About the Cisco ASR 9010 Aggregations Services Router

The Cisco ASR 9010 Aggregation Service Router is part of the Cisco ASR 9000 series of routers released by American technology company Cisco Systems in 2008.   

Designed for service providers that require a modular, scalable, edge and core routing solution, the Cisco ASR 9010 is equipped with advanced feature sets, hardware redundancy, and scalable architecture to deliver reliable services and excellent performance.

Built around a 21 RU (Rack Unit) form factor. The Cisco ASR 9010 supports up to 8 line cards and 2 Route Switch Processors (RSP’s) which offer high-density 10GB Ethernet and 100GB Ethernet connectivity options. With a wide range of interface options, the Cisco ASR 9010 is capable of a maximum throughput of 32 Tbs whilst providing high-level bandwidth capabilities able to support billions of devices. The Cisco ASR 9010 features a higher level of scalability than previously seen on Cisco aggregation services edge routers within this price range. 

Utilising Cisco’s Route Switch processor (RSP), which acts as a processing engine to control the plane and data plane to provide switching and local management for the router. The Cisco ASR 9010 router, supports MPLS, Layer 3 VPNs (L3VPN), Layer 2 VPNs, and VPLS to allow network operators to automate and manage their switching and routing options more easily.

With several built-in redundant systems, the ASR 9010 has redundant power supplies, cooling fans, and hardware redundancy across a range of common components, many of which are hot-swappable meaning replacement components can be changed out without the need to power down the router, allowing network operators to maintain network connectivity. It also supports non-stop forwarding (NSF) and stateful switchover (SSO) to help ensure that continuous systems operation is delivered when replacing components or upgrading the platform. These features are enhanced by its user-friendly operating system.

The Cisco ASR 9010 provides exceptional management and control capabilities for network operators through the use of the Cisco IOS XR Software operating system. It can use protected memory spaces for applications or processes and a package-based distribution model meaning optional features such as multicast routing can be installed or removed as necessary without the need to take this router out of service. These features mean the Cisco IOS XR software working in tandem with the hardware allows for modularity, and easy upgrades, helping improve overall system performance.

Repair capability for the Cisco ASR 9010

At TXO we believe we should aim to reduce the environmental impact of the telecoms sector across the supply chain, which is why we make it our mission to support the circular economy. As part of this, we offer a full third-party repair service that focuses on refurbishing and repairing many components for the Cisco ASR 9010 aggregation services router, as well as many others across the full range of the Cisco ASR 9000 family. 

Our team of experienced system engineers based at our advanced engineering facilities in Solihull complete over 12,000 repairs every year. With an in-depth knowledge of core telecom repairs including optical, IP and radio-based technologies they are able to ensure the clients we work with can maintain optimum service levels and minimise disruption to the operation of their business. 

As part of our expert repair and refurbishment service, we will often conduct pre-emptive repairs to Cisco ASR 9000 components that are susceptible to developing faults. This helps prevent future repairs from being required and extends the longevity of your existing Cisco networks. 

On top of our extensive range of parts available, we are also able to procure replacement parts for the Cisco ASR 9000, if we don’t already have them available in stock. And, to ensure that you experience minimal disruption to your business operations, we also offer an advanced replacement service, where we deliver components to you before a repair is carried out, therefore ensuring minimal downtime.
