Description

The Cisco Meraki MX85 is a cloud-managed security & SD-WAN appliance — small to medium branch — up to 250 users. It delivers a stateful firewall, site-to-site Auto VPN, and unified threat management, all configured and monitored from the Meraki dashboard with no on-site controller.

  • Interfaces: 2 x 1 GbE SFP + 2 x 1 GbE (RJ45) (WAN) + 8 x 1 GbE (RJ45) + 2 x 1 GbE SFP (LAN); 1 x WAN port with PoE+ (802.3at, to power an external MG gateway).
  • Integrated Auto VPN & SD-WAN with dynamic path selection; advanced threat protection (IDS/IPS, Cisco AMP, content filtering) unlocks with the Advanced Security or Secure SD-WAN Plus license.

A per-appliance Meraki license is required (Enterprise, Advanced Security, or Secure SD-WAN Plus) and is sold separately — choose your tier and term below.
