MX75-HW, Meraki MX75 Appliance, router/sec

The Cisco MX75-HW is a next-generation security and SD-WAN appliance for small and medium branch offices that need simple, cloud-managed protection and reliable WAN connectivity. Part of the Cisco Meraki MX Series, it combines stateful firewall, VPN, and intelligent SD-WAN features in a compact 1RU form factor. With up to 1 Gbps stateful firewall throughput and up to 500 Mbps VPN throughput, the MX75-HW can support typical branch traffic patterns for up to 200 clients across Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America. This makes it a strong option for regional headquarters, distributed retail, schools, and remote offices that need consistent performance without complex on-site configuration.

The MX75-HW offers 8 × 1G RJ45 ports for user and server access and 2 × 10G SFP+ uplinks for high-speed WAN or LAN connections, allowing flexible designs for local and cloud applications. Support for up to 256 VLANs lets integrators segment guest, corporate, and voice traffic with clear security policies. For organizations that rely on secure site-to-site communication, the appliance supports up to 100 site-to-site VPN tunnels, suitable for multi-branch deployments and hybrid cloud access.

High availability is supported through warm spare / HA pair mode, which helps distributors and integrators design resilient solutions for critical sites. The integrated AC power supply simplifies deployment, and the device can be installed on a desktop or in a standard 1RU rack, which is useful for both compact offices and structured cabinets. Cloud-based management through the Cisco Meraki dashboard lets partners and IT teams monitor and manage multiple MX75-HW units from one portal, reducing on-site visits and speeding up troubleshooting.

For distributors, the MX75-HW addresses strong demand for subscription-based, cloud-managed security appliances with broad regional compliance including CE, FCC, and IC certifications, which vary by country but support most major markets. For small and medium system integrators, its centralized policy control and easy template deployment help shorten rollout time and minimize configuration errors. For end users, the MX75-HW delivers secure internet access, reliable VPN connectivity, and simplified SD-WAN control, helping maintain business continuity as applications move to the cloud.
