Product Features
Technical Overview
At the core of the Firebox T45-W-PoE is a sophisticated security engine that provides multiple layers of protection against modern threats. The appliance supports stateful packet filtering, secure IPsec VPN connectivity, and comprehensive threat prevention including malware protection, ransomware defense, application control, and botnet detection. Advanced features like TLS decryption, DNS security, and cloud sandboxing provide additional protection against encrypted threats and zero-day attacks.
The networking foundation includes five auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T ports that support both LAN and WAN configurations, with one port capable of delivering PoE+ power to connected devices. Wireless connectivity is provided through integrated 802.11ax Wi-Fi 6 technology, offering improved speed, capacity, and efficiency compared to previous wireless standards. Management is fully supported through WatchGuard's intuitive interface, with all logging and reporting functions included in the base package.
