The product is a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) firewall based on the Cisco 5516 Adaptive Security Appliance and encased in a military-grade rugged chassis. It provides eight integrated Ethernet 10/100/1000BASE-T(x) copper ports, supports Cisco FirePOWER services and offers 1.8 Gbps maximum throughput. It also provides up to 250,000 concurrent sessions and handles up to 20,000 new connections per second.

The firewall features an all-aluminium chassis and is available in either a standard 19″ rack mount or transit case EIA form factor. The 1U firewall can be mounted using Delrin glides or as a fixed mount (front and rear). The unit measures under 33 cm deep, weighs 6.35 kg and is engineered to MIL-STD-810 and MIL-STD-461 with EMI, humidity, vibration and shock kits available.

The unit is specifically designed to provide high-performance connectivity for cybersecurity protection, secure communication, remote monitoring and maintenance in situations where security, quality, low power consumption and long-term availability are important.
