Allows your business to handily keep up with changes in size,
locations, and business needs with a 3G device that can be
deployed at any site protected by an XTM 2 or 3 Series firewall or
an Edge e-Series firewall.
■
Because the 3G Extend is a separate unit from the firewall, it
can be positioned in whatever location has the best cellular
connectivity.
How it works
■
Purchase a WatchGuard 3G Extend wireless bridge when you
buy an XTM 2 or 3 Series appliance – or buy a 3G Extend device
by itself as an upgrade for an existing XTM 2 or 3 Series, or
Edge e-Series appliance. Add a cellular modem (provided by
your ISP when you sign up for service), follow the simple set-up
instructions, and you’re ready to go. It’s that easy.
