The Cisco expansion module (Part Number: PIX-4FE=) is a versatile hardware upgrade designed to expand the connectivity of compatible Cisco systems. This particular module provides four Ethernet ports, offering enhanced network flexibility and scalability for businesses looking to optimise their security infrastructure. It is particularly suited to Cisco's PIX series of firewall appliances, adding multiple communication lanes to handle increased traffic and various network tasks.
In terms of design, the PIX-4FE= is built to support Fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), ensuring high-speed transfer rates that meet the demands of modern enterprises. The four additional ports allow for smooth integration with existing network setups, supporting a range of connections from internal business segments to external networks. It is compatible with certain systems requiring modular networking capabilities and works exceptionally well in firewall deployments where multiple interface configurations are necessary for security and traffic management.
Installation is straightforward, thanks to the module's integration capability with Cisco platforms, and its compact footprint supports easier placement in tight rack environments. The four-port expansion enhances the robustness of any network system, adding significant value, especially for organisations that require extensive connectivity options. It makes expansion easier without needing to replace core hardware, prolonging system life while keeping costs under control.
