Back Panel Description
The following image shows the back panel of PA‐5200 Series firewalls and the table describes each
back‐panel component. The only difference between PA‐5200 Series firewall back panels is the power
supply type installed—they each can have two AC or two DC power supplies. The image shows a PA‐5220
firewall with AC power supplies. To view an image of the DC power supplies, see
