XGS Series Next-Gen Firewall Appliances

Enterprise Edge: 2U Models

Distributed and growing enterprises who require maximum throughput for even the most complex network get no-compromise protection, performance, and business continuity with these next-gen firewalls. The new Xstream Flow Processors provide dedicated hardware acceleration to easily handle full-on protection for today’s encrypted, cloud-hosted applications and traffic. These models strike the perfect balance between port density and modularity, with a range of high-speed, built-in ports, plus additional high-density Flexi port modules available to extend connectivity even further.

All models are powered by a high-speed CPU plus a dedicated Xstream Flow Processor for hardware acceleration.
