Sophos XGS 4300 Next-Gen Rackmount Firewall

Description

The Sophos XGS 4300 is built for demanding network environments that require no-compromise security and Multi-Gigabit speeds. Featuring the advanced Xstream Architecture, this 1U rackmount appliance utilizes a dual-processor design. It pairs a high-performance multi-core CPU with a dedicated Xstream Flow Processor to hardware-accelerate trusted traffic, ensuring that your security scanning never creates a bottleneck for your business-critical applications.

 It delivers industry-leading performance for TLS 1.3 inspection, providing deep visibility into encrypted traffic—where nearly all modern threats reside—without sacrificing the user experience or network latency.

Enterprise Connectivity and Modular Scalability

• Dual Flexi Port Expansion: Unlike smaller models, the XGS 4300 features two expansion slots. This allows for massive customization, including the addition of 40GbE QSFP+ modules, high-density PoE ports, or additional 10G fiber banks.

• Hardware Redundancy: For mission-critical uptime, the XGS 4300 supports an optional second internal hot-swappable power supply, ensuring that your network perimeter remains active even during a power component failure.

Elite Protection with Xstream Acceleration

• Zero-Day Threat Protection: Using AI-driven sandboxing and deep learning, the XGS 4300 identifies and blocks ransomware and unknown malware with a 4.8 Gbps Threat Protection rating.

• Xstream FastPath: Automatically identifies and offloads “known-good” traffic like SaaS, SD-WAN, and VoIP to the hardware layer. This results in ultra-low latency (3 µs) for real-time applications like Zoom and Microsoft 365.

• Synchronized Security: Part of the Sophos Central ecosystem, the firewall shares real-time “Heartbeat” telemetry with your endpoints.
