Sophos XGS 2100 Firewall Appliance

The Sophos XGS 2100 is a 1U rackmount network security appliance designed for mid-sized and distributed organisations. It combines an AMD x86 CPU with a dedicated Marvell NPU to run full inspection features without sacrificing throughput. Eight Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and two SFP fibre ports provide flexible WAN and LAN connectivity. The unit ships with 8 GB of DDR4 system memory and a 120 GB SATA SSD for logs and signatures.

Suited for Encrypted Traffic Inspection

Organisations that need TLS 1.3 decryption at 1.1 Gbps and IPS throughput of 6 Gbps will find the performance envelope matches typical branch requirements. Buyers who require higher VPN throughput or more expansion bays should evaluate larger models in the range. The fixed port layout and lack of PoE support also mean it does not fit deployments needing powered endpoints directly from the firewall.

Dual Processor Architecture with NPU

The defining specification is the dual-processor design pairing the host CPU with a Marvell Xstream Flow Processor. This hardware offloads trusted traffic through FastPath acceleration while the NPU handles deep packet inspection and threat analysis. The architecture delivers 30 Gbps firewall throughput and 16.5 Gbps IMIX performance in a compact 1U form factor.

Highlights

  • TLS 1.3 inspection reveals threats inside 1.1 Gbps encrypted traffic
  • Zero-day protection blocks unknown malware with machine learning and sandboxing
  • FastPath acceleration offloads trusted apps to boost firewall throughput to 30 Gbps
  • SD-WAN orchestration manages multiple WAN links for resilient branch connectivity
  • Dual-processor architecture runs IPS at 6 Gbps without slowing the data plane

Questions about this item

Does the Sophos XGS 2100 JG2A1CSUS include the rackmount kit or must it be ordered separately?

The 1U short chassis ships with a rackmount kit included in the box, so no separate bracket purchase is required for standard cabinet installation.

How do I decide whether the 8 GB DDR4 and 120 GB SATA configuration suits my throughput needs?

The appliance delivers 30 Gbps firewall throughput, 1.1 Gbps TLS inspection, 16.5 Gbps IMIX and 6 Gbps IPS performance with this memory and storage sizing.

What does the 30 Gbps firewall figure mean when the unit is processing live traffic?

It represents the maximum raw packet processing rate under ideal conditions; real-world throughput will be lower once inspection features such as IPS or TLS decryption are enabled.
