FPR4245-NGFW-K9 Description
FPR4245-NGFW-K9 is a Cisco Secure Firewall 4245 NGFW chassis in the Cisco Secure Firewall 4200 Series, built as a 1RU Threat Defense firewall appliance for high-throughput security edge and data center inspection roles. The SKU maps to the 4245 next generation firewall orderable identity, provides eight fixed 1/10/25G SFP28 fiber data ports plus two 1/10/25G SFP28 management ports, includes two hot-swappable network module slots, and is sized by Cisco for 140 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 60 million concurrent sessions with AVC, and 140 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput.

Product Performance
Key Features
The Cisco hardware guide identifies FPR4245-NGFW-K9 as the Secure Firewall 4245 next generation firewall chassis, which separates this order from ASA and NGIPS appliance PIDs.
The 4245 row provides 140 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 60 million AVC sessions, and 140 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput for designs that outgrow the 4225 NGFW entry.
Cisco release notes introduced Secure Firewall 4215, 4225, and 4245 with Threat Defense 7.4.0 and state that these devices must be managed with Firewall Management Center instead of device manager.
The chassis starts with eight fixed 1/10/25-Gbps SFP28 fiber data ports plus two SFP28 management ports, which defines the base optics list before add-on modules are selected.
Two hot-swappable network module slots allow Cisco-listed 1G, 10G, 25G, 40G, 100G, 200G, 400G, and hardware-bypass module choices when the release plan supports them.
The 4245 hardware specification uses dual 1900 W AC power modules and high-line 200 to 240 VAC input, making rack power verification part of the purchase approval.
Application Scenarios
Select FPR4245-NGFW-K9 when the design calls for the Secure Firewall 4245 NGFW appliance and the approved sizing worksheet needs the 140 Gbps Threat Defense row.
Use this SKU when operations are standardized on Firewall Management Center and the firewall plan does not call for an ASA orderable appliance.
Deploy this model when the base appliance must begin with eight 25G-capable SFP28 data ports and still reserve two module bays for approved high-speed or fail-to-wire interfaces.

- In a FPR4245-NGFW-K9 vs FPR4225-NGFW-K9 comparison, both use the 1RU 4200 Series layout, but FPR4245-NGFW-K9 raises memory to 1 TB, FW + AVC + IPS throughput to 140 Gbps, AVC sessions to 60 million, and IPsec VPN throughput to 140 Gbps.
- The FPR4245-NGFW-K9 difference from FPR4245-ASA-K9 is the software role and performance table: FPR4245-NGFW-K9 follows the Threat Defense / NGFW rows, while FPR4245-ASA-K9 follows ASA rows for firewall and VPN metrics.
- For buyers comparing FPR4245-NGFW-K9 vs FPR4225-NGFW-K9, which model to choose should follow the required 4200 Series capacity tier and the high-line AC power plan.
- In a FPR4245-NGFW-K9 vs FPR4245-ASA-K9 comparison, keep the same 4245 hardware tier only when the approved operating model changes from Threat Defense to Cisco Secure ASA.
Selection Guide
1. Lock the Threat Defense orderable role
Choose FPR4245-NGFW-K9 when the bill of materials names a Secure Firewall 4245 NGFW appliance for Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense.
2. Use the 4245 NGFW row for capacity approval
Select this SKU when the design needs 140 Gbps FW + AVC + IPS throughput, 60 million AVC sessions, 800K new connections per second with AVC, or 140 Gbps IPsec VPN throughput.
3. Keep ASA substitution out of the quote
Use FPR4245-ASA-K9 only when the firewall design explicitly calls for Cisco Secure ASA management and ASA performance metrics instead of Threat Defense.
4. Verify power and interface choices together
Confirm 200 to 240 VAC high-line input, supported optics, selected network modules, Firewall Management Center planning, and subscription licensing before quote approval.
Ordering Checklist
|
Review Area |
Required Decision |
Source-Based Risk |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact NGFW PID |
Confirm FPR4245-NGFW-K9 rather than FPR4245-ASA-K9 or FPR4245-NGIPS-K9 |
Cisco separates 4245 orderable identities by security software role |
|
Threat Defense release |
Confirm the deployment is planned for the Secure Firewall 4200 Threat Defense release path |
Cisco introduced Secure Firewall 4215, 4225, and 4245 with Threat Defense 7.4.0 |
|
Management method |
Confirm Firewall Management Center or approved centralized management |
Cisco states 4200 Threat Defense devices must be managed with Firewall Management Center and do not support device manager |
|
Fixed-port optics |
Match SFP, SFP+, SFP28, DAC, or AOC media to supported Cisco transceiver tables |
Fixed data and management ports are 1/10/25-Gbps SFP28 interfaces |
|
Network modules |
Select only Cisco-listed 4200 Series network modules and check release support for high-speed options |
Module selection affects interface speed, optics, and hardware-bypass behavior |
|
Power input |
Confirm 200 to 240 VAC high-line rack power and country-specific cords |
The 4245 hardware row lists high-line AC input and 1380 W system input power |
