Built for WAN edge/aggregation routing and service provider environments

Data‑plane control and management consolidated via the RP2 module

ENVIRONMENTAL & RELIABILITY:

Operating Temperature: ~0 °C to 40 °C

Storage Temperature: ~‑40 °C to 70 °C

Operating Humidity: ~5% to 85% non‑condensing

Designed with carrier‑grade features: supports redundancy (1+1 RP), Online Insertion & Removal (OIR), NSF (Non‑Stop Forwarding), SSO (Stateful Switchover)

PHYSICAL:

Form Factor: Modular route processor card compatible with ASR 1000 Series chassis (e.g., ASR1004, ASR1006, ASR1009‑X, ASR1013)

Typical Dimensions: Module height approx 0.8 in (2 cm) (single slot height) and width/depth defined by chassis slot

Weight: ~5 lb (≈2.27 kg) (approximate)

COMPATIBILITY & NOTES:

Compatible Devices: Cisco ASR 1000 Series routers that support RP2 modules (ASR1004, ASR1006, ASR1006‑X, ASR1009‑X, ASR1013)

Software/Firmware Requirements: Supports Cisco IOS XE 64‑bit operating system; check chassis firmware version for full feature support

When purchasing refurbished: Verify module condition, memory size (8 GB vs 16 GB), HDD condition, firmware version, and ensure the chassis slot supports the RP2

Ideal for high‑capacity routing and WAN aggregation applications, especially where redundancy and high route‑table scale are required
