FAQs

Q: How does the SE profile differ from TR?
A: SE is tuned for service and subscriber scale at the edge with rich QoS/policy; TR is tuned for maximum throughput for core roles.

Q: Are QSFP28 transceivers included?
A: Transceivers are typically sold separately. Choose SR4, LR4, CWDM4, PSM4, DAC, or AOC based on reach and cabling.

Q: Can this line card be used in the core?
A: Yes, but SE is best suited for services-rich edge roles. For pure throughput-centric core, the TR variant is often preferred.

Q: What software is required?
A: A compatible IOS XR release for the ASR 9000 platform is required. Consult the software compatibility matrix for exact versions.

Q: Does it require specific RSP/fabric modules?
A: Yes. Ensure your chassis has supported RSP and fabric capacity for this 100G line card.
