The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers provide unsurpassed speeds, up through 400 Gigabit Ethernet, with scale and high density. The Cisco ASR 9000 and ASR 9900 Series Routers provide flexible options for high density 1 Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 25 Gigabit Ethernet, 40 Gigabit Ethernet, 100 Gigabit Ethernet and 400 Gigabit Ethernet ports without the need for a complete chassis replacement. These line cards, offered in base and extended-scale configurations, are complemented by the nonblocking fabric (on the RSP for the Cisco ASR 9006, ASR 9010, ASR 9906, ASR 9910 and ASR 9904 Routers and on separate fabric cards for the Cisco ASR 9906, ASR 9910, ASR 9912 and ASR 9922 Routers), and by the innovative backplane, thermal, and power infrastructure on the chassis.
Cisco ASR 9006 and ASR 9010 systems are designed to the same high standards of performance and reliability; they feature the same power and thermal innovations; and they can share the line cards, PEMs, and power supplies for maximum flexibility in your network planning. The RSPs can be shared between the Cisco ASR 9010, ASR 9006, ASR 9910 and ASR 9906 and ASR 9904 chassis; the Cisco ASR 9922 and ASR 9912 chassis come with their own route processors and up to seven fabric cards. The Cisco ASR 9910 and ASR 9906 each come with their own chassis specific five fabric cards.
