ASR 9001

This is the Chassis that correlates to the above architecture.

The Chassis is 120 Gbps - 60 for each NP network Processor.

If you get the 9001-S bundle one NP is disabled

So far so good.

For MIC cards.

They will be called MPA by Cisco.

Roughly 40K for 40G - 15K for 20G

The optics are XFP ,SFP, QSFP+

For power you must buy AC or DC

A9K-750W-AC $$

A9K-750W-DC $$

Power cords are C13

You need to pay for the fan.

ASR-9001-FAN $

The Chassis can be made to work Front to Back by getting this kit which are basically ducts.

ASR-9001-PLENUM= $5000

You can also get a zero cost item

Which is ASR-9001-TRAY to tidy your cables

You have a 2 post and a 2 post 23 RU. rack kit. Free too.

So, we are left with the licenses.
