Overview

NSa 4800

The first rung with storage expandable to 1 TB and redundant fans: 20 Gbps of firewall inspection for a campus edge.

Where the NSa 4800 fits

The first rung with storage expandable to 1 TB and redundant fans: 20 Gbps of firewall inspection for a campus edge. It suits a campus edge where storage expansion and redundant fans matter as much as the 13 Gbps of threat prevention. Every Gen 8 NSa runs the same SonicOS 8 build and the same security services, so the choice between them is capacity rather than capability.
