FPR4215-ASA-K9 Description
FPR4215-ASA-K9 is the Cisco Secure Firewall 4215 ASA chassis for Secure Firewall 4200 Series deployments that need an ASA firewall at the branch, campus edge, or data center edge. This 1RU firewall uses the 4215 ASA order identity, provides eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 fiber data ports plus two 1/10/25G SFP28 management ports, supports two hot-swappable network module slots, and is sized by Cisco at 90 Gbps stateful inspection firewall throughput, 65 Gbps multiprotocol firewall throughput, 40 million concurrent firewall connections, and 50 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput.

Product Performance
Key Features
Cisco lists FPR4215-ASA-K9 as the Secure Firewall 4215 ASA chassis, so the quote should not be substituted with the NGFW or NGIPS 4215 PID unless the software role changes.
The 4215 is part of the Cisco Secure Firewall 4200 Series, with 1RU rack format, front-to-rear airflow, 256 GB system memory, and two NVMe SSD slots shipped with two 1.8 TB SSDs.
The chassis provides eight SFP28 fixed fiber ports named Ethernet 1/1 through 1/8, so the optic plan must match the supported fixed-port transceiver list.
Two hot-swappable network module slots support Cisco-listed 1/10G, 1/10/25G, 40G, 100G, 200G, 400G, and hardware-bypass module options, subject to software and transceiver support.
Cisco ASA compatibility tables list Secure Firewall 4215 support across ASA release families, and newer ASA versions require the matching ASDM version or a later compatible version.
Cisco identifies a 1900W AC power supply module for Secure Firewall 4200 and notes that the 4215 requires ordering the second power supply for redundant power.
Application Scenarios
Use FPR4215-ASA-K9 when the firewall standard remains Cisco Secure ASA and the project needs the Secure Firewall 4215 platform rather than an older Firepower 4100 appliance.
Select this SKU when the port plan starts with eight 1/10/25G SFP28 fixed fiber ports and may add Cisco-confirmed network modules for higher-speed or bypass interface requirements.
Choose the ASA PID when the design documents name ASA operation, ASDM management, ASA contexts, or ASA VPN sizing rather than the FPR4215-NGFW-K9 orderable role.

- In a FPR4215-ASA-K9 vs FPR4225-ASA-K9 comparison, both are 1RU Secure Firewall 4200 ASA chassis with eight 1/10/25G fixed fiber ports, two module slots, and two 1.8 TB SSDs in RAID1.
- The FPR4215-ASA-K9 difference from FPR4225-ASA-K9 is the 4215 model scale: FPR4225-ASA-K9 raises memory to 512 GB, ASA multiprotocol throughput to 85 Gbps, firewall connections to 90 million, and IPsec VPN throughput to 60 Gbps.
- FPR4215-NGFW-K9 keeps the same 4215 hardware tier but changes the orderable role to Threat Defense / NGFW, so its inspection metrics should not be substituted for ASA sizing rows.
- For buyers comparing FPR4215-ASA-K9 vs FPR4225-ASA-K9, which model to choose depends on whether the approved sizing file can stay at the 4215 ASA row or requires the higher 4225 entries shown in the table.
Selection Guide
1. Keep the ASA order identity intact
Select FPR4215-ASA-K9 when the design names Cisco Secure ASA on the Secure Firewall 4215 platform and does not approve a Threat Defense or NGFW orderable PID.
2. Use the 4215 ASA row for sizing
Match this SKU to projects that require 90 Gbps stateful inspection throughput, 65 Gbps multiprotocol throughput, 40 million connections, or 50 Gbps ASA IPsec VPN throughput.
3. Move to 4225 only for higher ASA scale
Choose FPR4225-ASA-K9 instead when the BOM requires the 4225 entries for 512 GB memory, 85 Gbps multiprotocol throughput, 90 million connections, or 25000 maximum VPN peers.
4. Tie optics, modules, and software together
Verify fixed-port transceivers, network module PIDs, ASA release compatibility, ASDM compatibility, and the second power supply before finalizing the hardware list.
Ordering Checklist

Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact appliance PID |
FPR4215-ASA-K9 rather than FPR4215-NGFW-K9 or FPR4215-NGIPS-K9 |
Cisco separates ASA, NGFW, and NGIPS orderable chassis identities for Secure Firewall 4215 |
|
ASA and ASDM compatibility |
Target ASA release and coordinating ASDM version for Secure Firewall 4215 |
Cisco notes that newer ASA versions require a matching ASDM version or a later compatible version |
|
Fixed-port optics |
Supported SFP, SFP+, or SFP28 transceivers for Ethernet 1/1 through 1/8 |
The chassis has eight fixed 1/10/25G fiber ports and Cisco publishes transceiver support by release |
|
Network module plan |
Required 1/10G, 1/10/25G, 40G, 100G, 200G, 400G, or hardware-bypass module |
The two module slots define expansion capacity and can introduce release-specific optics checks |
|
Redundant power |
Whether the order includes the second FPR4200-PWR-AC module |
Cisco notes that the 4215 ships with one 1900W AC module and needs a second module for redundant power |
|
Regional power cords |
Country-specific C21 power cords or jumper cords |
Cisco supports only approved power cords or jumper cords provided for Secure Firewall 4200 |
