No one is really sure why it happened, but about 6 months ago, the entire Cisco ASA line became virtually non-existent in all channels. Lead times were quoted at 2 months+, and most people that came across one of these ASAs weren’t letting them go cheap. ASA5505, ASA5510 and ASA5520s were all trading at, or above, their list prices!
Mostly everyone I talked to during the supply chain issue had a different explanation, and all of them seemed feasible. Some people had it pegged as a Copyright issue with the ASA hardware design. Others said Cisco was hanging onto their inventory until Q2 to offset some acquisitions. Then there was the fact that to run the new ASA images, customers were going to have to upgrade the memory on their devices. Also, the manufacturer of one the chips on the ASA board ran out of them. Somali pirates seized a ship full of ASAs? The oil spill? Global warming? Space aliens?
Whatever the case, we’re now seeing the ASAs coming back into distribution, and the prices for used devices are starting to return back to where they should be. Here is the Cisco ASA list pricing. If you’d like a quote on a new or used device, contact us
