Data Processing Card
The ASR 5500 chassis supports multiple DPCs/UDPCs in the rear facing slots of the chassis.
The DPC/UDPC has two identical CPU subsystems with each containing:
Two six-core processors for a total of 24 cores per card
96 GB of RAM
NPU for session data flow offload
Crypto offload engines located on a daughter card
DPC/UDPCs manage subscriber sessions and control traffic.
Data Processing Card version 2
The DPC2/UDPC2 is the second generation Data Processing Card (DPC) for the ASR5500. It offers increased
performance versus the first generation DPC, while maintaining backwards compatibility with other ASR 5500 cards.
The raw input/output has been increased from 80Gbps (DPC/UDPC) to 150Gbps (DPC2/UDPC2).

The raw input/output has been increased from 80Gbps (DPC/UDPC) to 150Gbps (DPC2/UDPC2).
Important:
The DPC2 requires StarOS 18.0 or higher. The UDPC2 requires StarOS 18.2 or higher with a special
Universal PID chassis license. See the Chassis, UMIO, UDPC and UDPC2 License Requirements appendix for
additional information.
additional information.
The DPC2/UDPC2 has three CPU subsystems. Each subsystem consists of two twelve-core processors that are paired
with a Platform Controller Hub (PCH). This CPU configuration supports a total of 72 cores per card.

crypto offload engine.
The DPC2/UDPC2 is equipped with the Cisco Anti-Counterfeit Technology 2 (ACT2) chip. The ACT2 services
multiple functions including:
multiple functions including:
IEEE 802.1AR standard based Immutable Identity
Extensible set of cryptographic functions
Secure storage capabilities (cryptographic keys and credential storage).
Installation of customers’ own identity certificates (802.1AR LDevID)
Source for true random entropy (NIST SP-800-90 certifiable)
The DPC2/UDPC2 is not equipped with NPUs.
Important:
The DPC2/UDPC2 must not be intermixed with the DPC/UDPC in an ASR 5500 chassis. All data
processing cards in the chassis must be of the same type.
