Hillstone’s Future-Ready
NGFW Platform
Hillstone A-Series
Hillstone Proprietary ASIC Security Chip Drives Evolution of Next-Generation Firewall
Superior Hardware-Accelerated Performance
By offloading intensive traffic processing from the primary CPU, the dedicated ASIC eliminates system strain and maximizes throughput. Compared to traditional CPU-based firewalls, it delivers a 200% increase in firewall throughput, a 150% boost in new sessions, and a 100% surge in IPsec VPN performance.
Ultra-Low Latency for Real-Time Applications
Engineered with Hillstone’s cutting-edge ASIC chips, the select NGFW platforms achieves an ultra-low average network latency of ≤ 4.8μs. This extreme responsiveness ensures an ultra-smooth experience, perfectly suited for latency-critical environments like financial trading, autonomous driving, telemedicine, etc.
High-density Interfaces in Compact Design
By supporting high-density interfaces and modular expansion ports up to 100GE in 1RU form factor, the architecture seamlessly accommodates massive bandwidth scaling and future-proof business growth for organizations of any size.
Next-Gen Eco-Efficiency and Sustainable TCO
The specialized ASIC architecture delivers a revolutionary energy-efficiency ratio 20 times higher than conventional CPUs. By reducing equipment power consumption by 60% compared to traditional firewalls, this lineup helps enterprises slash operational costs and meet stringent corporate sustainability goals.
Carrier-Grade Reliability under Extreme Workloads
By offloading structural traffic forwarding workloads onto specialized hardware, the platform drastically reduces CPU strain and eliminates system bottlenecks. Integrated multi-threading further ensures resilient parallel processing, guaranteeing carrier-grade reliability and seamless operations in unpredictable network conditions.
