The ASR 5000 Platform
The ASR 5000 multimedia core platform is designed for deployment in multimedia-enabled core networks.
It features a distributed architecture that allows all tasks and services to be allocated across the entire platform.
This platform allows operators to deploy more efficient mobile networks that support a greater number of
concurrent calls, optimize resource usage, and deliver enhanced services, while providing scalability.
ASR 5000 hardware components support the following features:
• 1:1 redundancy for all hardware elements
• Hot-swappable sub-components
• Inter-chassis session recovery (ICSR)
• CLI support for telnet, SSH, and local login through a console port
