SonicWALL TZ 210 Wireless Series

Overview:

Factors like Web 2.0 applications, streaming video, evolving threats and new threat delivery vectors are overwhelming both the security and performance of traditional firewalls. The stateful packet inspection firewalls installed over the years by many organizations are unable to detect malware embedded in network traffic, nor are they able to identify and control applications being used on the network.

By integrating gateway anti-virus, anti-spyware, intrusion prevention, content filtering, anti-spam and application control, the SonicWALL® TZ Series of Unified Threat Management (UTM) Firewalls shatters these limitations by offering high performance multi-layered network protection. SonicWALL Application Intelligence and Control helps administrators control and manage both business and non-business related applications to enable network and user productivity. Utilizing SonicWALL’s unique Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection™ (RFDPI) technology,* the TZ Series delivers in-depth protection at unparalleled performance. The TZ Series also provides IPSec and SSL VPN remote access, VoIP, and 802.11b/g/n wireless, and 3G wireless multi-WAN connectivity. Designed for the needs of small businesses, branch offices, distributed enterprise sites, retailers and managed service providers, the TZ Series supports the highest speeds available from modern ISPs while delivering full UTM protection. Each TZ appliance is available as a SonicWALL TotalSecure™ solution, conveniently bundling all hardware and services needed for comprehensive protection.
