PA-50R Series Firewall Overview

Get an overview of the PA-50R Series Firewalls.
The PA-50R Series next-generation firewalls are made up of the following models:
  • PA-52R-5G
  • PA-54R-POE
  • PA-54R-POE-D-5G
  • PA-56R-POE-5G
The PA-50R Series firewalls are ruggedized appliances designed for industrial facilities, transportation infrastructure, and mobile deployments. These IP40-rated devices are engineered to operate in environments that exceed the specifications of standard networking equipment, providing reliable security in conditions characterized by temperature extremes, dust, moisture, and constant vibration. By extending security controls to these environments, the PA-50R Series firewalls protect critical industrial control systems and manufacturing networks that lack the climate-controlled infrastructure of a traditional data center.
The PA-50R Series firewalls offer varied port densities and integrated cellular capabilities, including 5G modem support with GPS functionality. These platforms also support flexible power configurations, accepting a wide range of DC voltage inputs suitable for both stationary and vehicle-based installations. To maintain reliability under thermal stress, the appliances feature dynamic power management that adjusts Power over Ethernet (PoE) allocation based on internal temperature sensors.
First Supported PAN-OS release: PAN-OS 12.2.2
