FPR1140-ASA-K9 Description
FPR1140-ASA-K9 is a Cisco Firepower 1140 ASA firewall appliance in the Firepower 1000 Series for branch, internet-edge, or rack-mounted security deployments that need an ASA-based firewall platform. The 1RU appliance combines eight RJ-45 data ports, four fixed SFP ports, a dedicated 1000BASE-T management port, and a 200 GB SATA SSD, with Cisco-confirmed ASA performance including 6 Gbps stateful inspection firewall throughput, 3.5 Gbps multiprotocol firewall throughput, 400000 concurrent firewall connections, 1.2 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput, and support for up to 400 VPN peers.

Key Features
Cisco ordering guidance identifies FPR1140-ASA-K9 as the Firepower 1140 1RU appliance orderable for ASA software with optional security-context licensing.
The appliance provides eight RJ-45 data interfaces, four fixed SFP interfaces, one Gigabit management port, console access, internal SSD storage, and rack-mount hardware in the Firepower 1100 chassis family.
The 1140 ASA row increases stateful throughput, multiprotocol throughput, concurrent connections, new connections per second, IPsec VPN throughput, and maximum VPN peers compared with the 1120 ASA row.
Cisco ASA guidance lists Essentials as required and security-context licenses as additive, so the appliance PID should be paired with the correct Smart Account and license quantities.
The Firepower 1140 uses one fixed internal AC power supply and one fixed fan; neither is a field-replaceable module, and Cisco does not list redundant power for this chassis.
The fixed SFP ports on Firepower 1120, 1140, and 1150 appliances have Cisco-listed SFP options with Threat Defense 6.4 or ASA 9.15 as the first supported release baseline for those optics.
Application Scenarios
Specify FPR1140-ASA-K9 when the security standard remains Cisco ASA and the sizing worksheet calls for the 1140 ASA performance row rather than the 1120 model.
Use this SKU when the site needs built-in copper firewall interfaces plus Cisco-supported 1G SFP ports for upstream, transit, or service-provider links.
Keep FPR1140-ASA-K9 on the quote when operations, migration timing, and licensing are based on ASA software; use FPR1140-NGFW-K9 only when the approved design changes to Threat Defense subscriptions.

- In a FPR1140-ASA-K9 vs FPR1140-NGFW-K9 comparison, the Firepower 1140 hardware class matches, but the current SKU is the ASA order path while the NGFW PID is tied to Threat Defense software and subscriptions.
- The FPR1140-ASA-K9 difference from FPR1120-ASA-K9 is the official ASA capacity row: the 1140 raises firewall throughput, connection scale, new-connection rate, IPsec VPN throughput, and maximum VPN peers.
- For FPR1140-ASA-K9 vs FPR1150-ASA-K9, the comparison turns on ASA scale and fixed-port layout; the 1150 adds higher ASA values and replaces two of the 1G SFP ports with two 10G SFP+ ports.
- Buyers deciding which model to choose should keep ASA and Threat Defense PIDs separate first, then size among 1120, 1140, and 1150 by the Cisco performance and port rows.
Selection Guide
1. Keep the ASA software requirement explicit
Select FPR1140-ASA-K9 when the approved design calls for a Firepower 1140 appliance running Cisco ASA software, not Threat Defense subscriptions.
2. Use the 1140 row when the 1120 is undersized
Choose this SKU when the deployment needs 6 Gbps stateful inspection throughput, 3.5 Gbps multiprotocol throughput, 400000 concurrent firewall connections, or 400 maximum VPN peers.
3. Move to the NGFW PID only for a software-role change
Order FPR1140-NGFW-K9 only when the design, subscriptions, and management plan shift to Firewall Threat Defense on the 1140 appliance.
4. Check the 1150 when 10G fixed ports are required
Use FPR1150-ASA-K9 instead when the ASA design needs the 1150 performance row or the fixed-port plan requires SFP+ interfaces.

Review Area |
Required Decision |
Source-Based Risk |

|
Exact appliance PID |
Confirm FPR1140-ASA-K9 rather than FPR1140-NGFW-K9 |
Cisco separates ASA and Threat Defense orderable roles for the Firepower 1140 |
|
ASA license plan |
Include the ASA Essentials license and any required security-context license |
Cisco ASA guidance lists Essentials as required and context licenses as additive |
|
Security-context count |
Confirm whether the included contexts are enough for the deployment |
The Firepower 1140 ASA row lists 2 included contexts and a 5-context maximum |
|
Fixed-port media |
Match the four fixed SFP ports to Cisco-listed SFP part numbers and the ASA release baseline |
Unsupported optics can create installation and support risk |
|
Power and rack readiness |
Confirm the fixed internal AC power design, country power cord, and rack installation accessories |
The chassis has no redundant power supply option and uses fixed internal power and fan components |
