You may have heard some of the news circulating on product quality issues with Intel’s Atom C2000 series chips. Sophos uses Intel Atom C2000 processors in a small subset of XG and SG-series hardware, specifically the XG/SG 125 and XG/SG 135 models (all variants).  We are working closely with Intel to determine the extent to which Sophos products may or may not be affected by the Atom C2000 issue. If deployed XG/SG 125 or XG/SG 135 hardware fails to boot (the symptom of the reported Intel problem), please notify Sophos customer support.  To date, Sophos has seen low failure rates with hardware containing the Atom C2000 chip.  Rest assured that Sophos stands behind all our products and will correct hardware issues that may arise as a result of Intel’s Atom C2000 processor.

  • Update: We continue to work with Intel to determine the extent to which our use of the Atom processor C2000 product family could be affected by Intel’s recently-announced defect.  Once our investigation and analysis with Intel is complete, we will update this site with recommended actions (if any) to maintain the performance of your Sophos network security hardware.  In the meantime, we continue to see very low failure rates among our systems running the Intel Atom processor C2000 product family.  As always, if any system fails to boot (the symptom of Intel’s processor defect), please contact Sophos customer support immediately so that we may correct any issue.
