You can
configure Power
over Ethernet (PoE) on the interfaces of supported firewalls to transfer
electrical power from the firewall to a connected powered device (PD). This allows you
to meet the power needs of PDs while continuing to transmit data to them using a single
Ethernet cable per physical PoE port.
This table lists each Palo Alto Networks® Next-Generation firewall with PoE ports as well
as the maximum power they offer, the total allowed power budget, and the interface types
they support.

Select to display the current status of each port. PoE ports are denoted with a
lightning bolt icon. Hovering the mouse over a PoE port icon displays PoE status,
allocated power, used power, and other configured details.
Similarly, select to display a donut chart that confirms the available power on the
firewall and helps you decide which PDs to connect to the PoE ports.
