Unmatched Protection for Demanding Data Environments

High-performance networks face evolving cyber threats daily—and speed alone isn’t enough. The Palo Alto Networks PA-5445 addresses the need for ultra-fast, scalable, and intelligent firewall protection in modern enterprise, data center, and service provider environments. Delivering 90 Gbps of throughput and supporting up to 48 million concurrent sessions, it provides the deep security visibility and control today's high-throughput infrastructures demand.

Key Benefits & Features

Industry-Leading Performance for Massive Workloads

With 90 Gbps firewall throughput and 76 Gbps threat prevention performance, the PA-5445 delivers reliable protection even under full load. Its architecture supports up to 449,000 new sessions per second—ideal for enterprises scaling into multi-cloud, 5G, or real-time data environments.

AI-Powered Threat Prevention and Zero-Day Security

Equipped with inline ML and cloud-based AI, the PA-5445 identifies unknown threats and prevents zero-day attacks before they reach your network. Advanced Threat Prevention, WildFire®, and DNS Security are built-in for multi-layered defense.

High-Density Interface Options

This firewall features 8x RJ-45, 12x SFP+, 4x SFP28, and 4x QSFP28 ports, supporting up to 100G with breakout mode for QSFPs. Built-in high availability ports (HA1 and HSCI) allow for active/active or active/passive redundancy without sacrificing speed.

True Zero Trust with Dynamic User & App Controls

Using PAN-OS and App-ID™, the PA-5445 applies policies not just on ports or IPs, but on actual users and applications. It adapts automatically with dynamic user groups, helping you enforce Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) principles at scale.

Designed for Uptime and Resilience

Built into a 2U chassis with redundant AC/DC power supplies, 480 GB SSD storage, and a TPM module for secure boot, the PA-5445 is engineered for reliability. Its mean time between failure (MTBF) is 22 years, making it a long-term cornerstone of any secure infrastructure.
