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 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 enables 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-1 Series 4-Port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module (Figure 1) provides four line-
rate, IEEE 802.3-compliant 10 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. Physical connections can be made
using modular XENPAK pluggable optics. DWDM wavelengths are supported with the proper
XENPAK, enabling the Cisco CRS Series router to be directly connected into an optical filter
module, such as the Cisco ONS 15454 reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM). This
allows service providers to increase efficiencies, improve reliability, and reduce operational and
capital costs through elimination of expensive and bulky optical transponder equipment, even as
video-based applications rapidly increase traffic in their DWDM networks.
