Information About A9K-40GE-B
The A9K-40GE-B line card is engineered to deliver high-capacity Gigabit Ethernet connectivity within Cisco ASR 9000 Series chassis. Supporting 40 SFP-based 1G Ethernet ports, this medium queue model is optimized for service scalability and subscriber management with support for up to 192,000 queues and 128,000 policers. It integrates 4 GB DRAM and enables flexible Ethernet Flow Points (EFPs) up to 16,000 per card, making it highly suitable for multi-service edge deployments.
Key Features:
- High Port Density: Supports 40 SFP-based 1G Ethernet ports for large-scale aggregation and edge applications.
- Flexible Ethernet Compatibility: Accommodates 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 10 Gbps Ethernet (IEEE 802.3 compliant).
- Queue Management: Offers up to 192,000 queues and multiple queue models for differentiated service delivery.
- Advanced Policing Capability: Supports up to 128,000 policers for fine-grained traffic control and service guarantees.
- Rich EFP Support: Enables up to 16,000 Ethernet Flow Points, enhancing network segmentation and service flexibility.
- Scalable Memory Resources: Includes 4 GB DRAM for reliable data processing and flow handling.
- Power-Efficient Operation: Ranges from 310W typical to 630W maximum depending on queue type.
- Modular Design: Selectable queue configuration (low, base, extended) allows adaptation to specific traffic demands.
- Environmental Durability: Operates reliably across wide temperature and humidity ranges, including short-term extremes up to 131°F.
- Carrier-Grade Performance: Built for service provider networks needing high throughput, reliability, and modularity.
The A9K-40GE-B delivers carrier-class Gigabit Ethernet connectivity with versatile traffic handling capabilities, ideal for aggregation, peering, and edge routing environments.
