Sophos Firewall
The other half of firewall-backed Wi-Fi. SSIDs tunneled through the firewall get the same Xstream deep packet inspection as wired traffic, on whatever SSIDs you select.
Sophos Wireless Access Points are enterprise-grade Wi-Fi 6 APs cloud-managed from Sophos Central. Optionally route traffic through a Sophos Firewall for deep inspection on the SSIDs that need it, and let Synchronized Security automatically quarantine clients flagged by Sophos endpoint protection.
Most wireless products end at “the signal is strong.” Sophos Wireless integrates with the rest of your Sophos Central stack so the AP isn’t just a radio - it’s a security enforcement point.
802.11ax with OFDMA, MU-MIMO, BSS coloring, and target wake time. The performance and density of modern Wi-Fi 6, sized for client counts from one office to a stadium.
Configure SSIDs, RF settings, policies, and firmware updates from Sophos Central. No on-prem controller hardware to license, replace, or hide in a wiring closet.
Per-SSID option to tunnel traffic through the Sophos Firewall for deep packet inspection, app control, and TLS inspection. Reserve heavy inspection for sensitive SSIDs only.
When Intercept X flags a host as compromised, the AP can automatically quarantine that client’s wireless connection. No analyst pivot, no manual MAC ban.
Built-in captive portal with social login, voucher codes, and time-limited access. Ideal for hotels, clinics, retail, and any space serving non-employee Wi-Fi users.
Indoor and outdoor models draw power over Ethernet from a Sophos switch or any standards-compliant PoE+ source. No separate power runs needed.
Not every SSID needs deep packet inspection. The corporate VLAN handling line-of-business apps probably does. The guest network handing out coffee-shop-grade browsing probably doesn’t. Sophos Wireless lets you pick per SSID.
Wi-Fi that integrates with the rest of the security stack matters most where Wi-Fi IS the network - smaller offices, multi-site fleets, and high-density guest environments.
Single-site organizations where Wi-Fi is the main connectivity layer. Cloud-managed APs that share policy with the firewall mean one config story, not three vendors.
One vendor for the whole stackRetail chains, distributed clinics, and franchise networks. Push the same SSID, RF, and security policy to every location from Sophos Central; troubleshoot any site remotely.
Centralized policy at every siteHotels, conference centres, public spaces. Built-in voucher system, social login, captive portal, and per-SSID isolation keep guest networks compliant and easy to operate.
Guest Wi-Fi without the headachesSophos Wireless is most useful as part of the broader Sophos Central network. These are the products it pairs with most often.

The other half of firewall-backed Wi-Fi. SSIDs tunneled through the firewall get the same Xstream deep packet inspection as wired traffic, on whatever SSIDs you select.
PoE+ switches power the APs and deliver wired connectivity in the same Sophos Central console. The cleanest deployment is APs powered directly off Sophos switches.

Synchronized Security requires Sophos-protected endpoints. When the endpoint flags a threat, the wireless AP automatically quarantines the client at the network layer.
