Cisco ASA CX 5500-X Models 

The Cisco ASA 5512-X, 5515-X, 5525-X, 5545-X, and 5555-X CX Series Adaptive Security Appliances combine 

the most widely deployed stateful inspection firewall in the industry with a comprehensive suite of next-generation 

network security services for comprehensive security without compromise. They provide multiple security services 

and redundant power supplies and support consistent security enforcement throughout your organization. In 

addition to comprehensive stateful inspection firewall capabilities, optional features include integrated cloud- and 

software-based security services, Cisco AVC, Cisco WSE, Cisco Cloud Web Security (CWS), and IPS. Cisco next-

generation firewalls are managed by 

r. These models vary in their performance and 

throughput capabilities and in the services and number of users that can be supported by each model. Depending 

on the customer requirements and performance needs, these firewalls can be deployed at small office, Internet 

edge, and data center locations. 

This ASA CX series of next-generation firewalls is built on the same proven security platform as the rest of the 

Cisco ASA family of firewalls and delivers exceptional application visibility and control along with superior 

performance and operational efficiency. These firewalls provide next-generation services that make it possible to 

take advantage of new applications and devices without compromising security. Unlike other firewalls, the Cisco 

ASA 5500-X Series keeps pace with rapidly evolving needs by offering end-to-end network intelligence gained by 

combining the visibility of local traffic with in-depth global network intelligence. The Cisco ASA 5500-X Series is 

supported by:
