Sophos Wireless
Sophos Wireless is a range of business Wi-Fi access points managed from the cloud alongside the rest of your Sophos security. It gives you secure, reliable wireless that is run from the same console as your Sophos firewall and endpoints, rather than as a separate island nobody owns. 4iT designs the coverage, installs the access points, and manages them for Sydney businesses.

scales from one office to many without extra tools
Key facts
- Sophos Wireless access points are managed from Sophos Central or directly from a Sophos Firewall.
- Security features include WPA3 encryption, rogue access point detection, and wireless intrusion prevention.
- Managing Wi-Fi in the same console as security means guest, staff, and device networks follow consistent policy.
- It integrates with Synchronized Security, so a compromised device can be flagged at the wireless layer.
- The same console scales from a single office to multiple sites without adding separate management tools.
Why manage Wi-Fi from your security console?
Running wireless from the same platform as your firewall and endpoints means one set of policies and one place to see what is connected. Most SME Wi-Fi problems we are called about are not really Wi-Fi problems, they are management problems: a guest network with no isolation, staff and IoT devices sharing one flat network, no visibility into what is connected. Managing access points through Sophos Central puts all of that in one view where it can actually be controlled.
Is Sophos Wireless right for my business?
Sophos Wireless is a strong fit when you are already running Sophos for security and want your Wi-Fi to sit in the same managed platform. We will be straight with you here: for some clients, particularly those with large or complex wireless needs, we deploy Ubiquiti UniFi instead, which we also know deeply. The right choice depends on your environment, not on which logo we feel like selling that week. If Wi-Fi is your pain point, our guide to common business Wi-Fi problems for Sydney SMEs covers what usually goes wrong.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on your floor area, wall construction, and how many devices connect at once, not just headcount. A small open-plan office might need two, a multi-level site with thick walls many more. We assess coverage rather than guessing from staff numbers.
Yes. We set up isolated networks for guests, staff, and devices so they cannot see each other, which is both a security and a performance benefit. Guest Wi-Fi that can reach your internal systems is a common and avoidable risk.
In most cases yes, though we check your switching and cabling first, since access points need adequate power and uplink. Where the wiring is the bottleneck we will say so rather than blaming the Wi-Fi.
If your Wi-Fi drops out, will not reach the back office, or was never set up properly, we can fix that. Call 4iT on 1800 367 448 and we will sort your coverage.
