Sophos XGS 3100 Next-Gen Rackmount Firewall

Description

The Sophos XGS 3100 is a powerhouse security appliance built for organizations that refuse to compromise between high-speed connectivity and deep-layer security. As a standout in the Sophos XGS 1U Series, it utilizes a sophisticated dual-processor architecture. A dedicated Xstream Flow Processor handles hardware acceleration for trusted traffic, while a high-performance multi-core CPU manages deep packet inspection (DPI).

This ensures that your IT team has 100% visibility into encrypted traffic—where the vast majority of modern malware hides—without slowing down business operations.

Unmatched Xstream Architecture & Versatility

• Hardware Acceleration: The Xstream Flow Processor offloads “known good” traffic like SaaS applications (Microsoft 365, Salesforce), SD-WAN data, and VoIP. This “FastPath” technology ensures ultra-low latency for your most critical cloud tools.

• Modular Connectivity (Flexi Port): The XGS 3100 comes with a built-in Flexi Port expansion slot. This allow businesses to customize their port configuration by adding 10GbE SFP+ fiber modules, additional copper ports, or high-density PoE modules as their network scales.

• High-Speed Fiber Uplinks: In addition to the 8 standard GbE copper ports, the unit features 2 x SFP+ 10GbE ports natively, providing high-speed fiber connectivity to your core switches or server farm.

Reliability for Mission-Critical Environments

• Redundancy Ready: To ensure maximum uptime, the XGS 3100 supports an optional second external power supply. This provides hardware-level redundancy, keeping your network protected even during a power component failure.

• Synchronized Security: Through Sophos Central, the XGS 3100 shares real-time telemetry with your protected endpoints. In the event of a breach, the firewall can automatically isolate infected devices, preventing the lateral spread of ransomware across the enterprise.

• Integrated SSD Reporting: Includes a high-speed NVMe SSD for local storage of logs, forensics, and real-time on-box reporting, ensuring fast access to security data when you need it most.
