Firebox 10 Gbps SFP+ expansion module

The WatchGuard WG8594 adds four SFP+ ports to compatible Firebox M-series firewalls, delivering 10 Gbps fibre connectivity for optical networks. It targets administrators expanding uplink capacity on M470, M570, M670, M4600 or M5600 appliances.

Replaces single-port or copper uplinks

Swapping a single 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps copper module for this four-port fibre card consolidates multiple high-speed links in one slot. The upgrade is justified when aggregate throughput or link redundancy demands exceed what a single port can provide.

Sustained 10 Gbps across four fibres

Each SFP+ interface maintains line-rate 10 Gigabit Ethernet under continuous load, supporting 10GBase-X optics without throttling. The module draws power from the Firebox chassis, so thermal headroom matches the host appliance's rated operating envelope.

Questions about this item

What firewall models accept the WG8594 4-port 10 Gbps SFP+ transceiver?

The module is compatible with Firebox M470, M570, M670, M4600 and M5600 appliances.

How is the transceiver installed in a Firebox, and what step is often missed?

Slide the module into an available expansion slot until it clicks, then insert SFP+ transceivers into each of the four ports before cabling.

What ongoing maintenance does the 4-port SFP+ expansion module require?

No scheduled maintenance is needed; if a port fails, replace the individual SFP+ transceiver rather than the whole module.
