    New Hardware Introduced with PAN-OS 9.0

    Overview of new hardware introduced with PAN-OS® 9.0.
    New HardwareDescription
    PA-7000 100G Network Processing Card (NPC)
    The new 100G NPC provides more session capacity than in previous NPCs and improved performance. This new NPC provides the following main features:
    • App-ID™ throughput (AppMix) of 72Gbps
    • Threat throughput (AppMix) of 35Gbps
    • Session capacity up to 32 million
    • Four QSFP+/QSFP28 (40Gbps/100Gbps) ports
    • Eight SFP/SFP+ (1Gbps/10Gbps) ports
    • A new service LED that allows a remote administrator to illuminate the SVC LED on a specific front-slot card so an on-site technician can locate the card.
    PA-7000 Switch Management Cards (SMC-B)
    The new second-generation SMCs (PA-7050-SMC-B and PA-7080-SMC-B) provide the following main features:
    • Higher performance
    • Redundant solid-state drives (SSDs) for PAN-OS® and management log storage
    • MGT-A, MGT-B, HA1-A, and HA1-B support 1G SFP or 10G SFP+ transceivers
    • Micro USB management port
    PA-7000 Log Forwarding Card (LFC)
    The new Log Forwarding Card (LFC) implements the high speed log forwarding feature introduced in PAN-OS 8.0. The LFC includes the following main features:
    • High-speed log forwarding of all dataplane logs to an external log collector (For example, Panorama™ or syslog servers)
    • Supports up to 350,000 logs per second to Panorama
    • QSFP/QSFP+ ports (port 1 at 10Gbps and port 9 at 40Gbps)
    PA-7050 FANTRAY-L/R-A
    The new second-generation fan trays for the PA-7050 provide more cooling capacity than the first-generation fan trays and are required when you install the second-generation hardware in a PA-7050 firewall.
    PA-7080 EMI Filter
    This new EMI filter for existing PA-7080 firewalls reduces electromagnetic interference and is required when you install the second-generation hardware in a PA-7080 firewall. New chassis will have this new filter pre-installed.
