Product Features
Technical Overview
The Firebox T125 provides a balanced technical profile for secure gateway operations. Its core firewall engine processes up to 26,500 new connections per second, enabling rapid session establishment for user traffic. The appliance supports both 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet and standard Gigabit Ethernet interfaces across its five RJ-45 ports, offering flexibility for connecting to high-speed uplinks or internal network segments.
Security processing is handled through dedicated subsystems: VPN throughput reaches 184.32 MB/s for encrypted tunnel performance, while IPS throughput is rated at 90.63 MB/s for deep packet inspection workloads. The unit employs TLS as its primary encryption standard and manages traffic using protocols including L2TP, HTTPS, HTTP, FTP, TCP/UDP, and SMTPS.
This section brings together practical product details such as Functionality, Firewall Protection Supported, Firewall Throughput, Total Number of Ports, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

Deployment / Use Cases
The Firebox T125 serves as a primary security gateway for small business networks, providing the first line of defense against external threats. Its throughput capabilities and port configuration make it effective for locations with moderate internet bandwidth requirements and standard office networking equipment.
Common deployment scenarios include securing branch office connections back to corporate headquarters via VPN tunnels, protecting retail point-of-sale systems and customer Wi-Fi networks, and serving as the internet firewall for professional offices with 10-50 users. The appliance's manageable nature allows IT teams to maintain consistent security policies across distributed locations.
Branch Office Security
Deploy at remote offices to establish secure VPN tunnels to headquarters while providing local threat protection for branch users and devices.
Small Business Perimeter
Serve as the main internet firewall for small businesses, inspecting all inbound and outbound traffic for threats while managing user access policies.
