Networking Instant On Secure Gateway 5-port SmartRate 2.5G PoE+ 64W SG2505P

Introduction

The HPE Networking Instant On Secure Gateway is a powerful, cloud-managed security solution designed for small and growing businesses. It delivers enterprise-grade security—firewall, IDS/IPS, VPN, PoE, and WAN resiliency—without hidden fees or licenses. Managed through a single platform, it offers domain blocking, deep packet inspection, and 24x7 network monitoring to protect against cyberthreats. Designed with ease of use in mind, it enables minimum-touch deployment and automated configuration, making network setup and management accessible even for non-technical users. Ideal for securing customer data, transactions, and multi-site connectivity, this gateway provides easy, reliable control tailored to SMB needs, combining simplicity with top-tier protection.

Active Threat Monitoring with Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDS/IPS)
- IDS and IPS monitor network traffic for suspicious activities. IDS detects and alerts administrators about potential security breaches, while IPS actively blocks or prevents threats in real-time.
- Together, IDS and IPS enhance network security by identifying and responding to potential intrusions.

Keep the Network Safe with a Stateful Firewall
- This monitors and controls network traffic based on policies, creating a barrier between trusted internal networks and untrusted external networks to prevent unauthorized access and cyber threats.
- Default settings block external traffic from accessing the LAN. policies can allow or block traffic, enable port-forwarding, and client access.

Keep the Business Online with WAN Resiliency
- This feature enables continuous connectivity during network disruptions using multiple ISP connections.
- The secure gateway detects issues (link degradation or failure) and reroutes traffic to the best available ISP uplink, reducing downtime and service interruptions.

Multi-Gigabit and PoE Ports (SG2505P)
- Great for small and medium businesses with ISP throughputs faster than a gigabit, utilizes the 2.5 G ports on the SG2505P for maximum throughput.
- A PoE budget of 60W makes the SG2505P a smart choice for deploying a compact and easy-to-manage network by powering Instant On access points without an additional switch.
