With the NSA 2600, the DPI SSL connections were 1,000 for both the default and maximum, whereas the NSA 2650 has a default of 12,000 DPI SSL connections and a maximum of 13,500 connections. And where the NSA 2650 really shows improvement over its predecessor is the DPI SSL connections. From the NSA 2600 to the NSA 2650, maximum SPI connections increased from 500K of the 2600 to 1 million and maximum DPI connections went from 250K to 500K. The NSA 2650 is stated to deliver high-speed threat prevention over thousands of encrypted and unencrypted connections. The firewall also comes with room for expansion, consisting of an expansion module as well as a 16GB storage module with room for an optional power supply to add further redundancy. The NSA 2650 has ample connectivity with 22 ports: one console and 1GbE management port, four 2.5GbE SFP ports, four 2.5GbE ports, and twelve 1GbE ports. Like the full NSA line, the 2650 leverages SonicWall’s patented Reassembly-Free Deep Packet Inspection (RFDPI) engine and the new SonicOS 6.5 operating system. The SonicWall Network Security Appliance (NSA) 2650 (and the rest of the NSA line) provides threat prevention and security to mid-sized networks, branch offices, and distributed enterprises.
