Sophos XGS 88 firewall appliance

The Sophos XGS 88 is a desktop and rack-mountable network security appliance built for small offices and branch locations. It provides wired 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity through four RJ-45 ports plus dedicated management interfaces. An Intel x86 CPU with 4 GB LPDDR5 memory and 16 GB eMMC storage runs the Sophos Firewall operating system.

Fanless thermal design and power draw

The unit operates without fans, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments such as open-plan offices or reception areas. Its redesigned architecture reduces power consumption by 50 percent compared with earlier desktop models. Mean time between failures is rated at 936,308 hours.

Bundled licence bundle changes protection scope

The Xstream Protection bundle activates Base License, Network Protection, Web Protection, Zero-Day Protection, Central Orchestration, DNS Protection, MDR and third-party threat feeds, NDR Essential Protection and Enhanced Support. These licences enable TLS 1.3 inspection at 600 Mbps, IPS and NGFW throughput of 2,000 Mbps, and IPsec VPN throughput of 6,000 Mbps. Buyers who need wireless connectivity or expansion slots cannot add them to this model.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the 200 × 180 × 44 mm desktop appliance in a rack and which step is often missed?

Use the optional rack-mount brackets; the step often missed is securing both front and rear brackets so the 1.4 kg unit cannot shift under cable tension.

Which component will likely need replacement first during long-term operation?

The internal fanless cooling path relies on unrestricted airflow; dust buildup on the vents is the first maintenance item that degrades thermal performance.

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

TLS inspection tops out at 600 Mbps, so encrypted traffic above that rate will queue while other engines still have headroom.
