12 Gbps 1U Rack-Mount Enterprise Firewall with 16-Port 10GbE, 1,000 VPN Tunnels, ZTNA, and Cloud Sandboxing for Mid-Size and Large Enterprise Networks
The SonicWall NSa 2800 (03-SSC-1841) is a Gen 8 rack-mountable enterprise firewall that delivers 12 Gbps firewall throughput, 7.17 Gbps IPS throughput, and 5.63 Gbps VPN throughput through 16 GbE ports and three SFP+ expansion slots with 10GBase-X support. Running SonicOS 8 with Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection, Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI), Capture Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) cloud sandboxing, and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), the NSa 2800 provides the multi-gigabit threat prevention throughput that mid-size and large enterprise networks require without becoming a bottleneck in high-traffic environments.
The NSa series steps up from the desktop TZ lineup with 1U rack-mount construction, dual power supplies for hardware redundancy, expandable storage for local logging, and an expanded security stack that adds DNS Security, Botnet Filtering, Cloud Application Security, and Cloud Secure Edge Connector integration for Zero Trust application access. Supporting 1,000 concurrent VPN tunnels and 50,000 new connections per second, the NSa 2800 handles the connection density of enterprise headquarters, campus networks, and data center perimeters where thousands of users and devices generate traffic simultaneously.
Where the SonicWall NSa 2800 Fits
- Enterprise headquarters and campus networks where the 12 Gbps firewall throughput handles thousands of concurrent users running cloud applications, video conferencing, and SaaS platforms with full deep packet inspection active, the 16-port 10GbE design connects multiple network segments and high-speed uplinks, and dual power supplies provide hardware-level redundancy
- Data center and server farm perimeters where the 7.17 Gbps IPS and 50,000 new connections per second handle east-west and north-south traffic volumes, the three SFP+ slots provide 10G fiber connectivity to core switches and upstream routers, and Capture ATP cloud sandboxing analyzes suspicious files before they reach production servers
- Multi-site enterprise deployments with Zero Trust requirements where the 1,000 VPN tunnel capacity connects headquarters to dozens of branch locations and remote workers, ZTNA and Cloud Secure Edge integration enforce application-level access policies, and centralized NSM management provides unified visibility across all SonicWall appliances in the organization
