SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 Desktop Firewall, Secure Upgrade Appliance Only
Overview
The SonicWall TZ Series (Gen 8) is an SD-Branch platform for small and mid-sized organizations and distributed enterprises in a desktop form factor. It runs SonicOS 8 with Secure SD-WAN, zero-touch deployment and centralized management through Network Security Manager (NSM), and it integrates SonicWall Switch and SonicWave access points. The 03-SSC-7470 is the TZ580 Secure Upgrade appliance. It carries no attached subscription and is offered only to SonicProtect customers upgrading their hardware. Support and optional security subscriptions are otherwise sold separately.
Technical Details
The SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 is a desktop next-generation firewall running SonicOS 8, with 8×1GbE RJ45, 2×10/5/2.5/1GbE SFP+. Threat Prevention throughput is 2.2 Gbps with Gateway AV, Anti-Spyware, IPS and Application Control enabled (4.5 Gbps firewall inspection), and it holds up to 1,400,000 concurrent SPI connections. This part number is Appliance Only: SonicWall support and optional security subscriptions are sold separately. It is used at a small office, branch or retail site for internet-edge protection, SD-WAN and site-to-site VPN.
Best For
The TZ580 suits a small office, branch or retail site that needs 2.2 Gbps of Threat Prevention throughput and up to 1,400,000 concurrent SPI connections. It suits existing SonicProtect subscribers upgrading their hardware. Size against the Threat Prevention figure, not the firewall inspection throughput.
Not suitable if:
- your inspected traffic exceeds 2.2 Gbps, the published Threat Prevention throughput
- you need security services included in the part number, since this one is Appliance Only
- you need Power over Ethernet from the firewall, since this model has none
- you do not hold an active SonicProtect subscription, since this upgrade appliance is restricted to SonicProtect customers
- you require native rack mounting without an additional accessory, since this is a desktop appliance and requires a separate SonicWall rack mount kit

FAQ
Does the SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 include a security subscription?
No. The 03-SSC-7470 is Appliance Only: firewall, VPN and routing run on SonicOS 8, while SonicWall support and security subscriptions such as the Advanced Protection Security Suite are sold separately.
How much traffic can the SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 handle?
SonicWall publishes no user count, so size the TZ580 on its figures. Firewall inspection throughput is 4.5 Gbps, but Threat Prevention throughput is 2.2 Gbps with Gateway AV, Anti-Spyware, IPS and Application Control enabled; size against that. It holds 1,400,000 concurrent SPI connections and 500,000 DPI connections, and opens 20,000 new connections per second.
What interfaces does the SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 have?
The TZ580 provides 8×1GbE RJ45, 2×10/5/2.5/1GbE SFP+. Management and console connectivity is 1×Console (Micro-USB), 1×USB (type-C). Transceivers for any SFP-type ports are sold separately.
Does the SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 support high availability?
The TZ580 supports Active/Standby high availability with stateful synchronization.
What is the difference between the TZ580 and the TZ680?
Both run the same SonicOS 8. The TZ580 is rated at 4.5 Gbps firewall inspection throughput, 2.2 Gbps Threat Prevention throughput and 1,400,000 concurrent SPI connections; the TZ680 is rated at 5 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps and 1,600,000. Check both interface sets in the specification tables.
Who can buy the 03-SSC-7470?
Only SonicProtect customers. The 03-SSC-7470 is upgrade hardware with no attached subscription, offered to existing SonicProtect subscribers only. Network Devices Inc. confirms eligibility before ordering.
Does the 03-SSC-7470 include SonicWall support?
Support is not included with an Appliance Only part number. SonicWall support and optional security subscriptions are sold separately, and Network Devices Inc. confirms the correct support option before the order is placed.
How is the SonicWall TZ580 03-SSC-7470 managed?
The TZ580 is managed through Network Security Manager (NSM) 3.0 and above, and locally through the SonicOS web interface and CLI. Firewall policy, SD-WAN, VPN and high availability are configured on the appliance; the security services on it are licensed separately unless this part number bundles them. SonicWall includes centralized management and alerting as part of support, so NSM management needs an active support contract or security bundle.
