Product overview

Security designed for the intended environment.

Firebox T185 is the highest-performance tabletop appliance in the current Firebox T Series. It is intended for larger branches, high-traffic distributed locations and organizations that require multi-gigabit copper, 10 Gb fibre and stronger inspected performance in a compact form factor.

Two 2.5 GbE interfaces support PoE+, allowing compatible devices to receive network connectivity and power from the firewall. T185 should also be compared with M295 and M395 when rack mounting, high availability or future headquarters growth is required.
