Hardened Security for Harsh Environments
Industrial environments demand more than just performance—they require resilience. The Palo Alto Networks PA-450R is purpose-built to secure ICS/SCADA networks, substations, and field operations exposed to extreme conditions. With fanless design, ruggedized construction, and the power of PAN-OS, the PA-450R delivers dependable, AI-driven protection wherever you need it most.
Key Benefits & Features
High-Performance ML-Powered Firewall
The PA-450R delivers 3.2 Gbps of App-ID-enabled firewall throughput and 1.7 Gbps of threat prevention, ensuring consistent performance even with full security subscriptions enabled. Its Single-Pass Architecture processes traffic efficiently, scanning for threats and applying policies in real-time with minimal latency.
Ruggedized for Industrial-Grade Deployment
Engineered for the harshest environments, the PA-450R operates in temperatures from -40°C to 70°C, complies with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards, and features an IP40-rated enclosure. The fanless, solid-state design eliminates moving parts and reduces failure points, making it ideal for vibration-prone or high-dust areas.
Flexible Connectivity and Fail-Open Reliability
With six RJ-45 ports and two SFP/RJ-45 combo ports, including two fail-open ports, the PA-450R ensures traffic continuity in case of power loss. It's also DC-powered with redundant power support, making it perfect for mission-critical infrastructure.
Advanced Visibility and Control
The device runs PAN-OS 11.1+, offering App-ID, User-ID, SSL decryption, Zero Trust support, and IoT device visibility. Centralized management via Panorama® or Strata™ Cloud Manager enables unified policy enforcement across distributed environments.
