Cloud-managed security appliance for branches

The Meraki MX250-HW is a cloud-managed security and SD-WAN appliance built for distributed sites, campuses or datacentre VPN concentration. It delivers stateful firewall throughput of 4 Gbps, advanced security throughput of 2 Gbps and VPN throughput of 1 Gbps with support for up to 1,000 concurrent VPN tunnels. Redundant 250 W AC power supplies operate from 100-220 V at 50/60 Hz.

Rack-mount installation with modular power supplies

The unit fits a standard 19-inch rack at 1.75 inches high and 17.30 inches deep, weighing 16.00 lbs. Two hot-swap 250 W AC power supplies slide into the rear for redundancy; each connects to 100-220 V mains. Licensing is purchased separately and must be applied in the Meraki dashboard before the appliance passes traffic.

Verify uplink media and license tier before ordering

Eight RJ45 and eight SFP LAN ports plus eight 10 GbE SFP+ LAN ports provide flexible copper or fibre connectivity, while two 10 GbE SFP+ WAN ports and a USB cellular failover port handle upstream links. Confirm you have compatible SFP or SFP+ transceivers for the desired links and select the correct Meraki license tier for the security features you need.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the MX250-HW is passing traffic at the rated 4 Gbps stateful firewall throughput after installation?

Monitor the cloud dashboard for real-time throughput graphs and confirm the appliance reports 4 Gbps stateful firewall capacity under load.

What ships with the MX250-HW and what must I purchase separately to operate it?

The unit includes two modular 250 W AC power supplies; a Meraki enterprise license is required and sold separately for cloud management and advanced security features.

Which WAN interface should I use for a 10 Gbps upstream link on the MX250-HW?

Use either of the two 10 GbE SFP+ WAN ports; both support 10 Gbps connectivity for high-speed upstream links.
