SonicWall SOHO, TZ300
& TZ300 W Firewalls Enter Active Retirement Mode SonicWall has initiated a worldwide End-of-Sale for the SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 W firewall appliances beginning January 22, 2020. At this same time, SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 W firewalls will enter Active Retirement Mode (ARM). During this phase, SonicWall will no longer actively manufacture or sell the product. Support and services SKUs will be offered through the End-of-Support phase (January 22, 2025). SonicWall SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 W appliances are now eligible for upgrade through the SonicWall Secure Upgrade Plus program. Now is the time to transition all of your SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 W appliance customers to SonicWall SOHO 250, TZ350 & TZ350 W, respectively. There are co-marketing email templates available In SonicWall Overdrive to help you with your outreach to your SonicWall customers to encourage them to upgrade today. Why is SonicWall initiating End-of-Sale these appliances? Gen 6.5 SOHO 250 & TZ350 firewalls deliver superior features and performance and are an excellent solution for customers with small- and mid-sized networks across all vertical markets. What are the replacement appliances for SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 WIRELESS-AC? SOHO 250, TZ350 & TZ350 WIRELESS-AC are the replacements for SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 WIRELESS-AC. Can customers still order SOHO, TZ300 & TZ300 WIRELESS-AC? Check with your distributor on the availability of the units. If there is a strict requirement for TZ300 (and TZ350 cannot be used), please plan to use the TZ300P appliance. TZ300P works like a TZ300 appliance and provides additional PoE functionality. Can customers still order SOHO WIRELESS-N firewall? Yes. SOHO WIRELESS-N will continue to sell until the SonicWall inventory is depleted.
