FPR1120-ASA-K9 Description
FPR1120-ASA-K9 is a Cisco Firepower 1120 ASA firewall appliance in the Firepower 1000 Series for branch, internet-edge, or security-services deployments that standardize on Cisco ASA software. The 1RU rack-mount appliance combines eight fixed RJ-45 data ports, four fixed SFP ports, a dedicated 1000BASE-T management port, one 200 GB SATA SSD, and a single fixed internal AC power supply, with Cisco-listed ASA performance values including 4.5 Gbps stateful inspection firewall throughput, 2.5 Gbps multiprotocol firewall throughput, 200000 concurrent firewall connections, 1 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput, and ASA Essentials licensing for the Firepower 1100 ASA order path.

Key Features
Cisco identifies FPR1120-ASA-K9 as the Firepower 1120 orderable PID that runs ASA software, so the quote should not be substituted with the Threat Defense PID unless the approved design changes.
The Firepower 1120 hardware provides eight RJ-45 data interfaces and four fixed SFP interfaces in a 1RU rack-mount appliance, giving buyers a compact copper and fiber edge firewall option.
The 1120 ASA performance row sits above the desktop 1010 class and below the 1140 ASA row, which helps model selection stay aligned with throughput, connection, and VPN-peer targets.
Cisco licensing references show two included security contexts for the Firepower 1120 ASA path and a five-context maximum, so context requirements should be checked before quote release.
The 1120 uses one fixed internal AC power supply and one fixed fan, so redundancy planning must be handled at the deployment design level instead of through hot-swappable power modules.
The fixed SFP ports support Cisco-listed 1G transceiver part numbers such as GLC-TE, GLC-SX-MMD, GLC-LH-SMD, GLC-EX-SMD, and GLC-ZX-SMD with the documented software baseline.
Application Scenarios
Specify FPR1120-ASA-K9 for an edge firewall refresh where the operations standard remains Cisco ASA and the design calls for the 1RU Firepower 1120 hardware row instead of a desktop 1010 appliance.
Place this SKU in the BOM when inside, outside, or transit links require both built-in RJ-45 ports and Cisco-listed 1G SFP optics on the same fixed-interface firewall.
Keep the ASA order path when change records and support ownership still reference Cisco ASA; shift to FPR1120-NGFW-K9 only for a planned Threat Defense rollout.

- In a FPR1120-ASA-K9 vs FPR1120-NGFW-K9 comparison, the appliance model and fixed interface layout match, but the current SKU is the ASA software order path while FPR1120-NGFW-K9 is the Threat Defense / NGFW order path.
- The FPR1120-ASA-K9 difference from FPR1140-ASA-K9 is the ASA sizing row: the 1140 increases stateful firewall throughput, multiprotocol throughput, firewall connection scale, and maximum VPN peers.
- For buyers comparing FPR1120-ASA-K9 vs FPR1120-NGFW-K9 vs FPR1140-ASA-K9, which model to choose should follow the required software role first and the Cisco performance row second.
Selection Guide
1. Lock the ASA software role first
Choose FPR1120-ASA-K9 when the approved deployment requires Cisco ASA software on a Firepower 1120 appliance rather than Threat Defense subscriptions.
2. Use the 1120 ASA row for sizing
Select this SKU when 4.5 Gbps stateful inspection throughput, 2.5 Gbps multiprotocol firewall throughput, and 200000 concurrent firewall connections match the branch or edge firewall design.
3. Compare the NGFW PID only for software changes
Move to FPR1120-NGFW-K9 only when the BOM is changing to the Threat Defense order path, because the key difference is software role rather than the 1120 fixed-port hardware.
4. Check the 1140 when ASA capacity is short
Use FPR1140-ASA-K9 instead when the sizing file needs the higher ASA throughput, connection, or VPN-peer values listed for the Firepower 1140 model.
Ordering Checklist

Review Area |
Required Decision |
Source-Based Risk |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact orderable PID |
Confirm FPR1120-ASA-K9 rather than FPR1120-NGFW-K9 |
Cisco lists separate 1120 orderable roles for ASA software and Threat Defense / NGFW software |
|
ASA software plan |
Confirm the ASA image and compatible management plan |
The SKU is ordered for ASA software, so operational tools and upgrade plans must match ASA |
|
ASA Essentials license |
Include the required ASA Essentials license for the Firepower 1000 Series |
Cisco ASA getting-started guidance lists ASA Essentials as required |
|
Security contexts |
Decide whether included contexts are enough or whether an add-on context license is needed |
Cisco lists two included contexts and a five-context maximum for Firepower 1120 ASA |
|
Fixed-port media |
Match RJ-45 and SFP cabling to the firewall design |
Cisco lists specific 1G SFP part numbers and software baselines for the fixed SFP ports |
|
Power and mounting |
Confirm single fixed AC power, country power cord, rack brackets, and cable management |
The 1120 power supply and fan are fixed rather than field-replaceable modules |
