Description

Mixed-density line card delivering 4x 10 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP+) and 16x 1 Gigabit Ethernet (SFP) for ASR 9000 Series, tuned for packet transport. The TR profile is ideal for MPLS transport, Carrier Ethernet, and cost-efficient aggregation where deterministic forwarding and OAM are key. Requires compatible SFP+ and SFP optics.

Features

- Balanced 10G/1G mix to bridge core and access layers
- TR-optimized forwarding for transport networks
- Rich OAM toolset for SLA-backed services
- Carrier Ethernet and MPLS transport readiness
- Fabric-integrated performance on ASR 9000 chassis
- IOS XR-based operations and automation support

FAQs

Q: Can the SFP+ ports run at 1G?
A: SFP+ ports are generally intended for 10G operation. Check the specific hardware and IOS XR release notes to confirm any 1G fallback capabilities.

Q: Are optics included?
A: No. SFP+ and SFP modules are not included and must be purchased separately.

Q: What advantages does the TR profile provide?
A: TR is streamlined for transport scenarios, emphasizing deterministic forwarding, MPLS-TP, and Carrier Ethernet with robust OAM.

Q: Is MPLS supported?
A: Yes, MPLS-based transport features are supported subject to software release and licensing.

Q: What chassis fabric or RSP do I need?
A: Requirements vary by chassis generation and software. Consult the ASR 9000 release notes and hardware guides for supported combinations.
