Sophos XGS 3100 Security Firewall Appliance – 1U Rack, 47Gbps Firewall, 8xGbE + 2xSFP + 2x10Gb SFP+

Your network's been running on a prayer since the last vendor walked out. Ransomware probed in last week. Your SD-WAN link is chugging. Remote staff sit through five-minute VPN handshakes before they can open an email. You need a firewall that keeps up when you switch on IPS — not one that throttles the moment you actually protect something.

The Sophos XGS 3100 drops into a single 1U of rack space and pushes 47Gbps of firewall throughput, with a dedicated Xstream Flow processor handling the heavy lifting in hardware. You get 8 GbE copper, 2 SFP fibre, and 2 10Gb SFP+ on the face, plus one Flexi Port slot for up to eight more GE ports, 4-port 10GE SFP+, or PoE (60W max) when a site needs it.

IPS runs at 10.5Gbps. IPsec VPN at 25Gbps. TLS inspection at 2.47Gbps. NGFW at 9Gbps. Latency on a 64-byte UDP packet? Four microseconds. That's the gap between your video call working and your team muting each other.

Transceivers sold separately. Optional external redundant PSU available. No dual SSD/RAID on this model — worth knowing before you spec it for a mission-critical site.
