Cisco ASR 9000
Published: November 10th, 2008
Cisco has released, as announced, some information on a new Access router platform. It is not as anticipated by many called the ASR14000, but it is, surprise, the ASR9000.
At the time of writing, not all of the information has been published on the Cisco Website so I can’t provide a lot of details yet, but to give you an idea, here are some facts as published in the brochure:
- 6 slot and 10 slot configuration
- 400 gigabits per slot
- 6.4 terabits per chassis
- IOS XR
- Cisco Advanced Video Services Modules (AVSM)
- Linecards are Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) ready
- Modular power supplies, brought online as required when capacity is increased
More details will follow once they have been published by Cisco.
