Performance test methodology
| General | Maximum throughput measured under ideal test conditions using industry-standard Keysight-Ixia BreakingPoint test tools. Actual performance may vary depending on network conditions and activated services. |
| Firewall | Measured using HTTP traffic and 512 KB response size. |
| Firewall IMIX | UDP throughput based on a combination of 66 byte, 570 byte, and 1518 byte packet sizes. |
| IPS | Measured using HTTP traffic, default IPS ruleset, and 512 KB object size. |
| IPsec VPN | HTTP throughput measured using multiple tunnels and 512 KB HTTP response size. |
| TLS inspection | Measured with IPS enabled on HTTPS sessions and different cipher suites. |
| Threat protection | Measured with firewall, IPS, application control, and malware prevention enabled using Enterprise Mix traffic. |

Accessories
3G/4G or 5G connectivity
For XGS 116, 126, and 136 models only
Our desktop appliances are often deployed in remote locations where flexible connectivity is essential. The expansion bay on the XGS 116, 126, and 136 models provides the option to add either a 3G/4G or a 5G module to your appliance. These optional modules can be securely mounted and managed from your Sophos Firewall console for optimum compatibility.
- Better performance with common standards supported
- 3G/4G module supports LTE Cat 6 and up to 300 Mbps download/50 Mbps upload
- 5G module supports 5G sub-6 bands with download speeds of up to 4.5 Gbps and upload speeds of up to 660 Mbps (depending on carrier and region)
- Full protection from theft and damage
3G/4G module:
- Two different versions: Europe/Americas and Asia-Pacific
5G module (Gen.1):
- One version for all regions
Second Wi-Fi radio module
For XGS 116w, 126w, and 136w only
Improve Wi-Fi coverage and performance in your office by adding a second Wi-Fi radio to selected XGS models. Adding a second radio with two extra antennas to a model with built-in Wi-Fi allows you to broadcast in both the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands simultaneously for an overall better Wi-Fi experience.
