PA-545-POE
PA-545-POE: PoE power on 4 multigigabit ports for edge devices.
Overview
The PA-545-POE combines 6 RJ-45 1 GbE ports, 2 RJ-45 1 GbE bypass ports, 4 RJ-45 1/2.5 GbE ports with PoE and 4 SFP 1 GbE ports. The manufacturer reports 3 Gb/s of Threat Prevention in an appmix test on PAN-OS 12.2. Selection must assess this result alongside concurrent sessions, the application profile and required inspection; it does not guarantee performance on every network. PoE power on 4 multigigabit ports for edge devices. 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.
