Frequently asked questions

When is the Cisco RV260-K9-NA end of life?

Cisco announced End-of-Sale for the RV260-K9-NA effective Sep 15, 2021. The Last Date of Support (LDoS) is Oct 31, 2026, after which Cisco no longer provides support. It is past its last date of support.

What replaces the Cisco RV260-K9-NA?

Cisco's recommended migration is the Cisco Meraki MX68 Cloud Managed Security Appliance. 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 RV260-K9-NA?

Not from Cisco. The RV260-K9-NA passed its Last Date of Support (Oct 31, 2026), so Cisco TAC, hardware replacement, and SmartNet renewals are no longer available. Independent third-party maintenance can still cover the hardware itself, typically well below OEM renewal rates. Uniqcli can review your install base, confirm coverage, and quote extended support or a refresh side by side.
