Desktop firewall for small networks

The Sophos XGS 128 is a fanless desktop appliance with nine 2.5 GbE copper ports, one SFP fibre port and a 64 GB UFS 2.1 store. It ships new with a 1 year Standard Protection licence bundle. An Intel x86 CPU and 8 GB LPDDR5 memory drive the forwarding plane.

Silent operation and low power

With no moving parts the unit runs silently, suited to noise-sensitive offices. The redesigned architecture cuts power draw by roughly 50 % compared with earlier desktop models. Mean time between failures is rated at 228 927 hours. Dimensions are 320 x 212 x 44 mm and unpacked weight is 2.4 kg.

Licence bundle and management extras

Standard Protection includes base firewall, network protection and web protection plus central orchestration for multi-site SD-WAN oversight. TLS 1.3 inspection decrypts encrypted streams at 1 450 Mbps while deep packet inspection and IPS run at 4 650 Mbps. Zero-day sandboxing and DNS protection extend coverage without extra hardware.

Questions about this item

How do I rack-mount the 320 x 212 x 44 mm desktop chassis and which step is often missed?

Use the optional rack-mount brackets; the step often missed is removing the rubber feet before attaching the brackets so the unit sits flush.

Which component will need replacement first and what is its rated lifetime?

The internal SSD is the only field-replaceable part; its MTBF is 228,927 hours.

At what sustained throughput does TLS 1.3 inspection become the bottleneck?

TLS inspection peaks at 1,450 Mbps, so encrypted traffic above that rate will queue first.
