Sophos XGS 136w Next-Gen Firewall with Wi-Fi

Description

The Sophos XGS 136w is a versatile, desktop Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW) designed for businesses that require high-speed performance and robust security in a single device. Part of the Sophos XGS Series, it features a unique dual-processor architecture: a high-speed CPU paired with a dedicated Xstream Flow Processor. This combination allows the XGS 136w to handle demanding tasks like deep packet inspection (DPI) and TLS 1.3 acceleration without impacting your network’s speed.

The “w” version comes with integrated Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), offering a clean, all-in-one networking solution. With 10 x Gigabit ports and 2 x 2.5 GbE ports with PoE+, this appliance can power external devices like IP cameras or additional access points while serving as your primary secure wireless hub.

Elite Performance and Xstream Architecture

• Dedicated Hardware Acceleration: The Xstream Flow Processor offloads trusted traffic, such as SaaS and cloud applications, to the hardware layer. This results in ultra-low latency and superior performance for critical apps like Microsoft 365 and Zoom.

• High-Density Multi-Gigabit Connectivity: Featuring two 2.5 GbE Multi-Gigabit ports, the XGS 136w supports modern high-speed infrastructure. These ports are also PoE+ (802.3at) enabled, providing up to 30W of power per port for external hardware.

• Built-in Secure Wireless: The integrated Wi-Fi 5 radio with 3×3 MIMO technology provides wide-reaching, secure coverage. For environments needing simultaneous dual-band or extended range, the unit also supports an optional second Wi-Fi module via the expansion bay.

Enterprise Security for the Modern Office

• Deep Packet Inspection (DPI): With a 1,000 Mbps Threat Protection rating, the XGS 136w scans your network for ransomware, malware, and zero-day threats in real-time.

• Expandable and Future-Proof: The modular expansion bay allows you to add a 5G or 4G/LTE module for redundant internet connectivity, ensuring your business stays online even if your primary ISP fails.

• Silent, Desktop Form Factor: Despite its enterprise power, the XGS 136w is designed for silent operation, making it perfect for placement directly on a desk or in a small wall-mount cabinet.
