Sophos CS101-8
Connectivity, Power, and Control

Connectivity at the LAN Edge

The Sophos Switch Series provides secure, scalable Ethernet access for your wired and wireless devices and puts your LAN connectivity fully under your control.

• Devices, devices everywhere
  

  A security approach to network segmentation often begins at your switch. Configure virtual local area networks (VLANs) to segment your internal traffic and reduce the attack surface in case of an infection or breach. Secure VLANs can prevent guest devices from adding risk and enhance security at the access layer.

• Segmentation for security
  

  Stop the latest ransomware and breaches with high-performance streaming deep packet inspection, including next-gen IPS, web protection, and app control, as well as deep learning and sandboxing powered by SophosLabs Intelix.

• SMB and SD-Branch
  

  Many businesses have pieced together a colorful range of network equipment in an attempt to somehow make connectivity work amid rapidly changing requirements. Sophos switches provide a simple solution to connect an ever-increasing range of devices to your network.

Highlights:

• Access layer switches with 8, 24 or 48 1 GE or 2.5 GE ports
• SFP (1G) or SFP+ (10G) uplink ports on all models
• Power-over-Ethernet options available to power PoEcapable devices
• Easy to set up and deploy
• Multiple management options including Sophos Central
• Ideal for branch office, retail and SMB use cases
• A single vendor for the full network stack

Access Layer Switch Range

The Sophos Switch Series offers a range of network access layer switches to connect and power the devices connecting to the Local Area Network (LAN), while adding security controls and segmentation at the all-important LAN edge.

• Ethernet options
  

  We offer two different series within our model range:

  • 100 Series models offer 1 GE ports plus either SFP or SFP+.
  • 200 Series models are equipped with 2.5 GE and 1 GE ports plus SFP+ (varies by model).

  Each series includes models with 8, 24 and 48 ports.

• Power over Ethernet
  

  Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows you to both connect and power your PoE-capable devices, such as access points, security cameras and IP phones, via a single Ethernet cable. Your management interface of choice provides visibility into the power consumption and the remaining PoE budget.

• Deployment options
  

  While most 24- and 48-port models will find their future home in a rack, our entry-level 8-port models are also suitable for wall mounting or desktop use, making them the ideal choice for deployments outside of the standard datacenter environment. All switches come with a suitable mounting kit.
