4-Port 40-Gb Network Module
The Secure Firewall 4200 chassis has two network module slots named NM-2 and NM-3 (left to right on the
front panel). Network modules are optional, removable I/O modules that provide either additional ports or
different interface types. The network module plugs into the chassis on the front panel. See Front Panel, on
page 8 for the location of the network module slots on the chassis.
The FPR-X-NM-4X40G supports 40-Gb operation. This network module provides full-duplex Ethernet traffic
per port. The 40-Gb network module has four QSFP+ ports. The 40-Gb ports are numbered left to right,
Ethernet 2/1 or 3/1 through Ethernet 2/4 or 3/4. See Supported SFP/SFP+/QSFP+ Transceivers , on page 31
for the list of Cisco-supported transceivers.
You can break each of the four 40-Gb ports into four 10-Gb ports using the supported breakout cables (see
Supported SFP/SFP+/QSFP+ Transceivers , on page 31 for a list of the breakout cables). With the four-port
40-Gb network module, you now have 16 10-Gb interfaces. The added interfaces are Ethernet 2/1/1 or 3/1/1
through Ethernet 2/4/4 or 3/4/4.
The hardware and the system support hot swapping if you are replacing a network module with the same type
of network module. If you replace the 4-port 40-Gb network module with another supported network module,
you must reboot the chassis so that the new network module is recognized. See the configuration guide for
your operating system for the detailed procedures for managing network modules.
