CSF1210CE-TD-K9, Cisco Secure Firewall 1210 Appliance, td/compact/firewall

The Cisco CSF1210CE-TD-K9 is a compact next-generation firewall appliance designed for small and midsize enterprise networks that need strong perimeter and branch protection. As part of the Cisco Secure Firewall 1200 Series, this desktop, fanless device combines security, performance, and low noise in one platform suitable for offices, retail sites, and small data rooms. The CSF1210CE-TD-K9 runs Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense (FTD) software, so it can deliver advanced threat prevention, application control, and VPN services in a single unified image. Fixed copper Gigabit Ethernet interfaces support reliable WAN and LAN connectivity, making it easy to place this firewall at the network edge or as a secure gateway for remote users.

The fanless compact form factor of the CSF1210CE-TD-K9 helps reduce power consumption and operating noise, which is ideal in open office spaces and small IT closets where a full rack is not available. An external AC power adapter, specific to the Secure Firewall 1210 compact appliance, simplifies power sourcing and replacement and can match common power standards in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America. Desktop deployment is straightforward, and optional mounting accessories for Cisco Secure Firewall 1210 compact models allow flexible installation on walls, shelves, or cabinets when space is limited or when extra physical security is required.

Centralized and local management options give both distributors and integrators flexible ways to support their customers. The CSF1210CE-TD-K9 is supported by Cisco Defense Orchestrator (CDO), which allows multi-site management, consistent policy templates, and fast rollout of configuration changes from the cloud. At the same time, on-box and local management options, aligned with the Secure Firewall 1200 Series, provide direct access for in-country engineers or managed service teams who prefer to operate the firewall on-site. This combination helps reduce deployment time and operational complexity for regional partners and end users.

For small enterprises, branch offices, and distributed retail sites, the CSF1210CE-TD-K9 offers a balance of security functions and ease of use. With Cisco Secure Firewall Threat Defense, it can inspect traffic at the application layer, enforce segmentation between internal networks, and protect users when accessing cloud services and SaaS applications. Fixed Gigabit Ethernet ports provide consistent throughput for typical office workloads such as VoIP, video conferencing, and business applications. By choosing the Cisco CSF1210CE-TD-K9, organizations gain an integrated firewall appliance that fits into modern, space-constrained environments while remaining ready to scale with centralized, cloud-based policy management.
