5G Antenna Connector (TX3/RX3)
|
SMA antenna connector for connecting an external 5G antenna to the
firewall.
The 5G antennas also support GPS and
GLONASS (GNSS) for location services. No separate GPS antenna is
required. |
|
2
|
RJ-45 Ports
|
Eight copper RJ-45 10Mbps/100Mbps/1Gbps ports for network
traffic.
Port 1 is a Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP)
port. The ZTP port can be used to automatically provision the
firewall. ZTP is also supported on Cellular 1/1;
whichever interface establishes connectivity first is used for
bootstrapping. Ports 3 and 4 are fail-open ports. They can be configured to
provide a pass-through connection despite power or operating
system failure. |

LED Status Indicators
|
Ten LEDs that indicate the status of the firewall hardware components
and four LEDs that indicate cellular connection strength. (see PA-500 Series Firewall LED Definitions).
|
|

|
SFP Ports
|
Two SFP 1Gbps ports for network traffic.

Console port
(RJ-45)
|
Use this port to connect a management computer to the firewall using
a RJ-45 to USB cable and terminal emulation software.
The console connection provides access to firewall boot messages, the
Maintenance Recovery Tool (MRT), and the command line interface
(CLI).
Use the following settings to configure your terminal emulation
software to connect to the console port:

|
Management Port
|
Use this RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps port to access the management web
interface and perform administrative tasks. The firewall also uses
this port for management services, such as retrieving licenses and
updating threat and application signatures.
|
|
7
|
USB Port
|
One USB-C port used for debugging and administration only. Use it to
bootstrap the firewall or perform self-service enhanced factory
reset (EFR).
Bootstrapping enables you to provision the firewall with a specific
PAN-OS configuration and then license it and make it operational on
your network.
EFR provides remediation of a compromised or potentially compromised
firewall to initiate a complete cleanup of the device.

|
Reset Button
|
A pin press reset button that can be used to gracefully shut down the
firewall.
