Comment
SFP transceivers are sold separately.
Comment You can connect a serial console to the Micro USB or RJ45 COM port to access the CLI. Only one port can be used at any time. If both ports are connected, then the Micro USB port will take precedence. The required connection settings are: Ì Bits per second: 38,400 Ì Data bits: 8 Ì Parity: N (none) Ì Stop bits: 1 You can connect a USB 2.0 and/or 3.0 compatible device to these ports (e.g. USB thumb drive, UPS, 3G/4G dongles). Step1: Press for >3 seconds and release Step2: Press for 21 seconds and release Step3: Press and hold for 21 seconds till the Status LED blinks three times in red and then release it. This will reset the unit to factory default settings All configuration, reports, and patterns will be flushed.

Operating Instructions
Starting Operation
Caution: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Scope of Supply
The supplied parts are indicated in the Hardware Quick Start Guide.
Mounting Instructions
The XGS 88/108 appliance can be placed on a stable horizontal surface, can be mounted to a rack, or you can hang it on the wall by using the optionally available rackmount kit.
Warnings and Precautions
The appliance can be operated safely if you observe the following notes and the notes on the appliance itself.
Rack Precautions
Ì Ensure that the leveling jacks on the bottom of the rack are fully extended to the floor with the full weight of the rack resting on them.
Ì In single rack installation, stabilizers should be attached to the rack. Ì In multiple rack installations, the racks should be attached together. Ì Always make sure the rack is stable before extending a component from the rack. Ì You should extend only one component at a time--extending two or
more simultaneously may cause the rack to become unstable.
General Server Precautions
Ì Review the electrical and general safety precautions that came with the components you are adding to your appliance.
Ì Determine the placement of each component in the rack before you install the rails. Ì Install the heaviest server components on the bottom
of the rack first, and then work up. Ì Allow the hot-plug hard drives and power supply
modules to cool before touching them. Ì Always keep the rack`s front door, all panels, and server components
closed when not servicing to maintain proper cooling.

Operating Instructions
Rack Mounting Considerations
Ì Ambient operating temperature: If installed in a closed or multiunit rack assembly, the ambient operating temperature of the rack environment may be greater than the ambient temperature of the room. Therefore, you should install the equipment in an environment compatible with the manufacturer's maximum-rated ambient temperature.
Ì Reduced airflow: Equipment should be mounted into a rack with sufficient airflow to allow cooling.
Ì Mechanical loading: Equipment should be mounted into a rack so that hazardous conditions do not arise due to uneven mechanical loading.
Ì Circuit overloading: Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the power supply circuitry and the effect that any possible overloading of circuits might have on overcurrent protection and power supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Ì Reliable ground: Reliable grounding must be maintained at all times. To ensure this, the rack itself should be grounded. Particular attention should be given to power supply connections other than the direct connections to the branch circuit (i.e., the use of power strips, etc.).
Connection and Configuration
How to connect the appliance is described in the Hardware Quick Start Guide. For configuration you can follow the initial setup wizard described in the Web Admin Quick Start Guide or cancel it and perform a manual setup (see the Sophos Firewall How-To Library).
Serial Console
You can connect a serial console to either of the COM ports of the Sophos XGS hardware appliances. You can use, for instance, the Hyperterminal terminal program which is included with most versions of Microsoft Windows to log on to the appliance console. Use an RJ45 to DB9 adapter cable or the provided USB cable to connect the console to your hardware appliance.
The required connection settings are:
Ì Bits per second: 38,400
Ì Data bits: 8
Ì Parity: N (none)
Ì Stop bits: 1
Access via the serial console is activated by default on ttyS0. The connections of the appliances and the respective functionality are listed in the chapter `Operating Elements and Connections'.
Please Note: If you are connecting to the Micro USB port and it doesn't show up as a COM port but as unknown hardware in your system, please download a Micro USB Driver from https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers/.
