Cisco Part Number: FPR3K-XNM-4X40G= is a Cisco SECURE FIREWALL 3100 4-port 40G QSFP+ Network Module, spare
The Secure Firewall 3100 series offers flexible network module options with the NM-2 slot, accommodating additional ports and different interface types. The FPR-X-NM-4X40G= module, compatible with the 3130 and 3140 models, enables 40-Gb Ethernet operation and includes four QSFP+ ports for high-capacity data transfer. Users can also split each 40-Gb port into four 10-Gb interfaces using breakout cables, providing up to 16 additional 10-Gb interfaces.
The modules support hot-swapping, allowing easy replacement without needing to reboot, as long as the replacement is with a similar module. However, for non-equivalent module replacements, rebooting is required for proper module recognition. Notably, while the 4-port 40-Gb module can be physically installed in the 3105, 3110, and 3120 models, the software does not recognize it in these configurations.
For specific installation steps and compatibility, refer to the configuration guide for further details. This flexible design in Secure Firewall 3100 series provides scalability to meet varying network requirements.
