Nine 2.5 GE ports, built-in Wi-Fi 6, and an expansion slot for a 5G module — the Sophos XGS 118W is built for the office that's outgrown the mid-range box but doesn't need rack-mount. 15.5 Gbps firewall throughput. 3,500 Mbps IPS. 13 Gbps IPsec VPN. Whisper-quiet operation means it sits on a desk in a clinic, classroom, or retail back office without anyone noticing. The expansion bay takes a Gen.2 5G module for redundant cellular or fixed wireless access. Dual-band 802.11ax with 2X2:2 MIMO and two external antennas. SFP fibre uplink for the switch or ISP. AU power cord included. Ships direct from Sophos. Requires MSP Flex under a 12-month HWaaS commitment
