Cisco FPR4K-NM-4X40G-RF Firepower 4-Port 40G QSFP+ Network Module

Brand:

The Cisco FPR4K-NM-4X40G-RF is the remanufactured version of Cisco's FPR4K-NM-4X40G 4-port 40-Gbps QSFP+ network module for the Firepower 4100 Series security appliance platform. It adds four high-bandwidth 40GbE interfaces in a single-wide module, providing a cost-conscious way to expand compatible Firepower deployments. Cisco documents the module as hot-swappable and NEBS-compliant, with support beginning with FTD 6.4 and ASA 9.14.

OVERVIEW

  • The FPR4K-NM-4X40G-RF is a remanufactured 4-port 40Gbps QSFP+ network module for compatible Cisco Firepower 4100 Series appliances. Compatibility: Firepower 4100 Series chassis with supported software/firmware. Model comparison: This module provides four 40G ports; Cisco also offers 10G, 25G and higher-speed network-module options for different port-density needs. Verify the chassis and software matrix before deployment.

USE CASES

  • 40GbE firewall uplinks: Connect compatible Firepower appliances to high-speed network infrastructure.
  • Data center security: Add high-bandwidth interfaces for security traffic between data-center network segments.
  • Core network connectivity: Provide 40G interfaces for high-throughput security appliance deployments.
  • East-west traffic inspection: Support high-bandwidth connections between internal network zones.
  • Security infrastructure expansion: Increase available 40G connectivity without replacing the complete chassis.
  • Network segmentation: Connect separate high-speed security zones through the Firepower platform.
  • Enterprise data center upgrades: Extend the useful connectivity capacity of an existing Firepower 4100 deployment.
  • Remanufactured hardware refresh: Reduce acquisition cost when replacing or expanding compatible legacy infrastructure.
  • High-throughput security monitoring: Provide 40G interfaces for supported inspection and monitoring architectures.

KEY FEATURES

  • Four 40Gbps ports: Provides four high-bandwidth Ethernet interfaces for demanding security and data-center connectivity.
  • QSFP+ interfaces: Uses the established QSFP+ form factor for compatible 40G optical connectivity.
  • Single-wide network module: Adds substantial interface capacity without consuming multiple module widths.
  • Hot-swappable design: Cisco documents the module as hot-swappable, helping reduce maintenance disruption when supported replacement procedures are followed. 
  • High-density connectivity: Four 40G interfaces deliver up to 160Gbps of aggregate nominal port bandwidth, subject to platform and traffic conditions.
  • Breakout capability: Cisco documentation indicates the 40G ports can operate as 4 × 10G using supported breakout cables, increasing interface flexibility. 
  • Network activity LEDs: Front-panel indicators provide visual link and activity status for operational troubleshooting. 
  • NEBS compliant: Supports deployments requiring applicable NEBS compliance. 
  • Remanufactured Cisco hardware: Provides a potentially lower-cost route for extending compatible Firepower infrastructure.
  • Firepower platform integration: Designed specifically for the Cisco Firepower 4100 Series rather than serving as a generic Ethernet adapter.
  • Software compatibility: Cisco documents initial support with FTD 6.4 and ASA 9.14, subject to the applicable compatibility matrix.
