WXA 2000 WAN Acceleration Appliance

The SonicWALL® WAN Acceleration Appliance (WXA) 2000 reduces application latency and conserves bandwidth, significantly enhancing WAN application performance and improving the end user experience for distributed organizations with remote and branch offices. Unlike standalone acceleration products, the SonicWALL WXA 2000 seamlessly integrates with SonicWALL E-Class Network Security Appliance (NSA), NSA and TZ Series Unified Threat Management (NGFW) Firewall solutions to offer the unique combined benefit of both prioritizing and minimizing application traffic between sites, resulting in optimal network performance.

Features

The WXA 2000 hardware appliance improves application performance through innovative WAN acceleration and optimization technology, allowing remote users to collaborate, share and revise large files more effectively and efficiently.

Powerful performance.
With 2 GB of RAM and a 250 GB hard drive, the WXA 2000 can support up to 120 users and 600 concurrent flows on a single appliance.

Bandwidth optimization.
The WXA 2000 remembers data that has been transferred previously, and through data de-duplication, replaces repeated bytes sequences with an identifier to reduce application latency and conserve bandwidth.

Simplified deployment.
As an add-on solution to SonicWALL firewall appliances, the WXA 2000 drastically reduces the complexity of deploying, routing and managing the WXA appliance.

Reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
By improving the efficiency and overall utilization of existing WAN bandwidth, the WXA 2000 helps businesses avoid incurring higher monthly expenses to increase WAN bandwidth capacity.

Data compression.
The WXA 2000 increases network performance while reducing latency by compressing data sent across the WAN.
