The Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers provide unsurpassed 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Gigabit Ethernet scale and density. The Cisco ASR 9000 and ASR 9900 Series routers provide an in-place upgrade roadmap to a higher density of 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports without the need for a complete chassis replacement. These line cards, offered in base and extended-scale configurations, are complemented by the nonblocking fabric (on the Route Switch Processor [RSP] for the Cisco 9006, 9010 and 9904 routers and on separate fabric cards for the Cisco 9912 and 9922 routers), and by the innovative backplane (BP), thermal, and power infrastructure on the chassis.
