PA-5445
PA-5445: Fixed 2U form factor with up to 48 million sessions and 25 virtual systems in the base configuration.
Overview
The PA-5445 combines 8 RJ-45 1/2.5/5/10 GbE ports, 12 SFP/SFP+ 1/10 GbE ports, 4 SFP/SFP+/SFP 28 1/10/25 GbE ports and 4 QSFP+/QSFP 28 40/100 GbE ports. The manufacturer reports 76 Gb/s of Threat Prevention in an appmix test on PAN-OS 12.1. Selection must assess this result alongside concurrent sessions, the application profile and required inspection; it does not guarantee performance on every network. Fixed 2U form factor with up to 48 million sessions and 25 virtual systems in the base configuration. Transceivers, subscriptions and support are specified for the project. Security subscriptions and optional features are not assumed to be included with the appliance. Validate the licence, version and configuration.
