Consistent security from branch to industrial edge
The PA-400 Series spans 13 models across desktop and ruggedized form factors, all running the same PAN-OS with the same Precision AI engine as data center firewalls. Throughput ranges from 1.4 Gbps to 4.6 Gbps with options for PoE, 5G connectivity, and IP65 outdoor protection.
Ship it, plug it in, done
Zero-touch provisioning means no IT staff needed at remote sites. Ship to any location and configure centrally through Strata Cloud Manager or Panorama.
Silent, fanless, desktop-ready
No moving parts, no fan noise. Desktop models operate silently in any office, retail counter, or equipment closet without dedicated cooling.
One policy engine, every location
The same PAN-OS software that runs in data center firewalls runs on every PA-400. Consistent security policy from headquarters to the smallest branch.
Desktop form factor
PA-400 Series desktop models
Fanless, silent ML-powered firewalls for branch offices, retail locations, and distributed enterprise sites. Throughput ranges from 1.4 Gbps to 4.6 Gbps.
Ruggedized form factor
PA-400R Series rugged models
IP40 and IP65-rated firewalls built for industrial control environments, utility substations, and outdoor deployments. IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 certified for extreme temperature, vibration, and EMI.
Which PA-400 model fits your deployment
PA-400 Series models span a range of throughput tiers and form factors. Use this guide to identify the right model for each location type.
Built-in capabilities across every PA-400 model
Automatic IoT device identification
Identify POS terminals, IP cameras, printers, and building management systems without agents. Apply least-privilege policies automatically based on device type, vendor, and firmware.
ML-powered threat prevention
Embedded machine learning stops zero-day file-based attacks and phishing attempts inline, without relying on cloud lookback or signature updates.
SD-WAN without additional hardware
Enable SD-WAN natively on the firewall. Measure path quality and route traffic across MPLS, broadband, and 5G links based on application SLA requirements.
Encrypted traffic inspection at scale
Inspect TLS 1.3 and HTTP/2 traffic with hardware-accelerated decryption. Apply full threat prevention to encrypted sessions without significant performance degradation.
Security packages for every protection level
Pair any PA-400 Series firewall with a security subscription package. Choose from basic network connectivity, advanced threat prevention, or full Zero Trust protection.
The Connector
Firewall and SD-WAN for basic site connectivity.
The Protector
Threat Prevention and WildFire for active defense.
The Zero Trust
DNS, URL, IoT, DLP, and SaaS security included.
