Cisco CRS Series 42 Port Gigabit Ethernet
Interface Module

The Cisco

CRS-1 Carrier Routing System is the industry

’s first carrier router offering continuous system operation,

unprecedented service flexibility, and system longevity. The Cisco CRS-1 is powered by Cisco IOS

XR Software

–

a unique self-healing, distributed operating system. As part of a video-enabled, IP Next-Generation Network

(NGN), the Cisco CRS-1 Series platform delivers continuous, always-on operation that easily scales to support the

massive bandwidth requirements of visual networking experiences such as high-definition IPTV and Cisco

TelePresence

. These services demand a platform that delivers predictable forwarding performance and efficient,

intelligent, fabric-based multicast replication. The Cisco CRS-1 Series helps enable the Internet and NGNs to

handle the approaching zettabyte era of carrier IP communications while protecting network investments for

decades to come.

Product Overview

The Cisco CRS Series 42 Port Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module (Figure 1) provides 42 line-rate, IEEE 802.3-

compliant Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Physical interface characteristics can be selected using different modular

Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optics

– short, long, extra long, and copper interfaces are supported.

Extensive per-port and per-VLAN counters simplify network performance monitoring and troubleshooting.
