Desktop firewall for small offices

The SonicWall TZ270 ships as a desktop appliance with 8x1GbE ports and two USB 3.0 interfaces. It supports up to 1000 concurrent users and 750000 simultaneous sessions. The bundle includes a 3-year Advanced Protection Security Suite and one year of Cloud Secure Edge for remote access.

Sustained threat-prevention throughput

Under continuous inspection the unit delivers 750 Mbps for threat prevention and anti-malware scanning. Application inspection and IPS throughput each hold at 1 Gbps, while raw firewall inspection peaks at 2 Gbps. These figures represent steady-state capacity rather than short-burst ratings.

3-year Advanced Protection Security Suite included

The licence bundle is the deciding factor: it provides gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention, DPI SSL, content filtering and Capture Advanced Threat Protection for three years. Buyers who need a longer licence term or a different service tier must choose another SKU.
