Overview
XGS Series | SMB and branch office: 2nd Gen XGS desktop models
Unlock supreme desktop performance, improved energy efficiency, and a wealth of new high-speed connectivity options.
Sophos second-generation XGS Series desktop appliances deliver double the performance of our first-generation models while cutting power consumption in half. All these desktop firewalls include 2.5 GE interfaces, allowing traffic to flow freely and without bottlenecks, from your firewall to your 2.5 GE switch to your Wi-Fi 6 access point.
Customers with noise-sensitive environments such as healthcare, education, and retail will love the whisper-quiet operation of the fanless XGS 88 and XGS 108 models. Using the expansion bay, an optional 5G module adds either redundant cellular connectivity or cost-effective 5G fixed wireless access (FWA).
The XGS 88 to XGS 128 models feature a streamlined, single-CPU architecture that utilizes virtual FastPath technology for traffic acceleration (in combination with Sophos Firewall OS v21 and higher). As our gateway model to the distributed edge, the XGS 138 boasts a dedicated Xstream Flow processor for hardware acceleration and two 10 GE SFP+ interfaces for high-speed fiber connectivity. All models except the XGS 138 are optionally available with built-in Wi-Fi.
Highlights
- All protection features are supported on every XGS 1xx desktop model and most are available on XGS 88 and XGS 88w.
- Accelerated performance: Up to double the throughput of Gen.1 models plus Xstream virtual FastPath acceleration for IPsec VPN (XGS 88 to XGS 128) in combination with SFOS v21 and higher
- High-speed connectivity built in: 2.5 GE interfaces on everymodel,two built-in 10 GE SFP+ interfaces on the XGS 138, and Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) integrated on all w-models with concurrent use of the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands for better performance
- Power and environment: Up to 50% lower power consumption, fanless XGS 88 and 108 models for whisper-quiet operation, optimized thermal design for XGS 118 and above, and redundant power option for all XGS 1xx models
- Optional connectivity: New 5G module available exclusively for Gen.2 models for more cost-effective redundant connectivity
- Streamlined hardware architecture: The XGS 88 to XGS 128 models boast a new single-CPU architecture while the XGS 138 has a refreshed dual-processor architecture
