Branch office appliance

The WatchGuard Firebox T45-W-PoE is a tabletop security appliance built for small offices, branch locations and retail sites. It combines wired and wireless connectivity with a full unified threat management suite in a compact form factor. The unit includes five 1Gb Ethernet ports and an integrated Wi-Fi 6 radio for client access.

Sustained throughput envelope

Firewall throughput ranges from 3.5 Gbps to 4.5 Gbps with a rated maximum of 3.94 Gbps, reflecting real-world inspection workloads rather than burst figures. The platform supports up to 3,850,000 simultaneous sessions and can maintain 30 Branch Office VPN tunnels concurrently without degrading packet processing.

Five-port constraint

Only five 1Gb ports are available, so WAN, LAN, DMZ and wireless segments must share this limited I/O. Buyers who need more physical interfaces or higher multi-gigabit uplink speeds cannot expand the port count on this model. The serial and USB interfaces provide console and storage options but do not add network connectivity.
