Cisco ASR 9901 Hardware Installation Manual page 10

Overview
The Cisco ASR 9901 Router has an integrated route processor (RP) and 42 fixed-configuration ports that
support the following data rates:
• 24 ports that support 1 GE (using SFP) or 10 GE (using SFP+).
• 16 ports that support 1 GE (using SFP).
• 2 ports that support 100 GE (using QSFP28).
The base chassis has a GPS input for stratum-1 clocking, building integrated timing supply (BITS) ports, and
management ports. The following figure shows the front panel of the Cisco ASR 9901 Router.

The Cisco ASR 9001 Router is a compact high-capacity provider edge (PE) router that delivers 120 Gbps of
non-blocking, full-duplex fabric capacity in a two-rack-unit (2RU) form factor. Similar to other routers in the
Cisco ASR 9000 Series, running Cisco IOS XR software images, the Cisco ASR 9001 Router delivers the
features and services found on the ASR 9000 Series platforms, allowing customers to standardize on the same
Cisco IOS XR image. The Cisco ASR 9001 Router has an integrated route processor (RP) and two modular
bays that support 1 GE, 10 GE and 40 GE modular port adapters (MPAs). The base chassis has four integrated
10 GE enhanced small form-factor pluggable (SFP+) ports, a GPS input for stratum-1 clocking, building
integrated timing supply (BITS) ports, and management ports. The following figure shows the front panel of
the Cisco ASR 9001 Router.
