FPR2140-NGFW-K9 Description
FPR2140-NGFW-K9 is the Cisco Firepower 2140 NGFW firewall appliance in the Firepower 2100 Series, built for perimeter security, VPN termination, and inspection roles where a 1RU Threat Defense platform is required. It combines 12 10M/100M/1GBASE-T RJ-45 ports, four 1/10G SFP+ ports, one network module bay for expansion up to 24 Ethernet interfaces, dual included 400W AC power supplies, and a 200 GB SSD, with Cisco-published performance of 20 Gbps firewall throughput, 10.4 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 3 million concurrent AVC sessions, and 10,000 VPN peers.

Product Performance
Key Features
Cisco publishes FPR2140-NGFW-K9 as the Firepower 2140 NGFW appliance PID, keeping this buying path separate from FPR2140-ASA-K9 on the same hardware class.
The 2140 NGFW values sit above the lower Firepower 2100 Threat Defense rows for firewall throughput, FW + AVC + IPS throughput, IPS throughput, session count, and VPN scale.
Twelve copper data interfaces and four fixed 1/10G SFP+ interfaces are built in, while the module slot lets the order add Cisco-listed 1G, 10G, or fail-to-wire network modules.
Cisco lists the 2140 appliance with two 400W AC power supplies, so the power decision is mainly whether the site stays on dual AC or moves to the optional DC supply path.
Threat Defense includes the base software entitlement automatically, while IPS, Malware Defense, URL Filtering, and remote-access VPN needs must be licensed through the Smart Account process.
The platform can be managed locally with Firepower Device Manager or centrally with Firewall Management Center or Cisco Security Cloud Control, depending on the deployment model.
Application Scenarios
Use FPR2140-NGFW-K9 when the approved design calls for Threat Defense and the sizing file depends on the 2140 firewall, inspection, session, or VPN figures.
Place this SKU where the base firewall must provide fixed SFP+ handoffs and still reserve a Firepower 2100 network module bay for additional Cisco-supported interfaces.
Keep this NGFW PID when the chassis family matches an existing Firepower 2140 standard but the software, licensing, and management path must remain Threat Defense instead of ASA.

- In a FPR2140-NGFW-K9 vs FPR2140-ASA-K9 comparison, the appliance model, fixed ports, module bay, and dual-AC hardware profile match, but the current SKU follows the Threat Defense / NGFW order path while the ASA PID follows Cisco ASA software.
- The FPR2140-NGFW-K9 difference from FPR2130-NGFW-K9 is the 2140 Threat Defense row: 20 Gbps firewall throughput, 10.4 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 3 million AVC sessions, and the FPR2140 TMC license PID.
- For FPR2140-NGFW-K9 vs FPR2120-NGFW-K9, the comparison changes both capacity and interface planning because the 2140 adds fixed SFP+ ports, one network module bay, higher VPN values, and a dual-AC power profile.
- Buyers deciding which model to choose should confirm NGFW versus ASA first, then compare the SFP speed, module bay requirement, Threat Defense sizing row, TMC PID, and power supply design.
Selection Guide
1. Keep the software path on NGFW
Choose FPR2140-NGFW-K9 when the firewall design, license plan, and management tools are written for Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense rather than ASA.
2. Match the 2140 Threat Defense row
Use this SKU when the sizing worksheet requires 20 Gbps firewall throughput, 10.4 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 3 million AVC sessions, or 10000 VPN peers.
3. Avoid a quiet interface downgrade
Move to FPR2120-NGFW-K9 only after the project accepts 1G SFP fixed fiber ports, no network module bay, lower inspection values, and the 2120 TMC license family.
4. Close licensing and power details together
Confirm the Smart Account, IPS, Malware Defense, URL, remote-access VPN needs, SFP+ optics, selected network module, AC or DC supplies, and regional cords before the commercial record is finalized.
Ordering Checklist
|
Review Area |
Required Decision |
Source-Based Risk |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact appliance PID |
Confirm FPR2140-NGFW-K9 instead of FPR2140-ASA-K9 |
Cisco lists separate NGFW and ASA order identities for the same Firepower 2140 hardware model |
|
Threat Defense deployment model |
Decide whether the appliance will be managed by Firepower Device Manager, Firewall Management Center, or Cisco Security Cloud Control |
The local or centralized management path affects license registration and day-two operations |
|
Smart Account licensing |
Attach required IPS, Malware Defense, URL Filtering, or remote-access VPN entitlements to the Smart Account process |
The base license is included automatically, but optional services are separate |
|
TMC term |
Select L-FPR2140T-TMC-1Y, L-FPR2140T-TMC-3Y, or L-FPR2140T-TMC-5Y when the combined subscription is required |
A 2130 or 2120 TMC PID does not match the 2140 appliance row |
|
Fixed SFP+ optics |
Match the four fixed 1/10G SFP+ ports to Cisco-supported transceivers or cables |
The 2140 fiber handoff differs from the 1G SFP ports used on 2110 and 2120 appliances |
|
Network module |
Choose the required Cisco 1G SFP, 10G SFP+, or fail-to-wire network module if the fixed ports are not enough |
The module is a separate interface planning item even though the 2140 chassis has one bay |
|
Power design |
Keep the included dual AC profile or order the supported DC power path with matching regional cords |
Cisco does not support mixing AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis |
