Cisco ASR 1002-X Overview And Installation page 2

Cisco ASR 1002-X Router Description
• Hardware-based encryption with 4 Gbps of cryptography bandwidth.
• An integrated route processor with upgradeable BootROM and 8 GB eUSB bulk storage.
• 4 GB, 8GB, or 16 GB memory. The memory unit is field replaceable. By default, the router is shipped
with the 4 GB memory unit.
Note
If you plan to use the software redundancy feature on the router, you must order either the 8 GB memory unit
or the 16 GB memory unit.
• Two USB ports for USB flash sticks.
• 1 + 1 redundant AC or DC power supplies.
• Stratum 3 network clocking per GR-1244-CORE, with T1/E1 BITS interface, SPAs, or any of the six
built-in Gigabit Ethernet ports can be used as timing sources.
• Console ports and auxiliary ports, Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps network management ports.
• Clocking, which includes Stratum 3/G.813 Clocking, BITS, In/Out, and GPS input/output interface as
well as a ToD interface. The router supports network synchronization clock prioritization.
• Three half-height SPA slots, which can accommodate any combination of three half-height SPAs or one
half-height SPA and one full-height SPA. Each SPA slot can support a throughput of up to 10 Gbps.
With the exception of the 2-Port Gigabit Synchronous Ethernet SPA (SPA-2X1GE-SYNCE) and the
Cisco WebEx Node SPA, all the SPAs supported by the other Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation
Services Routers are supported by the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router.
Note
On the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router, the copper small form-factor pluggable (SFP) port's flow control is on,
regardless of the duplex setting. In contrast, on the Cisco ASR 1002 Router, the copper SFP port's flow control
is off when the duplex setting is Half.
• Built-in 6x1GE SPA providing six SPF-based Gigabit Ethernet connections, designated as SPA bay 0.
For optical SFPs, the Gigabit Ethernet ports are SyncE capable. The Gigabit Ethernet ports are not SyncE
capable for copper SFPs.
For information about the SFP transceiver modules that are compatible with the Cisco ASR 1002-X Built-in
Gigabit Ethernet Ports (6x1GE), refer to the "Modular Optics Compatibility" section in the
Series Aggregation Services Routers SIP and SPA Hardware Installation Guide
• An optional hard drive.
The forwarding bandwidth provided by the Cisco ASR 1002-X Router's ESP can be upgraded to 36 Gbps,
depending on the Cisco software license that you install. The power supply modules of the router are
field-replaceable units.
