Features
A Cisco Threat Grid appliance provides safe and highly secure on-premises advanced malware analysis, with
deep threat analytics and content. Threat Grid Appliances provide the complete Threat Grid malware analysis
platform, installed on a single UCS server.
Many organizations that handle sensitive data, such as banks, health services, etc., must follow various
regulatory rules and guidelines that will not allow certain types of files, such as malware artifacts, to be sent
outside of the network for malware analysis. By maintaining a Cisco Threat Grid Appliance on-premises,
organizations are able to send suspicious documents and files to it to be analyzed without leaving the network.
The Cisco Threat Grid M5 appliance supports Threat Grid Version 3.5.27 and later, and appliance version
2.7.2 and later.
See Product ID Numbers, on page 11 for a list of the field-replaceable product IDs (PIDs) associated with
the Threat Grid M5 appliance. You can remove and replace drives and power supplies. For all other internal
component failures, you must send your chassis for return material authorization (RMA).
The following table lists the features of the Threat Grid M5.

Power Cord Specifications
Each power supply has a separate power cord. Standard power cords or jumper power cords are available for
connection to the Threat Grid M5. The jumper power cords for use in racks are available as an optional
alternative to the standard power cords
If you do not order the optional power cord with the system, you are responsible for selecting the appropriate
power cord for the product. Using a incompatible power cord with this product may result in electrical safety
hazard. Orders delivered to Argentina, Brazil, and Japan must have the appropriate power cord ordered with
the system.
Only the approved power cords and jumper cords provided with the Threat Grid M5 are supported.
Note
The following power cords and jumper cords are supported.
