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.
