Fiber port on PA850

L0 Member

Hi All,

We are in the process of moving ISP providers and the hand is SMF/LC, our PA-850 is using copper for our current connection, can we configure a port on the PA to handle Fiber?

Hello,

Absolutely. The PA-850 has the SPF ports that you should be able to use a gbic with a LC connector.

Hope that helps.

Hello @ATanveer

 

as additional information, this link has detailed list what SFPs are compatible with each platform: https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/apps/pan/public/downloadResource?pagePath=/content/pan/en_US/resour...

 

PA-850 supports most of the SMF SFPs.

 

Kind Regards
