quality of service (QoS), while the Packet Transport Optimized line cards are designed for network

deployments where basic scale and QoS is required.

●

Mod80 Modular Line Card: The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Mod80 Modular Line Cards provide customers

with a flexible solution supporting multiple combinations of Ethernet ports, all in a single slot of the Cisco

ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers. Each modular line card supports up to two modular port

adapters that come in the following modular port adapter types:

◦

20-port Gigabit Ethernet

◦

4-port 10-Gigabit Ethernet

Using the modular line cards, the Cisco ASR 9000 Series can support customer applications including

VoD, IPTV, point-to-point video, Internet video, and cloud-based computing. The line cards are available in

Service Edge Optimized and Packet Transport Optimized variants. Service Edge Optimized line cards are

designed for customer deployments requiring high scale, comprehensive services, and enhanced QoS,

while Packet Transport Optimized line cards are designed for network deployments where basic scale and

QoS is required.

●

Power Entry Module and Power Supply Version 2: The new Power Entry Module Version 2 (PEMv2) and

Power Supply Version 2 for the Cisco ASR 9010 and ASR 9006 routers provide investment protection by

offering increased power efficiency and power density per Cisco ASR 9006 and ASR 9010 chassis. Cisco

PEMv2 is capable of holding up to four v2 power supplies. PEMv2 is field upgradeable or may be

configured with the Cisco ASR 9010 or ASR 9006 chassis.

C Form-Factor Pluggable (CFP) optical transceiver: Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.2.0 introduces

support for the Cisco CFP optical transceiver for 100 Gigabit Ethernet applications on Cisco ASR 9000

Series routers. The transceiver is a 100 Gigabit Ethernet long-reach over 4 WDM lanes (LR4) optical

transceiver for distances of up to 10 km.

Table 1 lists the new hardware support added in Cisco IOS XR Software Release 4.2.0 for the Cisco ASR 9000

Series routers.
