Check Point CPAC-DP-X-90-50-8-10G-NIC-M-FIN | DefensePro X50/X90 Pluggable 8x10G SFP+ NIC Module, Factory Installed

Q: Which Check Point appliances is this NIC module compatible with?
A: This 8x10G NIC module is compatible with the Check Point DefensePro X50, X50 HP, X90, and X90 HP DDoS protection appliances. It is not designed for use with other Check Point appliance families.

Q: What does 'Factory Installed' (FIN) mean for this module?
A: Factory Installed means this module must be ordered at the time of the DefensePro appliance purchase and is installed and validated by Check Point during manufacturing. It cannot be retrofitted to an appliance already in the field.

Q: What type of ports does this module provide?
A: The module provides 8 x 10GbE SFP+ ports, enabling high-throughput connectivity for DDoS traffic inspection and allowing flexible network segmentation across multiple uplinks or inspection zones.

Q: Why would I need to expand the NIC capacity on a DefensePro X50 or X90 appliance?
A: Organisations with high port density requirements — such as service providers or large enterprises — use this module to increase the number of network interfaces available for inline DDoS inspection, supporting more traffic segments without deploying additional appliances.

Q: Can I purchase this module in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller with this module in stock and ready to ship. Contact us for volume pricing, lead times, or to confirm compatibility with your existing DefensePro appliance order.

Q: Does the High Performance (HP) variant affect module compatibility?
A: No. This NIC module is compatible with both the standard and High Performance (HP) variants of the DefensePro X50 and X90, making it a single part number suitable across the full X50/X90 appliance range.
