standardize on FortiGate across every site. When one of them adds a branch, replaces a failed unit, or needs a matched spare for a high-availability pair, a tested used 100F or 200F at a fraction of the new price is the obvious buy. That steady demand is what lets us make a firm offer on your units.
Data centers, colocation facilities, hospitals, schools, government offices and businesses across the United States, and overseas sites that are refreshing to newer equipment. A decommission is a project, not a pickup: we plan the sequence, label and palletize on site, arrange freight, and keep a record of what left the building. IO South has offices in Marietta, Georgia and Cincinnati, Ohio.
IO South is an established enterprise IT hardware company that buys and resells Fortinet security appliances, FortiSwitch and FortiAP, Cisco and Aruba networking, and servers every day. Hundreds of Fortinet units move through our Marietta, Georgia and Cincinnati, Ohio facilities, which is why we can tell you what a FortiGate 200F is worth this week and stand behind the number. One offer, one pickup, configurations wiped, freight paid.

Yes. We buy mid-range FortiGates with or without active support. An active contract is not required and a lapsed one is not a problem. Tell us the status and we quote accordingly.
The 100F and 101F, the 200F and 201F, the 400F and 401F, and the 600F and 601F, plus the earlier E-series equivalents such as the 100E, 200E, 300E, 400E, 500E and 600E. Tell us the exact model from the label and we tell you what has a resale offer.
Yes, please remove the unit from your FortiCloud or FortiGate Cloud account before handoff so the next owner can register it. If you cannot, tell us and we will walk you through it. We factory-reset every unit we receive.
Both. One 200F from a closed office is a normal purchase. So is a stack of 100Fs from a branch refresh. Quantity affects the offer, not whether we make one.
Yes. Include the SFP and SFP+ modules, the rack ears and the second power supply where fitted. Complete units resell faster, and we quote the accessories as part of the lot.
