Cisco ASR-9000V-AC – Expansion module – GigE – 44 ports + 4 x SFP+

Edge and access integrated as one network virtualized (nV) system. That?s what you get with the Cisco? ASR 9000v and Cisco ASR 9000v-V2, which use the Cisco ASR 9000 Series nV technology to integrate access and edge functions. The Cisco ASR 900 0v and Cisco ASR 9000v-V2 operate as an extension shelf of the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers, providing delivery of Cisco ASR 9000 Series services from the Cisco ASR 9000v or Cisco ASR 9000v-V2. Using nV technology lets you dramatically reduce your operational costs by simplifying the access and edge network and by delivering tremendous service and network scale through the use of the Cisco ASR 9000 distributed control plane, which extends feature processing to the access layer.

Product Overview
Deployed adjacent to, or remotely from, its Cisco ASR 9000 Series host, the environmentally hardened, front-access, low-power, ultra-compact Cisco ASR 9000v and ASR 9000v-V2 delivers ASR 9000 Series services and scale at locations that are otherwise unachievable by either an access system or an edge system. Because the nV technology extends the Cisco ASR 9000 Series control plane and management interface over a fabric port that incorporates the Cisco ASR 9000v and Cisco ASR 9000v-V2 as a component of the Cisco ASR 9000 Series host, installation, turn-up, Element Management System (EMS) and Network Management System (NMS) integration, and service activation can be accomplished in a matter of minutes.
