FPR2140-ASA-K9 Description
FPR2140-ASA-K9 is a Cisco Firepower 2140 ASA firewall appliance for Firepower 2100 Series deployments that run Cisco ASA software at branch, internet-edge, or data-center security boundaries. Cisco identifies this PID as a 1RU Firepower 2140 platform with 12 fixed RJ-45 data ports, 4 fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports, one network module bay for additional Ethernet interfaces, dual included 400W AC power supplies, and a 200 GB SSD installed. In ASA use, it supports the Firepower 2140 ASA performance profile, including 20 Gbps stateful inspection firewall throughput, 10 Gbps multiprotocol firewall throughput, 3 million concurrent firewall connections, and VPN and security-context features managed through the ASA software stack.

Product Performance
Key Features
Cisco assigns FPR2140-ASA-K9 to the Firepower 2140 ASA appliance, which keeps asset records and software planning separate from the FPR2140-NGFW-K9 Threat Defense order path.
The 2140 ASA table row is the highest Firepower 2100 ASA entry for stateful throughput, multiprotocol throughput, firewall connections, IPsec VPN throughput, VPN peers, and context maximum.
Twelve RJ-45 ports and four fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports are built into the appliance, while the separate module bay covers additional Cisco-listed 1G, 10G, or fail-to-wire module options.
Cisco lists dual 400W AC supplies for the 2140, so buyers only move to DC when the site power standard calls for the optional 350W DC supply path.
The fan tray and 200 GB SSD belong to the Firepower 2130 and 2140 service-part set, which matters when spare components are added beside the firewall chassis.
Essentials, Security Contexts, and Strong Encryption are handled through Smart Licensing, and Cisco notes that Secure Client ordering is separate from enabling ASA feature licenses.
Application Scenarios
Use FPR2140-ASA-K9 when an ASA-based edge design needs the 2140 entries for throughput, concurrent connections, context ceiling, or VPN-peer scale.
Place this SKU where the base appliance must provide RJ-45 access plus fixed SFP+ links, with the extra interface decision handled through a Firepower 2100 network module.
Keep the 2140 line when procurement expects dual AC supplies from the appliance order and the operations team is standardizing on Cisco ASA rather than Threat Defense.

- In a FPR2140-ASA-K9 vs FPR2140-NGFW-K9 comparison, the model and one-bay hardware identity match, but the current SKU is the ASA order path while the NGFW PID is tied to Firewall Threat Defense.
- The FPR2140-ASA-K9 difference from FPR2130-ASA-K9 is the ASA capacity and default power profile: the 2140 raises throughput, connections, VPN scale, context maximum, and ships with dual 400W AC supplies.
- For FPR2140-ASA-K9 vs FPR2120-ASA-K9, the comparison changes the interface plan as well as scale because the 2140 adds fixed SFP+ ports, one network module bay, up to 24 Ethernet interfaces, and higher ASA values.
- Buyers deciding which model to choose should separate ASA from NGFW first, then compare the Firepower 2100 rows by fixed SFP speed, module bay requirement, power design, and ASA sizing values.
Selection Guide
1. Anchor the order on ASA
Choose FPR2140-ASA-K9 when the migration plan, support record, and day-two management process are written for Cisco ASA on Firepower 2140 hardware.
2. Match the 2140 capacity row
Stay with this SKU when the sizing worksheet needs 20 Gbps stateful throughput, 10 Gbps multiprotocol throughput, 3 million connections, or 10000 VPN peers.
3. Check the 2130 downgrade carefully
Use FPR2130-ASA-K9 only after the project accepts lower ASA values and the different included AC supply profile.
4. Bundle module and entitlement checks
Review SFP+ media, network module support, ASA compatibility, Smart Account ownership, Essentials, context add-ons, strong encryption needs, and power cords before commercial approval.
Ordering Checklist

Order Gate |
What to Verify |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Image-specific SKU |
Use FPR2140-ASA-K9 for ASA and not the FPR2140-NGFW-K9 PID |
The same 2140 hardware class has separate order identities for ASA and Threat Defense |
|
Smart Account inventory |
Include L-FPR2100-ASA= plus any context or encryption license required by the deployment |
Licensed ASA functions depend on entitlements being available to the registered account |
|
Context target |
Compare the included 2 contexts with the design target and the 40-context maximum |
The 2140 context ceiling is different from the 2130 and 2120 ASA entries |
|
Port and module bill |
Pair the fixed SFP+ ports with the selected FPR2K network module and supported optic or cable choices |
The module decision changes total interfaces and supported media in the firewall build |
|
ASA module release |
Check FPR2K-NM-8X10G, FPR2K-NM-8X1G, and fail-to-wire module support against the ASA compatibility table |
Cisco lists different ASA baselines and notes that fail-to-wire hardware bypass is not supported by ASA |
|
Input power plan |
Order either the dual AC profile or a DC profile with matching regional cords |
Cisco does not allow AC and DC supplies to be mixed in the chassis |
