Chapter 1 Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Hardware Overview
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers Compatibility Information
• Power supply redundancy
• Environmental monitoring and reporting functions
• Family of routers using common hardware and software architecture
• Centralized forwarding design (all network traffic passes through one engine)
• Front-to-back airflow—Allows you to mount the router from either front or back into 19-inch
equipment rack
• Supports half-height shared port adapters (HHSPAs) and full-height shared port adapters (FHSPAs)
Note The Cisco ASR 1001 Router does not support full-height SPAs.
• Single midplane design (all connectors on one interface midplane)
• One 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet Management port—To be used only as a management port; not to
be used as an Ethernet interface port
• Both quarter-rate (87.5 MHz) and full-rate (350 MHz) shared port adapter operation
The Cisco QuantumFlow Processor processing provides:
• Architecture to address Cisco ASR 1000 Series router performance, cost, power, and feature
velocity
• Next Generation forwarding and queuing subsystems for Cisco routers to provide data path
acceleration.
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series route processor system performs the following system management
functions:
• Sending and receiving routing protocol updates
• Managing tables, caches, and buffers
• Monitoring interface and environmental status
• Providing Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) management through the console and
Telnet interface
• Accounting for and switching of data traffic
• Booting and reloading images
