Key Features

Everything you need in one device

🏆

Industry's Highest NGFW Performance

The PA-7080 delivers 590 Gbps of ML-Powered NGFW throughput — more than any other single NGFW from any vendor — enabling security at hyperscale cloud and service provider capacities.

🔧

Fully Modular Architecture

Both PA-7050 (9U) and PA-7080 (19U) support multiple DPC (Data Processing Card) and NPC (Networking Processing Card) combinations — scaling from hundreds of 10G to multiple 100G interfaces.

🔄

Redundant Supervisors

Dual redundant supervisor modules provide hitless failover within the chassis — maintaining forwarding even during supervisor failure, with no session disruption.

🤖

ML-Powered at Tbps Scale

Inline ML threat prevention runs at the full rated throughput — delivering zero-day threat prevention without requiring cloud lookups and without performance compromise.

🌐

Multi-Virtual System (vSYS)

Supports up to 125 (PA-7050) or 225 (PA-7080) virtual systems — enabling multi-tenant deployments for service providers or large enterprises with separate security domains.

♻️

Enterprise-Class RAS

Hot-swappable line cards, fans, and power supplies; redundant supervisors; and N+1 power — providing carrier-class reliability and availability for mission-critical environments.

About the Palo Alto PA-7050 / PA-7080

The Palo Alto PA-7000 Series comprises two chassis-based next-generation firewalls: the PA-7050 (9U, 343 Gbps) and the PA-7080 (19U, 590 Gbps). These are the highest-performance NGFW systems in Palo Alto's lineup — and among the highest-performing NGFWs available from any security vendor — designed for service providers, hyperscale cloud providers, and the largest enterprise data centres.

Both PA-7000 models use a modular line card architecture, allowing organisations to combine GE, 10G, 40G, and 100G interfaces based on their specific topology requirements. Up to 120 × GE + 80 × 10G SFP+ + 40 × 100G QSFP ports are supported on the PA-7080 across its card slots. Redundant supervisor modules provide hitless failover within the chassis.

At the performance tier of the PA-7000 Series, the threat prevention capabilities are equally impressive: 184 Gbps (PA-7050) and 305 Gbps (PA-7080) of Threat Prevention throughput — meaning full IPS, URL filtering, anti-malware, and WildFire analysis can run simultaneously across multi-100G internet edges without any performance degradation.

The PA-7000 Series supports up to 125 (PA-7050) or 225 (PA-7080) virtual systems, making them ideal for service providers or large enterprises requiring separate security domains within a single chassis — each with independent policies, routing, and management.
