40-Gb Network Module - Cisco 3110 Hardware Installation Manual

Overview

40-Gb Network Module

The Secure Firewall 3100 chassis has one network module slot. 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
chassis.
There is one PID for this network module: FPR3K-XNM-4X40G. The FPR3K-XNM-4X40G supports 40-Gb
operation and is supported on the 3130 and 3140. This network module provides full-duplex Ethernet traffic
per port. The 40-Gb network module has four QSFP+. The 40-Gb ports are numbered left to right, Ethernet
X/1 through Ethernet X/4. See
Cisco-supported transceivers.
Starting with FTD 7.2 and ASA 7.18.1, you can break the four 40-Gb ports into four 10-Gb ports using the
supported 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 through Ethernet 2/1/4.

The hardware and the system support hot swapping if you are replacing a network module with the same type
of network module. You must first disable the network port and then reenable it after replacement. If you
replace the 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.
Although you can install the 4-port 40-Gb network in the Secure Firewall 3110 and 3120, the software does
not recognize it because it is not supported.
