What replaces the Cisco FMC2600-K9?

Cisco's recommended migration is the Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center 2700 Chassis. Uniqcli, an authorized Cisco partner, can quote the replacement TAA-compliant and GPC-payable, and help plan the cutover.

Can I still get support for the FMC2600-K9?

Yes, until the Last Date of Support (Nov 30, 2028) with an active SmartNet/Solution Support contract. After LDoS, independent third-party maintenance can extend hardware coverage. Uniqcli can review your install base, confirm coverage, and quote extended support or a refresh side by side.
