Product Description
APX-Serie - Next Generation Access Points
Although Next Generation has become a bit of a buzzword for new Sophos products, the brand new APX series is indeed a step forward. Of course, the APX 530 is equipped with the latest technologies, such as the Wave 2 standard. In terms of performance, it even doubles the performance of its predecessor, the AP 100.
With the APX series, Sophos also introduces the first access points that are security heartbeat-enabled and can benefit from Synchronized Security.
Requirements
If you buy a Next Generation Access Point, you must be aware that it will only work with the latest technologies from Sophos! The Sophos APX 530 is only compatible with Sophos Central Wireless 2.0 or an XG firewall (at least SFOS 17.5.3)! The UTM operating system (UTM/SG series) is no longer supported. If you are not using an XG firewall or Sophos Central Wireless 2.0, you can still use the old Sophos access points. These will not be removed from the assortment for the time being.
Area of use
Like all APs of the APX series, they are designed for indoor use. If you are looking for an outdoor access point, the current AP 100X model is still the best choice.
The APX 530 is ideal for offices with a few employees who need high capacity.
