PA-5580
PA-5580: Traffic aggregation with 8 × 400 GbE interfaces and 300 Gb/s Threat Prevention appmix.
Overview
The PA-5580 combines 8 SFP 28 10/25 GbE ports, 12 QSFP 28 40/100 GbE ports and 8 QSFP-DD 100/400 GbE ports. The manufacturer reports 300 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. Traffic aggregation with 8 × 400 GbE interfaces and 300 Gb/s Threat Prevention appmix. 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.
