Cisco ASA 5500-X Series 6-Port GE Interface Cards

Cisco ASA 5500-X Series 6-port GE Interface Cards extend the I/O profile of the Cisco ASA 5512-X and Cisco ASA 5515-X by providing additional GE ports. The cards provide the following benefits:

- Better segmentation of network traffic (into separate security zones)
- Fiber-optic cable connectivity for long-distance communication
- Load sharing of traffic as well as protection against link failure through the use of EtherChannel
- Support for jumbo Ethernet frames of up to 9000 bytes
- Protection against cable failure for the most demanding Active/Active failover and full-mesh firewall deployments
